The Weeknd is releasing a new album in 20 days, will it flop?

There's no hype for this album. I think he'll debut with okay numbers, but will underperform for his standards.

He is a male artist so even if he underperforms the scrutiny and narrative of him being "over" will be absent; he will remain unbothered. If a female artist had the most monthly listeners and released an album with little to no noise she would be panned and branded as a massive flop which would be hard to recover from

again... where is his last lead tho

It flopped. The single that followed is doing good. One flop single doesn't change the fact he's still massively successful

I'm a fan of the Weeknd since BBTM and it's the first time I'm not that exited about a release from him, for me he delivered smash albums one after the other, Starboy was epic, After Hours even more and then there was Dawn FM, my favourite album. But with HUT, it's the first time I'm not feeling the singles, DITF is so bland and cheap and uninspired, it really sounds like an unfinished demo, Timeless is nowhere near Heartless or Party Monster. There is only São Paulo that gives me a little hope. Still exited and curious for the album tho, but the rest of the songs must be incredible to make me forget the first two singles

Far from a flop but similar to Dawn FM

He will do fine. But "Dancing in the Flames" flopping is really shocking to me. It's a great pop song and the main instrumental riff throughout screams hit single. I can see why the label put it out first.

 

It flopping means the 80s-influenced synth-pop trend is over thank God I already released all my 80s synth-pop tracks

 

 

Tbh I thought it sounded "too clean"... like the song needed an edge.
