Taste in music probably varies more wildly than any other form of popular media, but I just had to bring up this album. It came out a few days ago, and I've only listened to it once so far, but I love it.

Starboy was my favorite album of 2016 and this is an amazing follow-up.

I really didn't think The Weeknd had it in him prior to Starboy, but yeah, this boy is mega talented. The Variety just stated that he is "one of the most successful musicians of the past decade testing the balance between innovation and commerciality as much as anyone today." This is so true. I hate pop music with a passion normally, but this lands so well.

This is an amazing album, an 8.5/10 for me, and it really shows the perfect marriage between the elements of all his past works.

However, Donald Glover Presents (03.15.2020) is my favourite album of 2020 so far and is better for me as it shows a musical genius in his zone.

Listen to the album and you'll find a flawlessly crafted amalgamation of sounds, styles and concepts that fuse together to create an absolutely outstanding piece of art.

Heavy Prince vibes from DGP if you're into that style of Music.

Yea I really like his new song on this album. Very talented guy and doesn't just copy and paste like most other artists.
 
The music is really good. It has character and it's very evocative and sexy, but i'm just too old to tolerate the autotune voice. At this point i just tell you straight as it's: it sounds like shit.

It's just unpleasant to hear.
