Damn that's some good stuff.

Kinda has a Blues feel to it even though it's a soul/R&B song.

Thursday is okay on the first couple spins. Not as good as House of Balloons in my opinion. Sounds too much like something The Dream would put out. Who happens to be dropping a mixtape next week.

Production wise this mixtape is much tighter. I think that was his intent with this one all along.

Life Of The Party
The Zone
The Birds 1 and 2
Gone
Heaven Or Las Vegas

Those songs stand out too me. More then half the project which says a lot.

Glad to see over 122,000 downloads in under a hour. Just don't want to see Drake 2.0 though.

I'm not sure HOB can ever be topped by Weeknd. It's just that much of a revolutionary classic. Nothing touches that IMO.

The tracks that I enjoy are In My Zone [he and Drake need to come out with a tape], Birds II and Gone. I definitely don't think this is an **** album like HOB, but even with that said these tracks will be in the rotation.

As far as the Dream... na I don't even see that comparison. Dream is garbo to me sans a handful of standout tracks.

They both have a industrial heavy production style. Not to mention both sound exactly the same. Only difference is subject matter and The Dream is more up tempo.

Nothing on HOB would ever remind me of Dream, but that's just my ears I guess.

Thursday does sound semi Dreamish, but again I don't hear it that much.

Subject matter makes a huge difference, as well as production. Dream's production is much more radioish, best way I can describe it, compared to Weeknd's imo.

Words can't describe how badly I want to leave my off duty job right now to go home and download the new mixtape from The Weeknd.

HOB was one of a kind

Overall I would have to say this is one of my favorite singers and someone who is very underrated.

I've been listening to this song every day this week. It makes me smile and makes me feel all tingly inside. Saadiq's music is real feel good music.

This song is even better when you've got an amazing woman in your life.
