Last year, The Weeknd released an album that got crazy buzz around the US. Just one year later, The Weeknd has released his third album, Starboy. Starboy is similar to previous works, combining a smooth R&B genre with a classy lounge style. A lot of the music is mysterious and odd, but somehow works well for the artist. Personally the style is a bit too subdued for my ears, but I like the classy character that The Weeknd has become. On this album, we get more collabs with other artists as well. These include singles with Daft Punk, Lana Del Rey, Kendrick Lamar, and Future. These singles mesh The Weeknd's style with other popular artists, creating some really interesting tunes. Honestly, these collabs are my favorite part of the album. Still, it is important to realize that without The Weeknd's unique style, these collabs would cease to exist. Plus, "Starboy" is his best song yet (followed very closely by "The Hills"). And for that, I am grateful for The Weeknd's new album!
