janetDAYZ Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 The Weeknd has been having a strong year, building his already strong fanbase into something bigger with his ventures into bright, pop-leaning territory. "I Can't Feel My Face" is currently the #1 song in the country, and that's far from his only contribution to the current charts.The success of Abel's singles has translated to an impressive number for his album's first week sales, as he moves 325,267 copies of Beauty Behind The Madness, and 415,267 units including streams (according to Hits Daily Double). With those figures, he's bested just about every rap and R&B release this year outside of Drake, which is a pretty impressive accomplishment. The official Billboard numbers may differ slightly. Look out for those soon. http://www.hotnewhiphop.com/the-weeknds-beauty-behind-the-madness-first-week-sales-are-in-news.17417.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kishi Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 (edited) It's been at least 4-6 years of mixtapes, features, and building a solid fanbase. He's been around for a WHILE. I first heard of him through Drake's "Crew Love". He went on the road with Justin Timberlake. Then "Love Me Harder" and "Worth It" happened. He's also got a huge online following.

I'm glad he's seeing success but I hope it doesn't come to the detriment of his music quality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
janetDAYZ Posted September 8, 2015 Author Share Posted September 8, 2015 (edited) Ppl are saying his album is sick. Ive like him since the first time i heard his voice.

It was awhile before he was visible Edited September 8, 2015 by janetDAYZ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I like his voice on "Can't Feel My Face" and "Love Me Harder". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeJoe Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 what?????? U took a listen to someone who is apart of the new generation??? Shocked me too i'm surprised lol. I think that's how a lot of people start seeming old fast is they don't wanna listen to newer music on the radio. I allowed myself to be open to all music...well mostly all new music. Once I hear it then i'll see if I like it instead of just refusing to listen to new music period Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
