If you’re more of a weekend person than a Thursday person, you might want to reconsider. The Weeknd dropped Thursday and here’s our review.
“Thursday doesn’t try to welcome new fans into the R&B sensation shrouded in mystery. It very much picks up where House Of Balloons left off — a plethora of enthrall beats, silky vocals, and an overall evaluation of aching seductions waiting to be heard.”

There has always been this long history of rappers co-signing artists. The Weeknd is no different, seeing a lot of appreciation from his hometown Toronto, as well as his fellow native Drake. Drizzy undoubtedly brought the singer into the limelight on March 6, tweeting his lyrics and a link about the song, “Wicked Games” off the remarkable House of Balloons.

Fast forward to the 2nd annual OVO festival, Drake tells Billboard.com’s The Juice that Abel Tesfaye will appear on his sophomore effort, Take Care.

“He’s one of the greatest artists I ever heard,” he says of The Weeknd. “He’s on my album a lot. We really collaborated a lot on this album.”

The YMCMB rap singer speaks further on the Weeknd, noting he has been a major inspiration to sing better on-stage and “he just inspired me writing wise, music wise, just to better my product.”

“To hear someone else with an incredible body of work is very rare. It’s very inspiring.” Drake says.
