I wish Daft Punk produced for me people, like on the Disclosure work-for-hire or complilation tip. That American Music Awards showing is the best of the bunch. New Edition is who he's playing while he’s whipping his Bentley Mulsanne. His main and side chicks are out of your league. “Starboy” - Somebody woke up feeling theirself! It's so fun hearing Weeknd's gentle Ethiopian voice stunt so hard and talk his shit. Here are some random, though fitting, thoughts I’ve had while listening to Starboy. His sound, which I used to describe as Sade-like-if she had done hard drugs, dwelled in the underworld and adored classic horror flicks-has broadened to shimmering '80s pop while also staying true to his core. So he obviously killed it on the scoreboard.There's so much I enjoyed about several of Abel 'The Weeknd' Tesfaye's 18-song newbie. It also broke their one-day record, with 40 million streams in 24 hours.

So it's refreshing when a good project does something noteworthy in the numbers department.In the last few days The Weeknd's Starboy album has racked up plays and purchases and the first wave of tallies resulted in the Toronto singer-songwriter breaking the global record for first-week streams on Spotify, with more than 223 million streams. In the music biz statistics confirm success, but not always quality.
