Paragraph 2 - "Starboy" is nothing less than a masterpiece. The album features two singles and sixteen more original tracks. The album features Abel Tesfaye (The Weeknd) in every track, and features other artist such as Future and Lana Del Rey.
Paragraph 3 - The album serves a very spiritual function. You feel what The Weeknd is saying and talking about, and feel the emotions he conveys. This album and it's many songs get me feeling many emotions, from love to anger.
Paragraph 4 - This album reached me because I could tell how much of himself The Weeknd put into these songs. Some are very personal, such as "Reminder" where he goes about his hardships and how he is successful now. I can tell he used himself and his REAL emotions when writing this, and that's what makes it beautiful!
Every piece of art should have some kind of a message, what kind of message do you think Weeknd conveys.
ReplyDeleteI think that many messages are conveyed in the album. One specific one that stands out to me is "never give up". The Weeknd mentions how he went from "homeless to Forbes List", which really shows how working hard and doing what you love can pay off!
DeleteI can agree with you that music can touch someone and speak to them which they can relate to. It allows for the art to be spoken to you instead of it being seen. Lots of people can relate to the artist which is why people like them so much.
ReplyDeleteNice work Luke, very descriptive. I can relate to what your talking about. The album was great, and Starboy was a banger!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing this, Luke. You call the album a masterpiece...how does it stand apart from other albums in the genre?
ReplyDeleteYou mentioned the real emotions contained in the music. Do you feel they're real because they capture something you yourself experienced? Elaborate a bit more here.
I can agree that music conveys a touching message to the fans. It helps them relate to the artist personally.
