Abel Tesfaye, also known as The Weeknd, has yet again amazed the music industry with another promising hit album “Starboy” which was released on Nov. 25. The new album “Starboy” is already the number one downloaded album on Apple Music. Considering how well his other three albums have done, “Trilogy,” “Kiss Land” and “Beauty Behind The Madness,” there is no doubt that “Starboy” will be on top along with the others.
The early release singles from the album, “Starboy (ft. Daft Punk)” and “Party Monster,” have earned their way to the top 100 on the billboard chart. “Starboy” is sitting comfortably at No. 3 and “Party Monster” at No. 39. Some say The Weeknd is the second coming of the king of pop Michael Jackson, the title is well deserved after his promising No. 1 album “Behind the Madness” and the brand new “Starboy” album.
Popular names such as Drake, Future, Lana Del Rey and Kendrick Lamar all featured in the album to make it that much better. There are an astonishing 18 songs on the album. The album consist of over an hour of creative and unique sounds. It is the first album in a while that I feel I can listen to without skipping any songs. “Starboy” definitely deserves a full 5 star rating because,The Weeknd yet again fulfills the fans high expectations of the previous albums.
