Customer Ratings & Reviews

The Weeknd never fails. Starboy has to be one of his best. He just keeps getting better and better.

In an age where digital singles often reign supreme, The Weeknd has still managed to deliver a classic album in which each record holds its own, but is also an intricate chapter of a larger story perhaps best enjoyed in sequence. Lyrically, he is still searching for meaning, but the package arrives with a creative polish that skillfully aims towards more than the target he hit so precisely with his Trilogy. With his previous album (and the dozens of accompanying performances), The Weeknd proved that there is indeed beauty behind his madness and impressively - he is still brave enough to give much of his music away for free and is still good enough to be paid anyways. Quite shy in years past, Tesfaye finally opens up just long enough to briefly drop the falsetto and share more of his vocal range range - to impressive results. The eerie electronic pop-funk fits well with the 80's sci-fi aesthetic and is both highly emotional and surprisingly fun. Previous comparison to Michael Jackson has been a stretch, but with the soulful pep of "I Feel It Comin', The Weeknd has truly earned it. Abel continues to dominate vocally making cameos mostly unnecessary and though his sound has grown much more radio friendly, he will need to outgrow his gritty, drug obsessed explicit lyrics if he truly wants to take over the world. If the album doesn't capture your imagination, several singles surely will. The Weeknd may have a way to go if he wants to be the new King of Pop, but he certainly is a Starboy.

The first time I put it in the player I listened to entire CD. I was surprised that I liked the majority of the tracks on the first listen. Too many times I buy a CD and lucky if a like a few tracks. Glad I bought it.

This album is full of good beats and naughty lyrics good to get party ready or for driving in the car. Don’t look for any deeper meaning in the lyrics. For the most part it’s all ses ”drums” and rock and roll.

Ive been looking for this album and finally found it at the best buy. good quality and recommend. I usually prefer listening to CD's over using an aux cord because of the better quality

Masterpiece. If Sade, Phil Collins, Prince, and Michael Jackson had a baby it is this guy! One of the greatest albums I have ever heard since Thriller!

I have to say that this is one of my all time favorite albums. I know I’m late in reviewing it but that’s besides the point. I would recommend this one

She got a new car and wanted a CD to play. Really only play the first song and that's it. But I believe in hard copy more than anything.

Been wanting to collect The Weeknd cd’s. Purchased on Black Friday so it was a great deal!

This is by far his best album yet! There’s a Michael Jackson and Prince flair to it!!

This is a great artist. Music is original and unapologetic. No need to skip tracks.

Everyone loves the vocal stylings of The Weeknd. His best album in my opinion.

Features a lot of great songs. I listen to this artist when I need energy!

Abel has a variety of music on this album . More laid back this time.

Great album with plenty hits. Daft Punk collaboration is superb.

Superb album from a talented, young singer! Highly recommended!

One of his best albums. A must own for hip hop and R & B fans.
