You should watch Mr2kGod react to the weeknd! Hes off the wall when he hears the music but appreciates the lyricism and poetic elements. He's an awesome reactor to the weeknd!
I recommend watching DFXOXO's channel reaction to the Trilogy. Two rock and hip hop fans listening to it and give their reactions and opinions. Each mixtape reaction is almost 1 hr long each so it feels like you;re listening to the whole thing with them. Also they get high and listen to Thursday mixtape which was dope xP

I’m jealous you get to just now experience house of balloons, Thursday, and echoes of silence The trilogy is his best work in my opinion even though I love every album he’s made this is just number 1 for me
@@nicolasnivolianitis824 I love Beauty Behind the Madness cuz it’s like Trilogy but with like pop meshed into it it’s a lot brighter than trilogy still dark tho
EOS is going to seal the deal in my opinion. DD then a few songs transitioning into XO/the host followed by Initiation!?!? It is going to destroy her... I can’t wait to witness :”)
I’m pretty jealous not gonna lie. Wish I can listen to HOB for the first time again. Can’t wait to see your reaction for the next two mixtapes and then the rest of his discography? One can hope. (Kiss Land is legendary too)
One cool thing about coming down is that in the chorus Abel says “i always want you when I’m coming down” and he has a song on echoes of silence called the fall where he says “i ain’t scared of the fall I’ve felt the ground before” but on after hours on his song until i bleed out he says “I can’t explain why I’m terrified, I’m so terrified. Well, i don’t wanna touch the sky no more i just want to feel the ground when I’m coming down it’s been way too long”
Your vibe is just so contagious, and you're really starting to become one of my favorite reactors/reviewers! I'm glad you got to finally hear this as it is a personal favorite of mine, and I'm hyped to see the rest for this series.
One of the first to actually appreciate the knowing as a seriously amazing track, the music video just takes it to another level when you understand the lyrics
I first started listening to him in 2016 when he released the starboy album. I had never heard of this guy before, but i tought starboy was good so i started checking out his other stuff. I had heard High for this before, and had been looking for it for ages. I listened to all his songs in one night, and that kids, is how my addiction started. But for real tho, this man can do it all. His lyrics are deep and good. And his voice, don't get me started. Especially in the Trilogy collection and Kiss land, just amazing. Also heard him live, he really can sing. Even tho that were on his starboy tour, he sang Wicked Games and i think i had goosebumps for a month.
"I can really hear his v... i can really hear his voice" 🤣 Your reaction was so pure and yourself. Enjoy the experience of listening to his albums for the first time! The world you are about to enter is going to be an adventure and a half😉👍🏼
1. Wicked Games 2. The Morning 3. Faith 4. Rolling Stone 5. HOB/GTG 6. The Knowing 7. After Hours 8. High For This 9. Echoes of Silence 10. XO/The Host
TheWeeknd Dark music, SHELBY BRIGHT HOODIE BRIGHT ROOM BRIGHT IMPRESSION 😂😂😂 Big fan already Shelby! KEEP your robotic stuff going on!! Totally irrelevant to TheWeeknd's music yet fitting 😂😂😂
I always get jealous every time I see someone experience Trilogy for the first time. Love seeing people come from hearing Starboy/After Hours and finding out where he came from. Subbed and hope to see you do the rest of Trilogy and his discography in the future! Also just a heads up - Trilogy only gets darker from here. ;] It really is an experience. Welcome to XO
Transition mid song between HOB to GTG is flawless.. that beat drop is crazy good and the rythym of it.. The King Of Transitions, not the only thing that is so impressive about The Weeknds music.. But how he instantly changed the way RNB is.
I'm really happy for you because you get to experience all of this for the first time! I first listened to Trilogy back in 2015 - let's just say I was NOT ready. 😄 It tells you everything about The Weeknd's character. *Favorite songs* - I like all of them, but I'll go with *House of Balloons, Wicked Games* & *Loft Music* "Thursday" mixtape is up next! *XOTWOD* 💙
Aww Trilogy, the whole project that change my whole life. Agradecido con el de arriba tho. Cool reaction girl, House of Ballons/Glass table girls still hits me like that hahaha. Can't wait for the next reaction. XOTWOD 🖤
“I’ve never heard him sound like this before” “he just sounds so different” because that is THE Weeknd. All his new albums are the pop version of him which in essence is still the same guy he’s just crossed over. In his song rolling stone he talks about making the transition it’s an ode to the core of his fanbase and calling in the new people that are about to discover him.
As a long time fan, Im happy people are still discovering his music. I just wish he'll throw us a bone and do one album like house of ballons again IMO.
Seeing you feel the same emotions as a lot of us did the first time we heard the album makes me happy! Love seeing you become a fan as you listen. Hope you get to listen to the rest of his albums, singles, and features! Looking forward to your content! :)
Omg you’re literally my favourite reactor now PLEASE do every album. 🤍🌈 Your vibe is just so amazing! I haven’t smiled in a while and your reactions just made my day.
Yessss this is now just the beginning. You must react to his whole discography now. The fan base is gonna swarm this. Also as you do, if you really listen to his lyrics or read them you might get different feels for it.
It's great to see someone listening to House of Balloons for the first time, it really shows in the person's reaction how great of an artist Abel is. Great video, you should definitely make more on other albums of his 👍
Idk y his old tapes are suddenly comin back up but im glad ppl are openin up his catalogue to arguably his best work. The reason “we” abel fans LOVE him so much is because he has come along way as an artist BUT the Day 1s kno this will most likely always b his best work. Soooo much work, soo much passion, soo much innovation, and simply Abel at his rawest form. XOTWOD. welcome to the fam. Late AF but glad u could finally make it. 💯👏🏾
Your reactions are like listening to the clean versions of the songs but we all know exactly what he’s talking about in his songs. Keep them coming, keep going through his discography. 🙌🏼
Love seeing peopkle experience this for the first time.. I remember listening to this in 2011 when hit was still a mixtape , The trilogy changed my opinion on music forever. I still have those unmastered tracks lol. -- Enjoy the XO ride!!!
@@mohamedabib0 I agree people didn’t really like Kissland at first but it’s always been one of my favourites from Abel. I’m just glad it’s finally getting the credit it rightfully deserves
after this trilogy series, you gotta react to 1) kiss land 2) beauty behind the madness 3) starboy 4) my dear melancholy 5) the three bonus tracks for after hours, “nothing compares” , “missed you” and “final lullaby” and 6) his most recent single, “over now” with calvin harris
The first time listen to HOB is unlike any other experience I can remember involving music. It's so different from anything else that there's almost a System shock.
If you are musically inclined especially production wise you can just appreciate the uniqueness of the actual instrumentation itself so much more. I’ve been making beats for 5+ years and hearing the production on the trilogy blew my mind the first time i heard it. Not only the beats but the way the vocals are mixed as well. I think trilogy takes the cake for best rnb album this century.
Who's here for fresh XO reactions after watching all of Jon Denton's reactions?

i know right i’m so jealous, the adrenaline must be rushing through her body listening to trilogy for the first time

You don't have to say "in my opinion" trilogy is just his best work, simple.

You should definitely do all his albums
Forsures, u can tell she’s actually listening 💫!!
YES
I wanna see her do beauty behind the madness
agree 1000%
@@nicolasnivolianitis824 I love Beauty Behind the Madness cuz it’s like Trilogy but with like pop meshed into it it’s a lot brighter than trilogy still dark tho
If he sounds different at Glass Table Girls, imagine her reaction at Life Of The Party..
imagine initiation
@@irvxan Yeah that one too
Or Heavenly Creatures V2
EOS is going to seal the deal in my opinion. DD then a few songs transitioning into XO/the host followed by Initiation!?!? It is going to destroy her... I can’t wait to witness :”)
🤣🤣🤣
Best description for his music ive heard is haunted strip club music
That’s a perfect description 😂
literally thats how I explain it to my friends!!! I love me some haunted strip club music
House of Balloons definitely changed the game
“So depressing, and so beautiful.” Yup. That’s why we love him haha. Literally subbed for these Weeknd reactions. Can’t wait to see the rest 🔥
She's not ready for echoes of silence, that song is probably his most depressing one ever. Right next to the knowing and I was never there.
montreal lyrics r so hurtful tho
My same 3 saddest tracks wtf lol
Her reaction on house of balloons to glass table girls switch up is the best
"I've never heard him sound like this before”...wait till she hears Initiation 😵
Initiation is sooooo dark and it makes me so happy. Don't ask me why
XO | The Host to Initiation transition is beautiful.
Facts lol
A song with 2 meanings. Dark (drugs) and super dark (sharing your girl with the boys).
@@HYPERxSONICxFANx2012 explores the bottom in a way I’ve never seen before frrr. The vocal inflections are sooo good
I believe he was 20-21 when making these mixtapes which is pretty insane if you ask me
Oh no that’s trilogy he was far more younger rember separate albums then he remastered it to trilogy
@Broken Glass in loft music he says “I’m only fucking 20”
And nas was writing illmatic when he was 17
The Weeknd Music Tapes he would’ve been 20 when recording HOB around 2010, then he released each mixtape throughout 2011, then trilogy in 2012
@@supersmashmaster43 💯🤌
Finally, someone who appreciates the vocals. Truly unique.
New favorite pastime is to watch people listen to House of Balloons for the first time, so fun to watch!!!! XOTWOD

Oh god, just wait until she hears Adaptation off of Kiss Land y’all she’s going to transcend
This song is so underrated. Top 5 Weeknd and best on Kissland for me.
Derek Addison agreed!
The first verse off adaptation is my favorite verse off any song in all time actually. The whole song is straight poetry oooooof
Ali Losa the layered harmonies at the end >>>
emily SHE MIGHT JUST BE THE OOOOOOOOOOONNNNNNEEEEEEEE
I’m pretty jealous not gonna lie. Wish I can listen to HOB for the first time again. Can’t wait to see your reaction for the next two mixtapes and then the rest of his discography? One can hope. (Kiss Land is legendary too)
This came out like ten years ago.... way ahead of its time...
If this dropped today, it would go insane!
We got another one, guys. XOTWOD
i think twenty eight and the morning are def my favs 😩 but i really love the whole mixtape
On mee
Same bruh

One of the first to actually appreciate the knowing as a seriously amazing track, the music video just takes it to another level when you understand the lyrics
The Knowing might be the best track he's ever made.
Saddest too, which makes it beautiful.
It'll always be my number one song
It’s dark and beautiful as always

Waiting for her to react to xo/the host transitioning to initiation

headphones at least :/ but w/e
I like music better on speakers, sure headphones work for his intimate tracks like what you need but HOB/GTG is next level on great speakers
@@SonicTheo both are unique on their ways
that feeling of hearing house of balloons for the first time is amazing.
You need to listen with headphones so you get the full experience and get immersed Into the songs
Glad you enjoyed his best early work. The Weekend is one of the greats. Hope you listen to all his albums and see how he evolved.
Aww Trilogy, the whole project that change my whole life. Agradecido con el de arriba tho.
