High for this - 2:20 What you need- 5:21 House of balloons/ glass table girls- 7:19 The morning- 9:38 wicked games 11:07 The party after the party - 12:42 Coming down- 14:23 Loft music- 15:20
If you noticed in twenty eight he says “ this house is not a home to you” and in after hours he’s changed when he said “cause this house Is not a home without my baby”.
Mr2KGod idk if you picked up on his cali reference to “order plane tickets , cali is the mission” with snow child being “Cali was the mission but now a nigga leaving”, great video btw! Gave me chills
Mostafa 16 to sum it up, each mixtape has the part of the big story being presented, even though within all of the songs, there are connections to be made. the first mixtape house of balloons starts of the story of the party lifestyle of the weeknd who abuses drugs and manipulates women. the next mixtape, thursday introduces valerie. the first song in that mixtape, lonely star describes how valerie is one of his side hoes but she wants more. the song thursday later elaborates how the girl can only see him one day a week on “thursday”. valerie falls for him and ends up being hurt in the end in the songs “the birds pt 1 & 2. finally the last mixtape, echoes of silence shows how destroyed the weeknd is on the inside and how he is the one who gets hurt in the end. he finds it all pointless as the title “echoes of silence” shows. overall, this took me forever to write but i hope this clears it up
Lauren Gilbride thanks bro lol. it’s just that he said EVERY song was connected when really yeah they are but not how he said. Aside from this what’s your favorite out of the three ?
-- honestly for the music itself i literally cannot decide because each mixtape is amazing in its own way. but based on the story being told, Thursday is the best in that context.
Not quite. Doc McKinney produced most of House of balloons and Thursday. Hence the rock and punk influences and all the heavy guitar work on those records. Illangelo came in and produced echoes of silence, and he’s on After hours but not Doc. Doc Mckinney worked with Abel again on Starboy, hence again the guitar work on that record
Keep Calm Don’t feel sad. Feel happy that Abel’s hard work is getting paid off. I’m sure it makes him happy to notice people go back and do their homework on probably his most important project.
The feeling I had when I first listened to these songs.. It’s just amazing. I never knew music could evoke these type of feelings. It’s just perfect. Indescribable.. The same vibes I got back then, I still get them. XOTWODDDD
So beautiful to watch you fall in love with this. You’re so right about going back to After Hours after each record to see how far the character has grown lyrically and musically. The Weeknd’s discography is one of the must fulfilling musical journeys that I’ve ever experienced. That’s probably why we’re so obsessed with watching others go on the journey. Thank you for this whole series.
man i love your reviews cuz you pay attention to the story behind songs and reflect the songs on the artist and theyre other albums. Shit you even read the lyrics as you're listening. and you react to people from xxx to the weeknd which styles are completely different. keep grinding dawg
bruh im so glad i found this channel, bringing me back to 2011 and 2012. Trilogy is a whole story, takes a couple listens to take it in. Kissland is full of double entendres.
LMFAOOOO this is the most hilarious reaction video ever hahaha xD house of balloons is a huge throwback for me, its super cool to see someone hear it for the first time and to hear their first impressions
What’s crazy is that he sounds exactly like this live. I had the honor to see him live. He sang a couple trilogy songs and I was not disappointed. Party and the After Party was one of my favorites and he was not a pitch off lol
I've been watching for years and the reason why is because you have the most human and real reactions to music. I agree with your thoughts on the music and it's a blessing to see your videos when you upload Myles. This is awesome, so we here years later and hoping for many years. Be safe and keep it up during this hard quarantine time and beyond. Thank you Mr2KGod!!
Thsnks for the love bro ❤️❤️ thanks for sticking with me the whole time. You stay safe too. I MIGHT be mistaken but i think i might’ve seen your name once before when i livestreamed back then
Discovered this from the weeknd’s features on Take Care right as it came out. It’s been 8 years shittt. I thought he was a genre-bending white band singer in the beginning lmao. No one knew what he looked like yet, or if it was a dude or a band. Just pictures of girls on a youtube page. I still remember when he performed first time at coachella (2012) & it was a big deal bc finally you’d see wtf he looks like
BROOO THIS REACTION! you gonna love the next two mixtapes that make this trilogy probably the best music out there, all the feelings and the experience is there!
I always notice that "The Knowing" music video always has under 7 million views so I would highly recommend everyone check that out. It' very unique and awesome.
only started watching when you put out the after hours review and shit was too funny. you most definitely gotta listen to the next tapes separately. keep em comin they’re entertaining
The delivery on these albums was way better than that of after hours personally. its more confident and just hits this album was so ahead of its time..
Trilogy as a whole was eye opening for me as a 14 year old kid in high school back in 2013. I discovered The Weeknd at wayyy too young of an age but I ate it up. Watching you get hype over High for This i couldn't help but think just wait bro your in for a ride
it makes me so happy there people that feel and understand the weeknd’s music the same way i do 😭😭 i swear everyone i meet in IRL doesn’t like his music at all n i CANNOT UNDERSTAND THAT
i thought he was gonna start crying during The Morning lol but this is a legendary album every time i listen to it it’s like the first time and it just gets better and better
Now you know you have to do Thursday and Echos of Silence? Man, being a fan back in 2011 when no one knew about him was damn lit. I went to his first show in Chicago. I'll never forget him selling out the Congress.
Yo idk how you can be a Weeknd fan not dip your toes in this every now and then. I always go ham and go through all his shit when I go on my Weeknd binge

I recognized that when listening but forgot to talk about it 😭😭

@@JonathanGonzalez-ty4vh was just about to say that
Jonathan Gonzalez i noticed that too
yeah in all of after houses he has references to twenty eight
I honestly don't understand how there's still weeknd fans that never went back and listened to his old shit
Kamron Howard me lol. I started listening when can’t feel my face came out but never heard trilogy or kissland. I just heard HOB last night
-- how can you let that happen to yourself lol
I hope you’ve heard everything else.
Michael De La Rosa I heard Thursday 4 days ago and I thinks it’s better than hob if not equal
You can’t even say you’re a real fan without knowing
Listened to him since his trilogy album came out. My favs are High For This and The Knowing
The rest of trilogy + kissland is a MUST. we here for it all the way.
Listenin to the weekend on a weekday is the vibe.
Weeknd on a weekdy
Nah bruh, its gotta be a Thursday
18:25 this is the exact moment he turned into XO. Welcome to the cult fam
this album just shows he was ahead of his time, its crazy
High for this is the best intro I've heard in a minute. And glass tables production is orgasmic.
Alone again comes close to high for this but high for this does also apply to the listener so yeah I can see how it might tip it
Shady Yam professional >>
@@LilSaske27 proffesional is just fucking amazing. Definately my #1
btw there's a story being told throughout the whole trilogy. every song is connected

Wicked games is forever iconic
It's his best song ever followed by The Morning no argument they embody the weeknd
Wicked Games could go number 1 today!
the dudes who produced triolgy done most of after hours :)
With the risk of you already knowing brother, you gotta check out illangelo, he`s OG
Bertin Etem met him personally ! I’m from Toronto. The scene here is quite intimate.
Not quite. Doc McKinney produced most of House of balloons and Thursday. Hence the rock and punk influences and all the heavy guitar work on those records. Illangelo came in and produced echoes of silence, and he’s on After hours but not Doc. Doc Mckinney worked with Abel again on Starboy, hence again the guitar work on that record
@@lvt4003 thanks for the insight my brother :)
I feel so sad that people discover now these real gems!! Trilogy is the album that changed the whole rnb
I feel kinda jealous cuz this guy can listen these gems for the first time🥺
Its better they discover them now then never
@@user-cs9us8kt2b trueeeee
Keep Calm Don’t feel sad. Feel happy that Abel’s hard work is getting paid off. I’m sure it makes him happy to notice people go back and do their homework on probably his most important project.
@@Poecstasy ofc im happy dude
Now you gotta listen to Thursday and Echoes of Silence
His reaction to "The Morning" is how both my soul and balls feel at the same time when I hear it
The into gets me everytime😭😭😭. I had my volume all the way up
I can’t believe u haven’t heard these classics until now 😭
Coming Down my favorite Weeknd song
We all know the exact moment in "High for This" when everyone's breath catches as they bask in the glory of the production.
The feeling I had when I first listened to these songs.. It’s just amazing. I never knew music could evoke these type of feelings. It’s just perfect. Indescribable.. The same vibes I got back then, I still get them. XOTWODDDD
Bro isn’t it amazing be thankful you were here for this
Wish I could have this experience again.
Great reaction... but everybody knows that Trilogy is a must 🌧🤷🏽♂️
Jose Bravo House of Ballons is part of Trilogy
Sam Chalhoub he’s talking about it as a whole, All three mixtapes
Lol for real ...love how this kid Sam is trying to correct me tho 😂
Jose Bravo sorry lol I wasn’t sure

Listen to the rest of Trilogy and Kissland pls. The Weeknd’s one of the greatest RnB acts of all time no doubt.
Easily greatest
@@jaakkohuru1620 Michael Jackson... his idol
@@TawandaTD97 Yeah well known... Abel's still better than him. And Michael is popstar not R'n'B
He became the greatest randb of this decade
Da intro almost got me in trouble
You’re not alone 😂
Please do the rest of Trilogy plz :(
These intros recently givin me heavy nostolgia. Fire ♨️
Rs 😂😂
The knowing is the saddest song I've ever heard from him.
Echoes of Silence
@@afben8428 I was about to say that to him too
Shady Yam mmmm
Shady Yam Yeah I agree. The Weeknd’s released quite a few sad songs but that’s probably the saddest.
The knowing is lowkey more evil than sad lmao... but as someone who has been cheated on shit kind of hit me
I'm addicted to your reactions to King Abel.
man i love your reviews cuz you pay attention to the story behind songs and reflect the songs on the artist and theyre other albums. Shit you even read the lyrics as you're listening. and you react to people from xxx to the weeknd which styles are completely different. keep grinding dawg
Ahhhh!!! This is gonna be a journey if you go through all the tapes !!, Thursday next pleaseeeee
I wish i could listen to HOB for the first time again damn..
I was so ready for this reaction
I’m so happy you’re doing this album and this was the perfect reaction as well
You need to do a full Weeknd season, I'm here for it all the way! 🔥🔥🔥
If Abel released this album in 2023,
It'd have still become one of the greatest albums of all time.
☠️
bruh im so glad i found this channel, bringing me back to 2011 and 2012. Trilogy is a whole story, takes a couple listens to take it in. Kissland is full of double entendres.
Wait until you hear valerie, love in the sky, tears in rain, professional 😁
naw; goes downhill from here really
Ur Mama Lies.
Love In The Sky, Tears In The Rain & Professional are my top 3 favorite songs by Abel
LMFAOOOO this is the most hilarious reaction video ever hahaha xD house of balloons is a huge throwback for me, its super cool to see someone hear it for the first time and to hear their first impressions
BEEN WAITIN FOR DIS !
seeing you react to this reminds me of the first time I heard HOB when it first came out 9 years ago! so dope 🖤shoutout XO
Wicked Games and The Knowing delivering so much pain damn
What’s crazy is that he sounds exactly like this live. I had the honor to see him live. He sang a couple trilogy songs and I was not disappointed. Party and the After Party was one of my favorites and he was not a pitch off lol
finally someone i actually like watching, reacts to a throwback, thank you🙏🏼😂
You gotta listen to all of Trilogy now
you got my subscribe maneee I’ve been xo since 2011 and I wish I could do a first reaction to this masterpiece again 😣
Me too. I have been XOTWOD Since Kane :(
Sorry I meant :))

Honestly wish I could listen to trilogy and Kissland again for the first time. Shit was heavenly 💯
Frr doe
I’m so glad he reads the lyrics with the music, I feel a lot of reactions would be better if they got the message/correct lyrics
It's amazing to consider how young Abel was when he released this
BROOO THIS REACTION! you gonna love the next two mixtapes that make this trilogy probably the best music out there, all the feelings and the experience is there!
I love that you have Fallen and The Open Door in the background. I absolutely love evanescence.
HOB: Cail is the mission
AF: Cail was the mission, but now a ni*** leaving
Anthony Cortinas Cali* Bbtm - tell your friends - cali was the mission

agreed, it's really great
have all 3 mixtapes on vinyl. listen to the other two when you have the time theyre absolutely of the same quality as house of balloons.
house of balloons best imo but fw with the other mixtapes

First reaction 10 years later! Glad the weeknd could still have reactions like this
MUST REACT TO “KING OF THE FALL”, one of the best records he pumped out
Bruh! Fire Reaction! 🔥🔥🔥 Can't wait for the rest

“This is the example of fire” FUCK YES ✊🏼🔥
I subbed because of this. Keep up the XO content.
The Knowing is prolly the most underrated song ever...
You need to listen to Kiss land, that whole album was just... Perfection, theres no other words to put it in
I can't wait til the weeknds documentary comes out, it's been a fucking ride.
LMAO your intro scared me
Bruh how are you not at like 1 million subscribers??? you're easily the funniest music reviewer on youtube, keep doing your thing g
The Knowing is definitely one of Abel's best tracks. Absolute heart wrenching song
