there're is not a word...dafuq you on trying to correct me? Also if they speak a different language that is fine but many people feel talking like a rapper makes something of their comment.
God damn, both of you are wrong. *****, it's not "there's", it's there are, since you're talking about books and not book - plural. *****, you don't write out there are with "there're". Try saying that out loud without sounding like an idiot...yeah, didn't think so.
I think his hair frkm best to worse would be BBTM > Kissland >After Hours > Starboy/ Early Trilogy > Late Trilogy (Tarantula) > KOTF (2014) That's just my opinion tho
With no exaggeration, the Weeknd is like hands down the best r &b artist on this planet.. His albums on par, his features are what make him too. I wish he'd do more with Drake tbh
The message behind this song is true, it's very true, and it's so sad. Before Jean Michel Basquiat committed suicide he famously said something akin to people loving his art and praising him when he paints on drugs but not so much when he was sober. Critiques would say he lost his skills, called him lazy, etc. Really fucks you up man
I'm gifted when I'm faded. I'm faded all the time, cause i know that's when they love me. They love me when I'm high, when they love me, I get money, I get money, I get money
I met French at the Weeknd concert 6 or 7 years ago. And when i shook his hand i swear my brain went back to this joint immediately. Cool little personal experience for me.
basically it means this: Canaries meaning canary diamonds which have yellow tones… as does urine, but frozen urine will not create a diamond. French is talking about finding a woman and getting married to her. This line means that French was saying finding a woman from the ghetto and marrying her is like trying to pass frozen urine as yellow diamonds. Most of them are fake and dirty.
John Pinto you did say AN ARTIST not A HIP HOP ARTIST, so maybe Luke thought you were speaking in general. He is right about The Weeknd tho...he still got the flavor he had when he first started out.
If you dont get high you would never understand what he meant by gifted when he's faded , because he feels the life of the poor and high and what it's like to go from nothing to something you can be a legend and still be a user of every drug, xoxoxo
Lmao bullshit French wrote his part.. "French told MTV's RapFix host Sway Calloway that the track was a true collaboration that the pair built from scratch. "He wrote the hook, but you know, he take two weeks to write a song so it could be perfect," the Bad Boy rapper said. "He kinda, like, don't work with nobody, so I was excited to work with him."
Holy shit this song is lowkey deep. The weekend says "They love me when I'm high" and that he "gets money" because of it. The song is titled Gifted, and could be based off of his and other mainstream musician's lives, as we all love the Weeknd when he gets high and writes his music based off of his past experiences with cocaine and other substances, and that we are responsible for him making money and being considered "gifted". He is singing about the music industry and our role in it as his fans.
I love Abel, but there's absolutely nothing deep about it lol. It doesn't take a second thought to know exactly what he means. It's just a feature tho, so I don't expect anything deep.
isidro leyva no, Abel does it because he genuinely likes making music and touring to see his fans, the more songs he has, the more songs he can perform at tours.
when you ask abel to be featured you know damn well it ain't your song anymore. if he kills his own songs, you know damn well he's going to kill it when spits on your song. it's his song now, just gotta thank him for making your song better and pay that man for it.
1. Stop hating on French, this is his song too and he did well. 2. Abel killed this shit, absolutely amazing. 3. I'm here because of the baby Tigers. Absolutely adorable.
let people say what they must. in my eyes this is a good song the way it is no need for babytears but to each their own lol I know somebody racking up and it ain't the people in the comments.

So what you are telling me is that this is his song. Just like every other feature he’s ever done. 🤷🏽♂️ Hes just too good

I know what he meant and I was typing quickly and angrily. Still doesn't change what I had to say about eubonics, fuckin trolls
This song literally would be nothing without The Weeknd.
right
It would be nothing without Danny Boy Styles beat
It would be great without this comment section!
+Pepe The Frog damn bruh
YES
He was so hot in this period. I really miss this hair.
Yeah the old look was dope, not so big on the fro
If he ever brings it back people would go back to insulting his hair.

was looking for this, didn't have to look far
Idk why but The Weeknd verse hits the deepest part of my soul
when abel is on your track it's not your track anymore. Just sayin'
When you are French Montana anyone who features on your track is destined to carry you cause your name is French and you suck
@@ezraprzytyk Jees💀
Right?
weeknd + beat = amazing
Absolutely spot on
BballNintendo3 The Weeknd with or without beat 🔥🔥🔥🔥🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈☄️☄️☄️☄️☄️☄️⭐️
French Montana killed it! And by kill it, I mean he ruined the fucking song!
I agree 100%
Rhys Cowan rebecca black did it, multiple times
greenpeacekiller52 so why you here
greenpeacekiller52 says the guy who has nothing to do but hate because he has nothing better else to do with his spare time.
Daniel Hernandez 😂😂
i‘m concerned for Abel at this point. he must have serious back pains from carrying all the songs he’s featured in 😢
unbelievable how cute the weeknd looks like in this video 😍😍😍
damn hes always cute
He's always been handsome..I mean I could be biased bc he looks just like my youngest son but ion think so he's a very good looking man
Stormy Weather wait your son looks like him omgggg your so lucky
honeymoon. XO these young girls are the lucky ones..lol..hes 16 now and they've called him the lil Abel since he was about 8/9..

Wait, what's the message exactly? I don't get it. It's that people love you when you're high? how is that necessarily bad?

How is this masterpiece not known nearly well enough? It captures the essence of the weeknd (at the time period) so accurately.
Well said, ironically i discovered the weeknd from this track lmao
@@yahya9889 samw
Unfortunately, its cause half of the song is bad (French Montana).
French was trying his best with his lines in this song. Some good punches. Abel always on point. Haaaaaan!!
Rixx Kumar 💀
Idk why but Abel’s looking extra fine in this video 🫡
I love the weeknd, his voice is unique! people should appreciate unique more often.
I'm gifted when I'm faded. I'm faded all the time, cause i know that's when they love me. They love me when I'm high, when they love me, I get money, I get money, I get money
This song is such a vibe until french montana opens his mouth :(
More like The Weeknd ft French Montana
Dude are you reading my mind? That's exactly how I feel
trueee.
Right?
Ahmed Gafar should've been The Weeknd himself French Montana trash as fuck
Ahmed Gafar lmao so true
My god the weeknd is so amazing.. He gives you that vibe
The Weeknd kills every song he featured on
it's actually kinda sad when abel said they love me when I'm high
It's true
Same wit me it's crazy
and then how he just says when they love me I get money and repeats I get money.... likes thats sad, self destructive cycle
It's fact they love you at your worst, or at least when you make them look at their best.
It's fact they love you at your worst, or at least when you make them look at their best.

ISHAAN VASHIST i know right!
***** why?
+Cheeky T bitch he aint even muslim dumb fuck
+OVOXO Stan maybe view ont mean every thing but i think this song was good :D
all of weeknds songs are total fire i dont know why some of his songs are not getting the right recognition
abel killed the intro ,arguably one of the hardest hip hop songs ever
All I do is kill pain, all I do is smoke loud
the weeknd looks fineeee af in this vid!! god damn!! XO
I met French at the Weeknd concert 6 or 7 years ago. And when i shook his hand i swear my brain went back to this joint immediately. Cool little personal experience for me.
Good song to listen too when ur feeling emotionless
"That's like pissin' in a freezer, trying to make canaries"- french montana. lyrical fuckin poet right here
Marc Monson do you not get the reference?
No i dont... #white

Frenchies sickest track of all time s/o to the weekend tho 🔥🔥🔥
HE LOOKKKKSS SO YUMMY😍
and his hair looks so good
montana's verse in this may not be the best, but its one of those songs where the way he raps just works good with the weeknd and the beat
gifted when im faded…XO!
Gosh, i look at The weekend and i'm in love...he is so hot!!! I love his voice so much!!!
the weeknd is life, for real
Ikr
Huge weekend fan but you gotta admit that French absolutely killed his verse 🔥🔥
I am real glad French Montana made it big, but I do miss the old Montana back in the "new york minute" and "in for the kill" days!
yeah old french was the best but hey thats what happens when an artist goes mainstream. They get money but they lose the style that got them there
John Pinto the weeknd didnt though
luke fowler who tf mentioned the weeknd? R&B is a whole other subject
John Pinto you did say AN ARTIST not A HIP HOP ARTIST, so maybe Luke thought you were speaking in general. He is right about The Weeknd tho...he still got the flavor he had when he first started out.
Jelena Tapuskovic The weeknd isn't signed that's why

If you dont get high you would never understand what he meant by gifted when he's faded , because he feels the life of the poor and high and what it's like to go from nothing to something you can be a legend and still be a user of every drug, xoxoxo
