Listen: The Weeknd's "Starboy"

Joining 2016's big ticket releases from David Bowie, Rihanna, Sia, Kanye West, Kendrick Lamar, Beyoncé, Drake, Radiohead, Ariana Grande, Frank Ocean, Britney Spears, Bon Iver, Solange, Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars is Abel Tesfaye. His third studio album Starboy dropped overnight, which you can stream below. My first impression of it is decidedly mixed, the songs themselves oscillating between mainstream pop-house, heavily auto-tuned ballads and alt R&B. Picks, you say? That would be Rockin', Secrets, A Lonely Night and I Feel it Coming ft. Daft Punk.
