    I'm so sick of that same old love,
    what's wrong with being confident?
    Hotline bling slays and y'all have to know this, this album is not good to me, I prefer The Weeknd's new album than this to be honest.
    Revival, Confident, Hotline Bling and The Beauty Behind The Madness are better

    This sprawling album [is] his most solid release since the original Documentary. It's nothing more or less than the complex story of a lifelong hip-hop fan who's happiest when he can see himself as part of the history he embraces so vocally.

    Great news is The Documentary 2 sounds effortless and winds up awesome because of it.

    The Game is literally inseparable from his influences. He doesn’t digest them as other rappers might; instead, he wears them like brands. He too is joined by oodles of guests, a striking show of support for a midcareer rapper who’s pugnacious to boot. Both Kanye West and Drake appear here, and in strong form.
