Music Review: The Weeknd’s Dawn FM
On his new album Dawn FM, The Weeknd continues to expand the sounds he emulated so well on After Hours. He is pushing towards an ‘80s synth pop sound that goes toe-to-toe with the music from that era; however, this time instead of it being a random batch of songs there is a story weaved into the album. The story is immersive as the listeners tune into a dystopian radio station, hosted by comedy legend Jim Carrey, whose role seems to be to attract new listeners to join his cult.
