vicemag: stereogum: Mixtape Of The Week. . You know that Borges story about the guy who tried to rewrite Don Quixote word-for-word? He doesn’t finish the whole thing, of course, but the small parts that he does successfully reproduce (a few chapters and some extended verses) the author finds to be infinitely better and much more subtle than the original. That’s sort of how we feel when we say that the first song on the new Weeknd mixtape is better than anything by Michael Jackson.
