"Earned It" tackles the subject of sex from an egotistical point of view, in which the Weeknd is positioned as a treasure that women have to tirelessly work to achieve. "Face," on the other hand, puts the Weeknd in the passenger's seat; instead of being the one controlling the pace, he finds himself seduced and enchanted by a mesmerizing woman (who may or may not be a metaphor for cocaine).

those are two songs, Rih's entire discography is like this
and the weeknd definitely sounds sleazy in his music, as if women are nothing more than ****toys to him, whereas Rih presents a much more healthy view to sex that encourages communication between partners as shown in 5 week #1 hit classic Rude Boy
