All the smoke about The Weeknd collaborating with French helmet wearing producers, Daft Punk, turned out to be true after all. Instead of our favorite robots having their way and turning the Weeknd to 128 bpm, it turns out that the Canadian’s downtempo R&B style overpowers the dance vibes in the single, “Starboy.”
The Weeknd announced the forthcoming release of his new album via XO/Republic Records “Starboy,” November 25. Look for the steamy top 40 artist to contribute as musical guest on “Saturday Night Live” October 1.
