The Weeknd


Ok. If you read my about me, you know that I went to school in California once upon a time and am actually a resident there, but whatever. I went out to California not knowing much about The Weeknd, except for the song, "Do It" which is posted below. Upon going out to California, I not only heard his music constantly, but I came to love the Weeknd and frequently listen to his music. On top of this, he has recently released his three mixtapes remastered as the retail album "Trilogy" which reached the number 1 spot on the Billboard Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums this year. This guy is 22. Seriously.
If you aren't into the typical smooth, sensual rhythm that is The Weeknd's usual sounds, you may like the more upbeat nature of "Do It", but in addition to the two that I have already posted (High For This and The Morning) you need to check out my other personal favorite "XO/The Host".
I've heard mixed reviews on the east coast on this guy, but it's worth knowing his name if you can't appreciate the talent.
Do you want me to do it?
