The Weeknd‘s been posting teasers left and right to promote his upcoming compilation album, Trilogy, which will feature some of the spectacular songs made famous over the course of his mixtape series last year, along with some new treatd. Abel does not miss a beat on this brand new cut, bringing that same sultry voice and raw passion to his lyrics that should be all too familiar to his fans by now. While this particular song was not included on the tracklist for Trilogy, chances are that it’ll find its way into our hands sometime soon.

Taylor Gang captain Wiz Khalifa‘s second studio album is due out on December 4th and many fans are anxiously anticipating after feeling let down by Rolling Papers, his debut with Atlantic Records. Today, we get a glimpse with the second single from his upcoming project featuring the talented and innovate post-R&B artist, The Weeknd. “Remember You” opens with a steady drum kit and soft piano with ethereal electronic elements and the falsetto voice signature to The Weeknd. Wiz hops on shortly before the 2 minute mark with a luxurious, laid back verse and returns once again near the end of the track with some melodic vocals.

Check out this intoxicating cut below, keep an eye out for O.N.I.F.C. and enjoy the unique, and entertaining, album artwork above.

The Weeknd – Wicked Games (Remastered)

Posted by tylercole - September 17, 2012

Off his newly signed contract with Universal Republic, indie star The Weeknd dropped a relatively new track today. Although his single “Wicked Games” was already featured on his previous mixtape series House of Balloons, a remastered and enhanced version of the single is part of his commercial release. The newly-edited track isn’t as gritty as the original, but is a more refined emotional equivalent with altered instrumentation. His mixtape trilogy will be edited and released as part of his Universal Records debut album Trilogy, set to drop Nov. 13th. How do you Weeknd fans feel about this remastered version?

[Mash-Up] Tyler,the Recreator – The Ride Remix (Andre 3000 x The Weeknd)

Posted by Ash El Gamal - July 19, 2012

While everyone who has ever listened to an Outkast record eagerly anticipates some new material from 3 Stacks and Big Boi, we are forced to scrounge through music blogs for anything with a “ft. Andre 3000” appended. In my search, I was able to dig this treasure up. A mashup of The Weeknd assisted track The Ride, off of Drake’s Take Care, and Andre’s legendary verse from International Player’s Anthem. This works seamlessly and makes quite the compelling case for an authentic collaboration between these two enormous talents. Craftily mixed by an artist with a suspiciously similar name to the OF lead man, this mashup should certainly help hold music fans over until we get some more new music from the ATLien. No need to thank me because as Dre would say, “you know I got your back like chiroprac.”
