Day 377: The Weeknd remixes "Drunk In Love" (Audio)



This shit right here tho.. ok I'll admit Bey's original version of "Drunk In Love" is pretty good, but The Weeknd does an awesome job creating his own version & darkening it up a bit. If I were to choose which version is better, I'm going with XO.

Day 353: What's in my playlist? French Montana ft. The Weeknd - Gifted (Music Video)



"I'm gifted when I'm faded,
I'm faded all the time;
Because I know that's when they love me,
They love me when I'm high.."

A nice collabo between French Montana x The Weeknd. I'm not a big fan of French but The Weeknd definitely puts a lot of his flavor into this track, which is why I'm hooked on this chorus.

Just started listening to The Weeknd's new album, and I'm getting hooked. I also saw him live in LA at the Greek Theater tonight so I thought it'd be a good time to post it up.

Check the "Kissland" album stream after the jump.

Day 230: Very moved by this song - "The Knowing" by The Weeknd (Music Video)



Such a visually-trippy music video by The Weeknd so I had to post it up for everybody to see. This song gets very deep with mixed emotion, and the Weeknd does a great job doing this with all his music in general which is why I'm so drawn to his style #nohomo

In case you didn't know, this song is from the House of Balloons mixtape which you can download for free right here if you don't have it already: the-weeknd.com . I still got it up on my Mixtape on Blast section to the right if you just want to sample his music here. Awesome mixtape btw.

Day 204: Wish I coulda been in Canada for this - OVOFest behinds the scene (Video)



Yea, this video is a tad late but I just wanna show everyone that I really enjoy live shows/music these days since I missed out on soo much when I younger, and hope the people I'm reaching have a similar appreciation to enjoy this video I'm posting.

There are a lot of Hip-Hop shows in LA but I'm having trouble finding the time and the right people who want to go with me. S'all good tho.. as long as I stay motivated...

Day 173: Trust me girl.. you wanna be... "High For This" - The Weeknd (Music Video)

The Weeknd - High For This (Unofficial Music Video)

- Alt Audio Link

So, my homie got me to listen to this recent free CD that just came out by The Weeknd called House Of Balloons (click for a free dl link), and dam... I gotta say I'm pretty impressed with their style of music. If you like slow jams mixed with dark/sensual beats, a lot of emotions, and some edgy-ness lyrically then you'll definitely like this kind of music.

I'm most impressed with how well they've composed these songs together on that CD. I mean cmon, the vocals are freakin amazing and the beats are different, in a good way. It's like a new sound.. a new flavor, which I'm starting to like. I'm trying to be more open-minded with music these days so maybe that's helping me get an ear for this.

Don't get me wrong, I'll always put Hip-Hop/Rap as my #1 music but I can make an exception for this d00d. FYI, Drake co-signed & is working with this guy so I'm sure he'll have a "bright" future coming.

If you're too lazy to dl their free CD then listen to the streaming SoundCloud I posted to the right in the 'Mixtape On Blast' section >>>>>
