tHE WEEkND - SUPERHERO & tHE CURE

Two new (old) songs have leaked from R&B’s most elusive artist The Weeknd have leaked to the internets–unreleased tracks from sessions with his previous production crew The Noise, to be exact. Although unmistakably the work and distinctive voice of Abel Tesfaye, “Superhero” sounds more like R & Bibbity as it is conventionally understood, a pretty big contrast from the darker palette of drugs, empty hotel rooms, streaky make-up and oddly sinister balloons we have come to recognize as The Weeknd’s kingdom. 

“The Cure,” on the other hand, with its sawing strings and slightly more gothic feel, sounds like a transitional stage from one to the other–Dark n’ B in a state of becoming. download below.

WHAt YOU NEED

WiCkED GAMES

I left my girl back home, I don't love her no more
And she'll never f*cking know that, these f*cking eyes that I'm staring at
Let me see that ass, look at all this cash
And I've emptied out my cards too
Now I'm f*cking leaning on that

Bring your love baby I can bring my shame
Bring the drugs baby I can bring my pain
I got my heart right here, I got my scars right here
Bring the cups baby I can bring the drink
Bring your body baby I can bring you fame

That's my motherf*cking word too
Just let me motherf*cking love you

Listen ma, I'll give you all I got
Give me all of this, I mean confidence in myself
Listen ma, I'll give you all of me
Give me all of it, I need all of it to myself

So tell me you love me
Only for tonight
Only for tonight
Even though you don't love me

Just tell me you love me
I'll give you all of me, I'll give you all of me
Even though you don't love me

Let me see you dance
I love to watch you dance

Take you down another level
Get you dancing with the devil
Take a shot of this
But I'm warning you
I'm on that shit that you can't smell baby
So, put down your perfume

Bring your love baby I can bring my shame
Bring the drugs baby I can bring my pain
I got my heart right here, I got my scars right here
Bring the cups baby I can bring the drink
Bring your body baby I can bring you fame

That's my motherf*cking word too
So let me motherf*cking love you

Listen ma, I'll give you all I got
Give me all of this, I mean confidence in myself
Listen ma, I'll give you all of me
Give me all of it, I need all of it to myself
I need all of it
So tell me you love me
Only for tonight
Only for tonight
Even though you don't love me
Oh, oh
Just tell me you love me
I'll give you all of me, I'll give you all of me
Even though you don't love me

NEW tRACk: tHE WEEKND - tHE BiRDS (PARt 1)

Everything Abel Tesfaye (you know him as The Weeknd, pronounced ‘weakened’ and not ‘weekend’ for those misinformed) brings to the overcrowded table right now is absolutely one step ahead of his peers: from attitude and image to production, melodies, and marketing. ‘The Birds (Part 1)’ is no exception despite being his most digestible radio track yet, while still retaining a rhythmic, pause-and-start swag we’re just not getting from mainstream most if not all R&B cookie-cutters today.

Believe the buzz, as we look forward to the scheduled mixtape-albums Thursday (Summer) and Echoes of Silence (Autumn) following up on the brilliant debut, House Of Ballons.

the Weeknd

The Weeknd is a Toronto-based singer named Abel Tesfaye. Songs recorded under 'The Weeknd' name first leaked in late 2010, though the identity of the individual behind the project was initially unknown. The Weeknd released a nine-song album, House Of Ballons, on 21 March 2011. The album is a part of a trilogy which includes Thursday and Echoes of Silence, to be released in the summer and autumn respectively.

In late 2010, The Weeknd uploaded three songs - "What You Need", "Loft Music" and "The Morning" - to his YouTube channel. A nine-track album titled House of Balloons was digitally released on 21 March 2011 through the artist's official website. Artist Drake has been partly credited for generating public awareness for The Weeknd, after he quoted a line from the track "Wicked Games" via Twitter and linked to the singer's music on his website. In a review of the House of Balloons album, Pitchfork Media's Joe Colly wrote thatthese weird, "all the thematic and sonic pieces fit together - morning-after tales of lust, hurt, and over-indulgence ... are matched by this incredibly lush, downcast music. It's hard to think of a record that so fully embodies such a specific nocturnal quality." The album isdi "brilliant, disturbing, and not safe for work," calling the song "Loft Music" a song that is "so unsafe it should come with a child-proof cap, so dirty that you’ll feel guilty the next time you see your wife." "It's patient, often gorgeous, and consistently louche ... with the sort of blown-out underbelly and echo-laden crooning that has already made Drake's less-than-a-year-old Thank Me Later such an influential guidepost." Maegan McGregor of Exclaim! praised the album: "Packed full of sex, drugs and some downright killer production, this easily stands as one of the year's best debuts so far, hipster, top 40 or otherwise." Sputnik Music's Tyler Fisher said that "despite being a free mixtape, House of Balloons feels like a true album, a true labor of love."

The mystery surrounding The Weeknd is starting to dissipate. He’s still mysterious, but he’s gone from a complete question mark to a human being who has shadows and footprints. Before he was called The Weeknd, Tesfaye was part of a production team called The Noise. These tracks are from those days
