The Weeknd Finally Drops ‘Starboy’ [LISTEN]

After much promotion, including pop up shops, gorgeous videos, an intense short film and appearances on late night TV, The Weeknd's Starboy has finally arrived.

The 18-track album features Daft Punk on the title track and on "I Feel it Coming," while Kendrick Lamar shows up on the creeping, mid-tempo, "Sidewalks"—a feature that recently prompted The Weeknd to label Lamar a "genius."  and Lana Del Rey makes an appearance on "Stargirl Interlude." On "Six Feet Under," which sounds like part two of his Beyoncé Lemonade assist, "6 Inch" he shares the tale of a woman who "ain't got time for lovin'" but is gonna get that "f---in paper."

The Weeknd has already announced plans to head out on a massive global run in 2017, Starboy Legend of the Fall Tour, which kicks off in February. As for the album, the singer has already dropped videos for the title track and "False Alarm," both of which are bloody and metaphorical, as well as Mania a short film which serves as a companion to the album.
