Just hours after revealing the name of his third studio album, Starboy, The Weeknd shares the title track. On the Daft Punk-assisted tune, Abel boasts about his material possessions.
“I’m trying to put you in the worst mood / P1 cleaner than your church shoes / Nelly point two just to hurt you / All red Lamb’ just to teas you / None of these toys on lease too / Made your whole year in a week too / Main bitch out your league too / Side bitch out of your league too,” he sings.
Starboy is slated to release on November 25 via Republic Records. It will feature 18 tracks including another song called “False Alarm.”
Speaking on his new album with VMAN, The Weeknd said, “There are new inspirations on this album. The production feels aggressive but still sexy. The Smiths, Bad Brains, Talking Heads, Prince, and DeBarge play roles. We wrote it all in Los Angeles.”
He continued, “I think it’ll be the best-sounding album I’ve ever done. It’s hard to label the sound because, when I first came out, nobody would label it R&B. I just want to keep pushing the envelope without it feeling forced.”
