The Weeknd, Starboy, November 25th

The Weeknd is back with new music and a new haircut. They are both the bomb.

The first single from the new album is also the title track, and worthy of many plays, on repeat. Get ready to be obsessed.

"House so empty, need a centerpiece 20 racks a table cut from ebony Cut that ivory into skinny pieces Then she clean it with her face man I love my baby You talking money, need a hearing aid You talking bout me, I don’t see the shade Switch up my style, I take any lane I switch up my cup, I kill any pain Look what you’ve done I’m a motherfuckin’ starboy Look what you’ve done I’m a motherfuckin’ starboy -“Starboy”"

Look, I couldn’t tell you what most of these lyrics mean, and I don’t care. It’s moody and I love it. Apparently the song and video are some sort of love song to cars and material possessions. Perhaps it’s irony, but again, I don’t care. It’s that good.

The video? The audio is slightly different in the beginning than what you’ll hear on “official audio” tracks. You can thank Daft Punk for their feature on the track, which is just… just dope.
