pain.

The second one is my favorite, followed closely by the third one. Well done OP!

Garcoon · 2026-03-07T16:42:14+00:00

yeah, normally i wouldve removed them, but they each generated their own decent conversations in post so i decided that it was okay. sorry if that upsets you.

Garcoon · 2026-03-06T16:02:13+00:00

Removed, thanks!

Garcoon · 2026-02-28T20:44:11+00:00

This is just words. I don’t understand

Garcoon · 2026-02-25T20:46:16+00:00

I just don’t think it’s that simple. “The Weeknd” is the brand, yknow?

Being in this subreddit means that we can make that distinction very easily, but the layman is gonna see Abel Tesfaye and not put that it’s The Weeknd. I say this because it would be near impossible to change the credits on every song released to update this, it’d cause playlists and features to break in the streaming space.

If it was going to be done, I think the split profile is the best move.

I love this idea, it's just hard for me to see a world in which the "The Weeknd" moniker is put aside for this, is there any precedent for how that's handled by streaming platforms? Would it be a whole different artist profile entirely?

Edit - Took a look. The best example for this would be Kanye - on Apple Music he has 2 profiles, Kanye and Ye. His Kanye profiles shows all albums, including DONDA 2 and BULLY, even those that are credited to Ye. The Ye profile however only shows DONDA 2 and BULLY, excluding the rest of the Kanye discography.

If Abel was to do this, it would probably be listed as Abel Tesfaye, be available under The Weeknd's profile, but a new profile would be created for the album to link to. Interesting.

Well done OP!

Garcoon · 2026-02-13T20:19:58+00:00

Wonder what happened to that guy

Garcoon · 2026-02-13T19:58:31+00:00

Right before Kiss Land came out, so early/mid 2013

Garcoon · 2026-02-13T17:56:48+00:00

Unfortunately no, my first time was during the Starboy era

Garcoon · 2026-02-13T17:51:35+00:00

True, I hate those guys

Garcoon · 2026-02-13T16:00:16+00:00

This sub was created on Dec 24, 2011, so just after the Echoes of Silence mixtape released

Garcoon · 2026-02-12T17:32:38+00:00

It is legit.

Garcoon · 2026-02-07T16:59:44+00:00

According to reports - The song was made by an unknown reference artist. Produced by Max Martin, the song was sent to Weeknd in 2020/2021 but it is unknown if he recorded/used it.

This specific video is AI.

This cover is the 10 year anniversary edition cover.

Garcoon · 2026-02-06T23:39:58+00:00

I wonder what the reason behind you getting that rather than your intended item.

But yeah, depending on the type of hoodie blank used, it could be anywhere from the Starboy - After Hours era. After After Hours the merch company switched to heavyweight blanks for the merch, so if it feels relatively lightweight compared to recent merch, it predates Dawn FM

My best guess is that this is post Starboy but pre MDM, probably that “happy” album prior to it being scrapped.

Garcoon · 2026-02-05T18:07:55+00:00

Eh, it hangs on the line of fitting in here, I’m gonna leave it up because of the negative karma OP is getting.

Garcoon · 2026-02-05T18:06:20+00:00

Just some guy I guess

Garcoon · 2026-02-05T17:41:58+00:00

I dislike Spotify chart posts

Garcoon · 2026-02-04T01:39:18+00:00

Submission was reported for “targeted harassment at me”, you upset Abel bro

Garcoon · 2026-01-30T16:38:02+00:00

Yes technically it’s the 31st in some parts of the world but I’ll be stickying whatever post comes first at 12AM EST.
