The Weeknd and his hair have been a topic of debate for many of us. I am personally a fan. Abel is the king of the fall (don’t @ me), and in royal fashion, he returns this fall from his brief hiatus with that new new. We got artwork for his new project Starboy, a single featuring the legendary Daft Punk and a new look.

He’s serving us post apocalyptic pop sensation with a dark secret, and magic powers.

I’m not sure if that’s really what’s going on here, but that is there narrative that this image inspires. Mr. Tesfaye looks like he’s about to launch the trillest comic book series/album that world has ever seen. Obviously the timeline weighed in immediately, so let’s take a peek at what has been said. Yes, even the slander, too.

For some this was the answer to long nights of prayers.

And for others, it was not.

I just didn’t picture Wesley Snipes to be one of them. C’mon uncle Wes, let Abel cook.

But one thing is true, a banger is a banger.

The first single is out and ready for you to stream asaptually. The album Starboy is scheduled for a November 25th release. This should definitely be interesting.
