The “Starboy” singer has been teasing fans with new music for a few months now, and on March 27 he shared a mysterious text conversation with who appears to be Kendrick Lamar on Instagram. “Should we drop Friday? I’m indifferent to be honest,” the post read. It unclear as to whether they were talking about a collaboration or a full album, but now we know the truth! It was somewhere in between.
Things escalated when the album art for My Dear Melancholy began circulating on social media. A link titled “theweeknd.co/MDM” was live for a little while before being taken down, and it contained links to what appeared to be an album on Spotify, Apple Music and the other usual platforms.
Well, we’re glad we didn’t have to wait link to find out. BRB, streaming this for the rest of 2018!
