The Weeknd Reveals 'Beauty Behind the Madness' Tracklisting
In less than a month, The Weeknd will release one of the most anticipated albums of the year, Beauty Behind the Madness. The 14 tracks feature the singles “Often,” “The Hills,” and “Can’t Feel My Face,” which becomes the Canadian crooner’s first digital No. 1. Guests include Lana Del Rey, Ed Sheeran, and Labrinth.
The album boasts a more upbeat pop sound than his 2013 debut Kiss Land. “It’s about me being who I am and stepping out of my comfort zone to try to feel something else besides what I’ve been feeling the past four years,” he told The New York Times. “Ups and downs. … In my past albums, there were never ups.”
I had a blast on @JimmyFallon doing #CantFeelMyFace. Wait till you see the real @TheWeeknd perform it at the @MTV #VMAs on Aug 30.
