Have you seen the YouTube video explaining how to create a hologram on your smartphone? Can you imagine watching The Weeknd Can’t Feel My Face video in 3D? Have you seen the part when he’s dancing while on fire? And all this time, you thought only Fantastic Four characters could do that.
Right now the Canadian singer has the number 1 Billboard Hot 100 song. He was born to sing. He thrills music fans. What is more, the story of chasing your dreams never gets old.
Did you know The Weekend dropped out of high school when he was 17? How many great entertainers skip college? To paraphrase, Ellen DeGeneres told the Tulane University graduating class “they wasted their money.”
The Love Me Harder singer gets plenty of love and money. Like Lenny Kravitz and Bruno Mars, his groupies are enthusiastic about him. And like a Rolling Stone, the tempting lyricist aka Papa has a home alongside a hat.
Moreover, this 25 year old has youth on his side. But, the artist remains controversial because he frequently references drugs in his music. Despite being explicit, the celebrity completes his objectives. Entertainers should entertain. That’s all.
If celebs want to voice their objections, more power to them. Be aware though that politics is filthier than adult entertainment. Hollywood bosses and music executives look like saints compared to Presidential candidates.
I like that the Weekend isn’t politically correct because political correctness paralyzes pop culture. The Weeknd represents a challenge to the status quo. You see The Weeknd is popular because his lyrics and music videos are not safe for weekdays.
Remember the Alicia Keys song “this girl is on fire!” Well, the Weeknd is on fire too! This boy needs a fire extinguisher, pronto. Give The Weeknd 5 years. He is destined to explode.
