So after the massive break-through success of 'Earned It', The Weeknd is wasting no time in continuing to bring out the new music. The singers second full studio album is due out this Summer, and lo and behold, he has dropped the album's first single 'The Hills' on us today along with the accompanying video. I really think it is wonderful and has potential to be one of my favourite things he has done already. Listen below and form your own opinions:

I like 'The Hills' - it doesn't sound TOO different from his 'Trilogy' sound to me?

Now this is much better than that mediocre drab he has been putting out since the release of his debut LP (technically. Trilogy is still his true debut tho~).

Out of the 4 tracks that leaked yesterday i hope none will make it to the album. Well, maybe In the 90s. It sounds half decent.

Why and when did he become so utterly boring and safe. Trilogy is one of my favourite albums ever.

Absolutely love this. The middle eight is heavenly.
For me, Thursday is his weakest. It was always my least favourite from the trilogy and I'm pretty sure Kiss Land has surpassed it in my affections now!

#25 on UK iTunes. Crazy how much the success of 'Earned It' has increased his popularity!

All i am seeing is comments about him "selling out". It does sound comparatively 'generic' (for want of a better word), but i don't really care because it's still good.

It's absolutely fantastic. I've had this on repeat all week. It sounds like a massive #1 to me. Such an improvemnet on 'The Hills' and 'Earned it' - the latter which I despise. This is my second favourite from him after 'Often'

I wouldn't call "The Hills" and "Can't Feel My Face", more just a clever decision to build on the success of "Earned It". I'm sure he'll return to a perhaps more experimental sound after this album, once he's established a greater fanbase.

That said, these two are just fantastic tracks - glad to see The Weeknd finally riding high in the charts.

Just heard 'Can't Feel My Face' for the first time and it's such JAM. It's so, SO good!

Super late to this but 'The Hills' is incredddd. The production <3

'Can't Feel My Face' is GOOD too though I see why people are calling it a ~sellout~ (I say having heard very little of his previous music because I'm a commercial hoe).

Apparently Kanye and Ed Sheeran will be featured on this. So excited about a collab with the former...less so about the latter.

LOVE the name!

I bet it'll be an Apple Music exclusive.

I looked at the pre-order on iTunes and it doesn't look like "Earned It" will be on the official track list.

He needs to include "Earned It" on the album. It would sell a lot more copies
