In this video, I examine The Weeknd’s discography to better understand the recurring toxic themes/elements of his music.
I go through his early days as an unknown artist releasing his mixtapes for free (House of Balloons, Thursday, Echoes of Silence), to his ascension towards mainstream superstardom (Kiss Land, Beauty Behind The Madness, Starboy), to his more recent albums delving into performance art (After Hours & Dawn FM).
