The Weeknd became a trending topic on Twitter not only because he is dropping a new album but also because he cut his trademark dreadlocks hair.
We never thought the Abel would chop his locks off but when you have a new album coming out you do whatever you need to do to bring more attention to it. His last project Beauty Behind The Madness was a huge success. Now the Canadian singer is looking to top the success with his sophomore album “Starboy.”

“i come alive in the fall time,” The Weeknd wrote on Instagram.

What do you think about The Weeknd’s album cover?
The R&B singer calls it his best sounding work to date during a recent interview with VMAN. “I think it’ll be the best-sounding album I’ve ever done,” he said. “It’s hard to label the sound because, when I first came out, nobody would label it R&B. I just want to keep pushing the envelope without it feeling forced.”
