The Weeknd & Lana Del Rey Are A Perfect Fit On The Gloomy New Single "Prisoner"
The Weeknd is on a roll, folks. With Beauty Behind The Madness just around the corner, a freshly announced tour schedule and the hottest song on the damn planet, Abel Tesfaye is winning beyond any reasonable measure. Today, yet another leak appears to have surfaced from the record, this time around, featuring the brooding gloom of pop starlet Lana Del Rey (or as I like to call her, this generation's Patti Smith.) "Prisoner" finds the two commiserating over the many dooms of the 24-hour party life, each swooning with their croons over a hazy, creeping synth-soaked ballad that's just light enough to bump during those night-time-is-the-right-time moments. And it's available for you to stream down below. But don't stop there. Go ahead and preorder The Weeknd's Beauty Behind The Madness LP on iTunes today ahead of its August 28th release and start stacking some change to see your boy on tour this fall with Travi$ Scott and Banks for a triple-dose of melancholic mood music, the dates for which are listed below.
