Unlike some of us, the Weeknd made the most of the weekend. Last night, post-R&B maestro Abel Tesfaye dropped a new track via Soundcloud, “King of the Fall,” and the album artwork features none other than Sky Ferreria (who doesn’t seem to appear on the song).
You can listen and download the “King of the Fall” below.
The Weekend is also starting to slowly roll out dates for his upcoming “King of the Fall” tour, which finds Sir Tesfaye hitting the road with Schoolboy Q and Jhené Aiko. There’s no Boston date as of press time, but that off day between Brooklyn (September 19) and Toronto (September 21) seems rather ideal. Here are the dates so far, according to Pitchfork.
The Weeknd:
09-19 Brooklyn, NY – Barclays Center *#
09-21 Toronto, Ontario – Molson Canadian Amphitheatre *#
10-09 Los Angeles, CA – Hollywood Bowl *#
10-10 San Francisco, CA – Bill Graham Civic Auditorium *#* with Schoolboy Q
# with Jhené Aiko
And here’s a closer look at that artwork…
