There’s no artist that’s as hot right now as the Canadian-born crooner, Abel Tesfaye, or The Weeknd.
Though his last and only album was released in 2013, he’s making waves with his new singles and we can say with certainty his new stuff is going to be a hit.
Whether or not you liked the blockbuster Fifty Shades of Grey, you know you were jamming to the Weeknd’s song for the film, “Earned It”, as soon as you heard it.
Since then, he’s released the singles “Can’t Feel My Face” and “The Hills,” and they’re both climbing up the Billboard charts to be the singles of the summer.
Another cool fact about the musician is he allows for most of his albums to be downloaded free of charge and the Guardian reported him as “press-shy” back in 2011. Certainly, he didn’t reportedly do his first major interview until 2013 and since then only does one few and far between.
That’s got us wondering, how much is the Weeknd worth now, when it seems like he’s getting to the height of his success?
And that’s expected with the release of his sophomore album this summer. Stay tuned.
