Musical Fusion: The Weeknd's Most Memorable Collaborations Across Genres

So, The Weeknd's been all over the place when it comes to working with other artists. He's not just sticking to one genre - he's been mixing it up with electronic, hip-hop, pop, you name it.
 
 
Back in 2014, he teamed up with Disclosure on a song called "Nocturnal." It was this cool mix of electronic dance music and R&B. People really dug how The Weeknd could adapt his style to fit with Disclosure's beats.
 
 
Then in 2015, he worked with Kanye West on a remix of "Tell Your Friends." Kanye produced it, and it gave a fresh spin to The Weeknd's original song.
 
 
One of his biggest collabs was with Daft Punk. They did "Starboy" and "I Feel It Coming" together in 2016. These songs were huge hits and showed The Weeknd moving more into electronic and dance music.
 
 
In 2019, he surprised everyone by singing in Spanish on a remix of Maluma's "Hawái." This really helped him reach more international fans.
 
 
He's also done some work for movies. Remember that song "Pray for Me" from the Black Panther soundtrack? That was The Weeknd with Kendrick Lamar.
 
 
More recently, in 2020, he did a remix of "Blinding Lights" with Rosalía. She sang some parts in Spanish, which made the song even more popular worldwide.
 
 
Basically, The Weeknd's not afraid to try new things and work with all kinds of different artists. It's cool to see how he can fit into so many different styles of music. Who knows what he'll do next, but it's pretty clear he's not going to stick to just one lane.
