Hot off of 4 songs leaking from his album, The Weeknd officially releases "The Hills" as the first taste from his upcoming album. Not the first single, but it's a buzz single and it's available on iTunes.

Better than EI but still not as good as stuff from their mixtapes. Not all of their songs are downbeat so I don't know why they consistently release downtempo tracks!

This is boring. It doesn't sound so far removed from his earlier material either, just when he was starting to show some growth.

This is rumoured to be about an affair with Ariana Grande. Ariana got in a car crash when she was visiting Big Sean in Hollywood Hills. "Your man on the road he doin' promo" could be about Big Sean who was recently doing promo for Dark Sky Paradise. Maybe it's not about that but I like the theory.

Well this is... interesting. First time a PBR&B / alternative R&B track actually gets pushed to alternative radio?

I don't see this doing anything on Active nor Alt. Was it released to AAA?

Moving this from Alt to Pop (for some reason it still showed up in Non-Singles too, so) since Republic Playbook has it listed under their Pop section now.

The Weeknd's got 2 songs in the top 10 of the Hot 100 at once! And he's now got 4 Hot 100 Top 10's under his belt.
