The Weeknd has unveiled another new song - this time a collaboration with Drake. Listen to 'Live For' below.

Earlier this week, Abel Tesfaye posted a stream of his remix of 'Royals' by Lorde. This follows on from a relentless run of new material  from the Canadian star, including 'Love In The Sky', album title track 'Kiss Land', alongside the brilliant 'Belong To The World' as well as collaborations with Kavinsky, Juicy J and Ricky Hill.

'Live For It' starts with crackling static before a chilling sample of an acoustic guitar plays beneath Tesfaye's usual sombre but heartfelt tones. The track builds into a moody but upbeat R&B mantra of "this is the shit that I live for" before Drake adds his quick-tongued brooding tones. It's pretty good.

The Weeknd returns to the UK to kick off a mini-tour at Birmingham's NIA on November 22, before heading to Manchester's O2 Apollo on November 23 and finishing at the O2 Arena in London on November 26. For more information visit Gigwise gig tickets
