The Weeknd debuted a new track while headlining a YouTube SXSW showcase on Friday. Watch the footage below.
The new track, rumoured to be called 'Mood Music', is not yet confirmed to feature on a new album by The Weeknd. A mellow new tease, the track features Abel Tesfaye's vocals sounding sombre as ever, with the track eventually building to a drop so bassy that it feels like you're being thrown down a slide headfirst. It bodes well for future material from the Candian alt-R&B singer.
