The Weeknd

Abel Makkonen Tesfaye (Scarborough, Toronto, Ontario, 16 de febrero de 1990), conocido artísticamente como The Weeknd, es un cantante, compositor, productor discográfico y actor canadiense. Conocido por su versatilidad sónica y lirismo oscuro, su música explora el escapismo, el romance y la melancolía, y a menudo se inspira en experiencias personales. Ha recibido numerosos elogios, incluidos cuatro premios Grammy, 20 premios Billboard Music Awards, 17 premios Juno, seis American Music Awards, dos MTV Video Music Awards y nominaciones para un premio de la Academia y un premio Primetime Emmy. Nacido y criado en Toronto, Tesfaye comenzó su carrera en 2009, cuando tan sólo tenía 19 años, lanzando música de forma anónima en YouTube. Dos años después, cofundó el sello discográfico XO y lanzó los mixtapes House of Balloons, Thursday y Echoes of Silence, que ganaron reconocimiento por su estilo de R&B contemporáneo y alternativo y la mística que rodea su identidad. En 2012, firmó con Republic Records y relanzó los mixtapes en el álbum recopilatorio Trilogy. Leer más en Wikipedia
