The Weeknd (Abel Tesfaye) is one of my favorite artists of all time because his music is really great to listen to in the nighttime, which is my favorite part of life in general. It’s also really lively and his vocals are excellent. He is from my country, and although he doesn’t speak much of the language, we really support him and his career as an artist. I suggest anyone that if would like to listen to him, please do!
