The project garnered so much pre ads on Apple Music regardless of the fact that The Weeknd has confirmed that it’ll only be his voice we’ll be hearing this evening on the album.

He told TMZ that there won’t be any features on the project and in addition to that, he also shared a statement regarding his decision to release this new album in the face of a global crisis, saying, “Let the music heal us all during these dark times.”
