The Weeknd is finally opening up. The singer, born Abel Tesfaye is on the cover of August / September issue of Complex magazine. In the interview, he has opened up about his mysterious identity, how different Kiss Land will be from his Trilogy album, rumors of not getting along with Drake and much more.
People think you guys arenât cool with each other anymore.
No, thatâs not true. Definitely not true. But it makes sense. The thing about Drake is I told him what my decisions were going to be. And he was down with it from the beginning.You mean in terms of your label deal?
Everything. I told him from day one what my decision was going to be. I wasnât going that route. I was going to go my own route. And he supported me.So when you read things about how you two are not coolâŚ
âheâs like me when it comes to shit like that, too. He loves reading that stuff.You both just brush it off?
Of course. I donât like to spoon-feed people. I donât like to be like, âYou know what? Iâm going to let the world know that weâre cool. Weâre going to take a picture together. Everyoneâs cool.â Itâs all about the mystery, and people like it. Shitâs WWE, man. Itâs wrestling, you know what I mean?
