The Weeknd and Playboi Carti dropped their new single, “Timeless,” on Friday, Sept. 27.

They performed the track for the first time at The Weeknd’s one-night-only concert in São Paulo, Brazil, earlier in September, where the Canadian-Ethiopian superstar performed his latest single “Dancing in the Flames,” his “São Paulo” collaboration with Anitta and more new songs from his upcoming album, Hurry Up Tomorrow.


The two last collaborated together on “Popular” alongside the Queen of Pop Madonna in June 2023 from The Weeknd’s HBO drama series The Idol, which reached No. 43 on the Billboard Hot 100 and No. 14 on Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs. It was certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) in June 2024.
