Considered the 2 big headliners of Toronto in Canada, The Weeknd and Drake are known for their conflicted relationship. Between the collaborations, the marks of respect and the pikes, it is difficult to know on which foot to dance with the 2 artists with global success. However, their relationship has been looking good lately, as Drizzy even wished Abel Makkonen Tesfaye a happy birthday on Tuesday.. The interpreter of Headlines indeed shared a photo of The Weeknd and him dating from several years in his story, wishing his compatriot a long life full of success as a legend of the cliché. This is not the first time that Drizzy has supported his colleague since on the occasion of the Super Bowl, he had already congratulated the 31-year-old singer for his performance: “A great moment for the city !!!!”, In reference to Toronto.

A conflictual past
If they collaborated together 3 times on the songs Crew Love, The Zone and Live For, the 2 artists have experienced ups and downs in their relationship. A time tipped to sign on 6 God’s label, OVO Sound, The Weeknd had finally struck a deal with Republic Records, at the same time creating his own structure, XO, with his manager Amir Esmailian in 2012. A decision that would not have pleased his friend at the time. Reconciled during the tour Boy Meet World Tour in 2017, the tension had risen again to a notch following the rumors that Drake had dated Bella Hadid, the ex-girlfriend of the interpreter of The Hills. In 2019, The Weeknd released for its part a subliminal spike probably addressed to its counterpart in Lost in The Fire, featuring with Gesaffelstein: “And I just want a baby with the right one / Cause I’ll never be the one to hide one …”, He sang, in reference to Adonis, the hidden son that Drake had with the former actress of pornographic films Sophie Brussaux. A little boy that he will ultimately end up assuming and with whom he regularly posts photos. Lil Wayne’s protege finally ended up burying the hatchet with his friend, still in 2019, during a freestyle titled War in which he declared: “And the guy who sings like he’s posed on Thriller/ You know it’s always been my n * gro / Yeah, we just had things to sort out / We can’t just stay apart”. It remains for the 2 artists to quickly meet in the studio for a new collaboration …
