The Weeknd, JENNIE, Lily-Rose Depp – One Of The Girls (Official Video)

The Weeknd, an R&B singer who keeps delivering global hits.

If you follow Western music in Japan, you’ve probably heard his songs at least once.

Among his works, the one I especially recommend is One Of The Girls.

This track is currently popular on TikTok and Instagram, and overseas it’s already becoming a staple for Reels.

Its flowing, synthwave-driven sound is perfect for leisure or travel-themed Reels, so if you’re looking for BGM for your Reels, be sure to check it out.

Drake – Crew Love (feat. The Weeknd) HQ

A collaboration between Canadian rapper Drake and singer The Weeknd.

Released as a single in 2012, it reached No.

7 on the UK charts.

It was sampled in the 2012 track of the same name by Bizzle and Bumps INF.

Post Malone, The Weeknd – One Right Now

Released in November 2021, One Right Now is a collaboration between Post Malone and The Weeknd, two artists who command enormous support in the contemporary pop scene.

Built on a sleek synth-pop track that reflects a post-2020s trend, the interplay of Malone’s and The Weeknd’s emotional vocals and melodies creates a stunning contrast—truly exquisite.

Lyrically, however, it seems to be a message to an ex whose infidelity likely caused the breakup, conveying a sense of saying goodbye to the past relationship and already having someone new.

That said, depending on how you interpret it, it can also read as the poignant lament of a man still full of lingering attachment, unable to fully move on.

With that in mind—perhaps reading too much into it—the music video, in which the two stage a brutal shootout, feels oddly suggestive as well.

The Weeknd – Best Friends (Audio)

When it comes to graduation songs, ballads are what most people imagine.

So I’d like to introduce an electronic track with a deliberately cool vibe instead.

It’s called “Best Friends.” In a sense, it’s a ‘bestie anthem,’ portraying the inner conflict of a guy who starts developing romantic feelings for his close friend.

By the end of the song, it’s implied that he decides to hold those feelings back.

By the way, the lyrics are a bit explicit, so if you plan to play it somewhere, you might want to check them in advance.

The Weeknd – Gasoline (Official Music Video)

If you want to liven up your sports festival with Western music that has a unique vibe, Gasoline is a great pick.

This track appears on Dawn FM, released in 2022 by Canadian singer-songwriter The Weeknd.

It has a dark, somewhat ennui-laden feel.

You’ll experience airy synths that evoke ambient and trip-hop.

It’s also recommended for fans of contemporary dance music.

Why not use it not only during competitions, but also in the intervals and break times of the sports festival?
