View this post on Instagram TSR STAFF: Tanya P.! @tanyaxpayne ________________ Whew! Roommates, it seems #TheWeeknd got very candid in an interview with @Variety and spoke about a wide range of topics. Though the discussion of his own music was at the forefront of the interview, it was his thoughts on #Usher’s 2012 hit #Climax that is causing an uproar on social media. ___________ There’s no denying that The Weeknd has made hits and has influenced many other artists, but did he try it when he spoke on Usher? 👀 In the interview, he recounts the time he first heard Usher’s song. He went on to say: “House of Balloons literally changed the sound of pop music before my eyes. I heard ‘Climax,’ that [2012] Usher song, and was like, ‘Holy f**k, that’s a Weeknd song.’ It was very flattering, and I knew I was doing something right, but I also got angry. But the older I got, I realized it’s a good thing.” ___________ Since the release of the interview, social media is feeling A WAY about it! SWIPE to hear a snippet of the song and tell us what you think? (📸: @gettyimages) A post shared by The Shade Room (@theshaderoom) on Apr 8, 2020 at 11:08am PDT
