The Weeknd, Playboi Carti – Timeless

The Weeknd and Playboi Carti Dominate September with New Joint Single “TIMELESS”

September has been a big month for music, with The Weeknd and Playboi Carti leading the charge. Both artists have been building anticipation for their upcoming albums, and the hype culminated in new music that fans have been craving. Playboi Carti, who hadn’t released new music since 2020, broke his silence, and The Weeknd kept the momentum going with another single. However, the most unexpected surprise came when both artists dropped a joint single, “TIMELESS.” As its title suggests, the track delivers on all the buzz, blending their unique styles into a bass-heavy, catchy anthem.

The Weeknd Shines, Channeling His Trilogy Era

In “TIMELESS,” The Weeknd takes center stage, which feels natural since he’s been leading the promotional efforts. His vocals glide over the beat effortlessly, evoking memories of his Trilogy days, with moody melodies and haunting tones. Around the 1:50 mark, his signature soaring falsetto blends with the drum patterns in a way that feels truly mesmerizing, adding a nostalgic yet refreshing touch to the song. Fans of his earlier work will appreciate how “TIMELESS” taps into that same energy, while still pushing his sound forward.

Playboi Carti Brings an Edge to the Collaboration

While The Weeknd’s vocals dominate the melodic structure, it’s Playboi Carti’s presence that gives “TIMELESS” its gritty undercurrent. The synths scattered throughout the track feel reminiscent of the experimental sound Carti has been teasing for his upcoming album, adding a darker, more dangerous edge compared to The Weeknd’s previous release, “Dancing In the Flames.” Carti ditches the Future-inspired flow he employed on “ALL RED” in favor of a more authentic, raw delivery, reminding fans why his influence on the current rap scene is so profound.

This collaboration perfectly marries The Weeknd’s ethereal sound with Carti’s underground, gritty vibes, making “TIMELESS” an exciting preview of what might come from their respective albums.

[Intro: The Weeknd]XO
Ooh, yeah, ooh, yeah, no

[Verse 1: Playboi Carti & The Weeknd]Ever since I was a jit, knew I was the shit (Ooh, yeah)
Shorty keep wanna come ’round, she wanna get hit (Wanna get hit so hard)
She think she the main because I keep her by my side
Double-O, bust down the watch, she know that I’m timeless (Timeless)
I put my son in some Rick
I pull that gun off the hip
Pockets hold twenty-two clips (Ah)
I break her heart, Comme Garçons
Put on a shirt, get put on a blimp
Bitch like a stain, get ready to lick
I had to tell her that ever since I was a jit, knеw I was the shit(Oh)
She singin’ my songs, she wanna diе lit, tryna get hit
House like a bank, deposit this bitch, deposit that check
Smile on my face, ain’t playing shit, come and get checked (Uh)
Ice on my neck, double-O wrist
She in the Scat, hell of a ‘Cat
Fresh out the trench, four hundred packs
Uh, yeah, I’m spinnin’ in Paris (Uh)
Dress for these hoes, they finna flock
Just poured a four in a soda, it pop
Them drugs finna hit, I’m feelin’ ill
I’m wrestlin’ all of my demons, I feel like The Rock

[Chorus: The Weeknd & Playboi Carti](Shit, uh, yeah)
Ever since I was a kid, I been legit (Jit, ooh, nah)
If I was you, I would cut up my wrist (Dumb bit’)

[Verse 2: The Weeknd & Playboi Carti]Oh, city on fire when I’m comin’ home
Fill up the sky (Yeah), I fill up the Dome
They’ll play it one day (Yeah), it’s a hell of a show
But it’s gonna hurt ’cause we did it first
Feel like Skateboard P, BBC boys on the creep
Feel like it’s ’03, Neptune drum with a beam (Yeah)
She hippie-flippin’ a bean, she wanna fuck with the team
She fell in love with the cream (Yeah), she fell in love with the scene
Ooh, yeah, her man quiet, not a peep (Oh, nah)
Broke his heart, PTSD (Oh, nah)
Hold his chest, let it breathe
Let it breathe, niggas scheme
And I got a priest, he got a cross
Get out of line, send him to God
I shed a tear, pray for a loss, ooh, yeah (Yeah)
[Chorus: The Weeknd & Playboi Carti]Ever since I was a kid, I been legit (Homixide, Homixide, Homixide, oh, oh)
