Toronto’s rap Avengers, aka the supergroup Full Circle, delivered the visuals for their gritty, self-titled track. Standouts from the Prime Boys and Dream Team return once again, this time, tearing up a piano beat courtesy of Boi-1da. It’s a banger from start to finish, especially SAFE’s interlude into Donnie’s abrasive, auto-tuned bars.
KROY, "Learn"
EMP, "Rebellion"
Machinedrum ft. Rochelle Jordan “Tell U”
The Weeknd ft. Daft Punk, "Starboy"

It’s already dominating the airwaves, and for good reason too. The Weeknd’s foray into electropop is becoming more evident with each new release, and getting a Daft Punk cosign, really cements his current status in music. “Starboy” sounds like Abel hopped onto an 808s & Heartbreak leftover, and we mean that in the best way possible. Prepare for the season with the King Of The Fall. For the second year straight, The Weeknd is going to be everywhere.
