Beyoncé and Jay-Z's mega-hit, "Drunk In Love", has received numerous remixes recently. In the last two days, we've posted a completely unique interpretation and even a guest verse from Kanye West. Next to hop on the train is an artist that needs no introduction, The Weeknd. He incorporates his signature sound into every track he constructs, a fact that establishes him as one of the most consistently great R&B artists in the genre, and his cover of "Drunk In Love" doesn't stray from this style. An array of echoes and electronic nuances give The Weeknd an ideal platform to flex his vocal prowess. All of the sonic material seems to float in the air until a wave of bass crashes down, making the track bang. Layers of guitar strums and percussion lead to the electronically distorted moment of ecstasy, prior to the crescendo (a moment that is arguably the most remarkable part of the song). If you're a fan of The Weeknd, you're definintely in for a treat, and if you're not a fan of The Weeknd, this one may convert you. Scoop the FREE DL HERE.
