The two of the biggest musical stars of today, Ariana Grande and The Weeknd have once again collaborated, and this time on the remix of the singer’s 2016 hit ‘Die For You’.
When in 2016, The Weeknd released his smash hit album ‘Starboy‘, everybody showered love upon it and it became one of the most successful albums of that year. Now, all thanks to TikTok the emergence of old favorites is going viral every day, and 2016’s mega-hit ‘Die For You’ is one of the trending songs on the platform. It once again has entered mainstream popularity with ease and is seeing a rise in the charts. Its sudden emergence on the platform was not due to a particular trend or a sped version of the track. This is why The Weeknd made the smart choice of releasing a remix with the fan-favorite vocal powerhouse Ariana Grande.
Their last collaboration was on ‘Off The Table’ which was on Ariana Grande’s last released album ‘Positions’ and The Weeknd’s song, the remix of ‘Save Your Tears’, both released in 2020. Now the remix of ‘Die For You’ was kind of expected by the fans, especially due to the resurgence of the original song on the charts. ‘Die For You’ remained in the top 10 of the Billboard Hot 100 for the last seven weeks, with a peak position at No. 6. So now the singer is capitalizing on the song’s success with the help of the ‘Thank You next’ single.
The news of Ariana being on the remix came just two days earlier of the release when she posted a TikTok of her working on some sections of ‘Die For You’. she also captioned the video saying “Wrote and recorded a verse for my friend after a 14 hour day on set. This certain exception had to be made”. In the clip, she can be seen cutting vocal takes and layering the harmonies. After Ariana posted this on her Instagram as well, the creepin’ singer also reposted that clip on his story with a teary-eyed emoji confirming the collaboration. Now that the song is released on all digital platforms, the fans can hardly keep calm. Especially after a long hiatus of almost 3 years, Ariana Grande is singing again, so the listeners and the singer are showering the track with love and support.
The remix is definitely worthy of all the praise, especially Ariana adding so much to the song. Her vocals complement the vocals of The Weeknd perfectly, enhancing the song’s original message. Both stars have created such an amazing ambiance with the record that the listeners want to replay it again and again. You can now listen to it on all digital platforms.
