The Weeknd Shares New Songs From ‘The Idol’ Soundtrack

    Prior to the second episode of his controversial HBO series The Idol dropping on Sunday, the Weeknd has unveiled two more songs from the soundtrack. ‘World Class Sinner / I’m a Freak’ is performed by Lily-Rose Depp, while show’s theme song ‘The Lure’ is credited to the Weeknd and Mike Dean. Take a listen below.

    “I was planning on dropping the whole soundtrack for idol by the finale, but I’m too hyped…,” the singer wrote on Instagram. “Instead, I wanna drop new music from the show every week with each episode. I’m excited for you guys to hear what we’ve been cooking and all these incredible artists that are a part of this show… this week… Jocelyn’s pop song ‘world class sinner’ and ‘the lure’ (theme score)… episode 2 this Sunday.”

    Last week, the Weeknd released ‘Popular’, a collaboration with Madonna and Playboi Carti. He previously previewed the soundtrack with the Future-assisted ‘Double Fantasy’.
