Thank Travi$ Scott for making sure people heard it.

Fans of the Weeknd can preview a new song of his, thanks to Travi$ Scott. Last night the rapper posted a snippet of "Tell Your Friends," which he says is produced by Kanye West. If that's true, then West has the Weeknd sounding like an old soul with this slow, '70s R&B-inspired groove. (Never mind his complaints of "these niggas, they be doing too much flexing.") Regardless of who the producer is, "Tell Your Friends" shows how the Weeknd is looking to music's past to make himself a more likeable pop star—what would have seemed like a far-fetched notion less than five years ago, even when he was covering Michael Jackson's "Dirty Diana."

"Tell Your Friends" is the third track off the Weeknd's sophomore LP Beauty Behind the Madness, out August 28. Hear Travi$ Scott's snippet below.
