Earlier in the month, Norwegian producer Cashmere Cat took to Instagram to tease an upcoming collaboration with pop vocalist The Weeknd, sharing an image of the two artists hitting the studio. Fans were understandably excited by the prospect of a mutual single featuring both talents, and now it appears we may have our first taste of their work together.
The Weeknd posted a preview on social media of an upcoming song that some have speculated is the Cashmere Cat produced single. The teaser clip features a blank video and a cat emoji as its only clue, with a short sample featuring twisting falsetto vocals juxtaposed over a deep bassline.
Coinciding with The Weeknd’s teaser post, Cashmere Cat has taken to Twitter to spill some details about his upcoming album Wild Love, revealing that the title track will be released as the first single on Friday, August 26. In the Tweets, he posted another image of himself and The Weeknd in the studio, with the caption alluding to the title of the album and first single.
