A startling debut from a young Canadian RnB artist with huge potential.
The Weeknd is 21-year-old Toronto resident Abel Tesfaye. House of Balloons is his debut album, distributed freely online, and it’s quite unlike any other RnB collection to have emerged in 2011. Thanks to a Twitter leg-up from fellow Toronto artist Drake, Tesfaye has seen his underground tracks edge towards the mainstream, and earlier this month House of Balloons made the shortlist for the Polaris Prize, Canada’s equivalent of the Mercury. Come 19 September Tesfaye could be both $30,000 better off – that’s the prize money on offer – and in a position to genuinely vie for album-of-2011 top spots.
