Nobody has the slightest idea what it’s going to be like, but the news is already having social media buzzing: musicians The Weeknd, Madonna and Playboi Carti have chosen to combine their talents for a new song called Popular.
This new collaboration can be heard this Friday.
The piece will be included in the original soundtrack of the new series The Idolairing on HBO starting June 4.
Lili-Rose Depp, Kim Jennie, The Weeknd and Troye Sivan co-star in this series created by Sam Levingson (to whom we owe Euphoria) and presented out of competition at the last Cannes Film Festival. The reception was mixed to say the least: The Idol is already breaking the record title for lowest approval rating on US review site Rotten Tomatoes.
As of this writing, the series’ approval rating is 25%.
