《Cartoon Theories》The Weeknd Song Theory
Advertisement
You may know The Weeknd from his hit songs The Hills and Starboy. I just recently began to fall in love with his music and already discovered there is some pretty shady stuff going on. The Weeknd made a deal with the Devil. Let me explain.
First up is the song "The Hills",
The Hills shows The Weeknd going to meet the devil after he survives a car crash. He literally ascends a flight of stairs to a red room. Doesn't get much more symbolic than that. And that was just their first meeting.
We see the devil character again in the video for Can't Feel My Face. The Weeknd is performing on stage and the crowd hates him, until the devil throws a lighter on stage and causes him to catch fire. This clearly symbolizes the sale of The Weeknd's soul for musical success, as anyone with eyes can tell.
The next video from this album is for Often. this video is about the luxury The Weeknd has experienced since becoming more famous. You know, thanks to the devil. The singer's all laid up with beautiful women, drugs and lots of alcohol. But most importantly, you can see the devil bringing him champagne. This symbolizes his role in The Weeknd's lux life.
So you would think that The Weeknd likes this new life of fortune and fame. But his next video, the one for Tell Your Friends, shows him seeing a burning bush. This is super heavy religious symbolism for The Weeknd finding God, just like Moses. Because obviously The Weeknd is on that level in prophetic power. Now that The Weeknd has seen God, he wants to leave his deal with the devil behind. He even kills Lucifer in the video.
So now, this takes us to The Weeknd's newest album, Starboy. Starboy symbolizes The Weeknd killing his old self that was helped by the devil. He is shown smashing his old music awards because he knows Satan helped him win them. The lyrics also say "Look what you've done." Referring to his past self (the one the present one killed), and "I'm a Motherfucking Starboy." Starboy meaning Morning Star

it's not all over.
Since The Weeknd tried to kill the devil, things aren't working out very well for him. He thinks he has or will lose all of his wealth as the devil seeks revenge. This brings us to the False Alarm video, where The Weeknd is trying to steal money. He dies in the video clutching a cross.
It is similar to the car crash shown in The Hills. This suggests history repeats itself and The Weeknd can't run from the devil.
the next video, Party Monster, shows The Weeknd in Hell after dying in the car crash. There's "fire, upside down crosses, cannibalism, and a lot of sinning" in the video, which definitely makes sense for hell, you know?
There's also a creepy interlude between False Alarm and Party Monster that would definitely be what the transition from Earth to Hell would sound like. sticks out in the Party Monster video is the heavy eye imagery that is also found in The Weeknd's photo shoots. The eye is a symbol for the Illuminati, which we all know is Satan's club for rich people.
There is some pretty strong proof. First, apparently the cover for Starboy has 666 on it.
There's also "morning star" references throughout his videos. "Morning star" refers to Lucifer for like multiple reasons. First, Lucifer means "morning star" in Latin. Also, Lucifer is said to have fallen to Earth like a shooting star as the sun was shining.
the morning star is in a painting in Starboy.
However, there are other references to the morning star. The Weeknd refers to himself as "Starboy" and named his album after this moniker. He also refers to a "Stargirl" - maybe a lover who also deals with the devil?
The entire song Ordinary Life is pretty fishy. The Weeknd literally says he "paid for the life that [he] chose" and "halos are given to ordinary lives, no, but this ain't ordinary life."
So, what do you think? Leave your thoughts on this theory in the comments. Thanks for reading. Don't forget to like!👍

Training writing by randomly creating characters stories without screwing up some full-fledged story that I may or may not write in the future. There is a main story here; however, as I'm still bad at writing, I decided to just put a small part of it here. Leaving the full story for another book. Also, please notice that every single chapter can and will be edited at any time I think I'm ready to enhance this book's quality.
