The Weeknd literally wrote an amazing album -My Dear Melancholy- In 3 weeks what an artist👏👏

Here's how to actually write a Hit song, since the Title baited us all here.
1) Make it about universal Human Experiences. In the Case of The Weeknd, Love.
2) Use Simplistic Rhyme Schemes.
3) Match each line that rhymes down to the syllable as far as flow.
4) Make it bright and dancy, in the sound of whatever is Popular that year.
5) Repeat, and keep releasing singles and promoting yourself.

We can't all be as Talented as The Weeknd, but you can know the forumula. Artists who use it vary vastly, and it's applicable no matter what Year, or Decade you may be in.

I think i have hit songs in my head but i know nothing about producing and its very time consuming 😭 I hope one day i learn and start to make my music outside, i do believe myself

[LaynoProd]

had to revisit this as an artist working on my 4th upcoming album JAPAN PART THREE, so many gems on how to navigate the music business and write the best songs that connect with audiences worldwide, thank you for this and shoutout to one of my fav artists and inspirations The Weeknd and his team since the beginning - with gratitude, LaynoProd

The Weeknd not leaving Toronto in 21 years reminds me of the time my bestfriend said to me «i don’t care about nationality i don’t really label myself with any nationality i’m just being me it doesn’t matter where i’m from or where in the world i am» and i said to him «you may say that now but we all have a place that we call home whether it is a house, country or a place somewhere and you might feel more homesick when you get older cause i’m sure old people feel more at peace at their house in their home country»

This video applies to life lessons in general, not just writing songs. It uses The weekend's life as an example. Your welcome.
