In 2010, The Weeknd began his professional career. When he shared an apartment with his friends, he would conduct business from that room.
Once, he uploaded films to the YouTube platform, which helped him gain recognition and popularity. Before establishing his record label in 2011 under the alias XO, he spent two years publishing his work on a variety of websites. He subsequently released three mixtapes in rapid succession, which contributed to his media attention.
In 2012, he signed a recording agreement with Republic Records. The compilation CD Trilogy comprised three of his mixtapes, which he released after his affiliation with Republic Records. Kiss Land, his debut studio album, paved the way for the darkwave movement.
Subsequently, he contributed significantly to numerous films, including the critically acclaimed Earned It, for which he was honored with Grammy Awards.
Beauty Behind the Madness, his subsequent studio album, achieved unprecedented success and peaked at number one on the US Billboard 200 chart.
Additionally, annual sales records were broken. It was imperative to compile the considerable number of accolades and plaudits that The Weeknd has garnered.
