In an interview, The Weeknd divulged why he likes to keep his identity anonymous. “I don’t know. Maybe there is a deeper issue with that, but I feel like with me it’s never been about the artist and the image of the artist. With House of Balloons, nobody knew what I looked like. And I felt like it was the most unbiased reaction you can get to the music because you couldn’t put a face to it. Especially R&B, which is a genre that is heavily influenced by how the artist looks,” says the artiste.

The Canadian rapper further disclosed why a lot of his albums have morbid endings. “It’s crazy, right? I think it’s me removing The Weeknd from Abel. I think a lot of people are like, “Oh, he’s suicidal.” It’s not that. I think it’s me removing The Weeknd from the world, but he still finds his way back. He keeps coming out. Blinding Lights is obviously not going to have him disappear anytime soon.”
