The Weeknd’s latest single “Timeless,” featuring Playboi Carti, lives up to its name, blending their unique styles to create a track that feels both modern and eternal. From the moment the song begins with The Weeknd’s signature smooth vocals, it’s clear this track is about more than just braggadocio—it’s a declaration of their status in the music world.

Playboi Carti kicks off the first verse with swagger, rapping about his rise from humble beginnings: “Ever since I was a jit, knew I was the shit.” His verses are a blend of luxury and street life, referencing designer brands, fast cars, and hard-earned success. The juxtaposition of his gritty, rapid-fire delivery with The Weeknd’s more melodic tone gives the track an edge, making it both hypnotic and raw.

The chorus, “Ever since I was a kid, I been legit… It don’t matter what they say, I’m timeless,” serves as the anthem of the song. It reflects both artists’ journey from obscurity to fame, showing they’re here to stay, no matter what critics say.

“Timeless” stands out not just for its lyrical content but for the synergy between The Weeknd and Playboi Carti. Their collaboration creates a confident, rebellious energy, cementing their place as artists who transcend trends—proving, as the title suggests, they are truly timeless.
