The Weeknd has revealed that he's considering removing his Trilogy compilation from streaming platforms "now that ALL the samples are finally cleared."

Yesterday (13 November) on Twitter, The Weeknd gave instructions to fans on the correct way to listen to his Trilogy compilation, and revealed that he's contemplating getting rid of the compilation "now that ALL the samples are finally cleared."

He wrote, "If y’all wanna hear the trilogy how it’s supposed to be listened to … listen to House of Balloons, Thursday and Echoes of Silence individually. Not all samples are on trilogy and the mix isn’t the original mix. But shout out trilogy but fyi, for the new fans, it isn’t an album."

"I might get rid of the compilation just so there’s no more confusion, now that ALL the samples are finally cleared since December 17, 2021," he continued. "But I also know there are fans of the compilation so I might not get rid of it. But just want it to be clear for all the new fans and weirdly older fans …"
