The Weeknd’s album After Hours has dominated the scene ever since its March 2020 release, and yet somehow it was completely shunned by the Grammy Awards. Although he’s decided to boycott the Grammys, whatever the “Blinding Lights” hitmaker recently alluded on Twitter may not be able to be denied.

The Toronto native’s hit single “Blinding Lights” has been in the Billboard Hot 100’s top 10 for more than a year and recently became the longest-reigning No. 1 song in the chart’s history. Only three songs have ever spent more time on the Hot 100, and those three — Imagine Dragons‘ “Radioactive,” AWOLNATION‘s “Sail” and Jason Mraz‘s “I’m Yours” — never reached No. 1 like The Weeknd’s signature tune.
