    Released: April 10, 2018[7]

My Dear Melancholy is described as a return to the darker style of the Weeknd's earlier work, evident in Trilogy (2012) and Kiss Land (2013). The extended play was supported by the single, "Call Out My Name", which peaked at number four on the US Billboard Hot 100. It received generally favourable reviews and debuted at number one on the US Billboard 200.

Background and release edit

Prior to My Dear Melancholy, the Weeknd had a whole album written and done, "which wasn't melancholy at all because it was a different time in my life.", he told Time in 2018. However, he scrapped it because he moved past that part of his life.[8]

On March 3, 2018, American rapper Travis Scott teased a new project by the Weeknd on Twitter, referring to it as "scary", and comparing it to when he "first heard" his music.[9] Later that month, the Weeknd suggested that he was in the finishing stages of completing a new project, sharing multiple silent videos on Instagram of a recording studio, with the caption "mastering". This followed several months of in-studio pictures shared on the platform.[10][11]

On March 28, the Weeknd teased the release of a new project, posting a screenshot of a text-message conversation between creative director La Mar Taylor and himself, concerning whether or not they should "drop [a new project on] Friday".[12] The next day he announced the project to be released that night, sharing its cover art and title.[13] On February 22, he had previously shared an image of the EP's title written on a notepad.[14]

Following the EP's release, vertically-orientated music videos for "Call Out My Name" and "Try Me" were released exclusively through Spotify.[15][16]

During an interview with GQ in 2021, the Weeknd said of the EP, "I made it in like three weeks. I knew exactly what I wanted to say. I knew how I wanted it to sound—and that was it."[17]

Composition and lyrics edit

The EP has been described as "darker" than the Weeknd's previous studio releases Beauty Behind the Madness and Starboy, and has been described as a return to his earlier work though with more electronic music based production[4] with Israel Daramola from Spin describing it as him "returning to the darkened drug den sounds of his earlier work".[18] My Dear Melancholy is characterized as an alternative R&B,[2] R&B[4] and electropop[6] record with production credits from Skrillex and Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo from Daft Punk.[19] My Dear Melancholy's only feature is techno artist Gesaffelstein who produced the tracks "I Was Never There" and "Hurt You".[20]

Lyrically, My Dear Melancholy focuses on heartbreak and anger related to a breakup.[21][22] The lyrics focus around the Weeknd's past relationships, mainly his highly publicized romances with model Bella Hadid[23] and singer and actress Selena Gomez.[24] In an interview to Esquire in 2020, the Weeknd described the EP as a "cathartic piece of art".[25] The theme is a complete change from the Weeknd's past two projects which were pop-based and more mainstream.[26] The Weeknd sings in relation to Gomez's kidney transplant operation and her relationship with Justin Bieber with CNN's Lisa Respers France labelling Gomez as the Weeknd's "muse".[27] The Weeknd reworks Gomez's lyrics from the song "Same Old Love" on the song "Wasted Times" in a way that Billboard described as "tormenting".[28]

My Dear Melancholy was met with generally favourable reviews. At Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from professional publications, the album received an average score of 63, based on 16 reviews.[30] Aggregator AnyDecentMusic? gave it 5.7 out of 10, based on their assessment of the critical consensus.[29]

Alex Petridis of The Guardian stated that My Dear Melancholy "abandons the pick'n'mix and indeed hit-and-miss approach of previous album Starboy in favour of something more cohesive: uniformly downbeat and twilit, it flows really well", but criticized its lyrical content.[21] In a positive review, Ryan B. Patrick of Exclaim! commented that the project serves "as a soft reset of sorts, a musical palette cleanser that takes stock of what the Weeknd has accomplished thus far".[33] For NME, Jordan Bassett called the album "thrilling", praising its tight and concise nature and "notable moments of stylistic brilliance" evident in Gesaffelstein's contributions, however criticizing its lack of character, noting that the Weeknd's predictability has led to his "impact [becoming] increasingly scattershot".[34] Online publication HipHopDX commented that the EP "doesn't break any new ground, and — as he's done in the past — revisits elements of previous projects. However, without the bloated tracklist of Starboy, and any attempt to please an audience outside of his core, the lack of innovation doesn't seem take away from the concise, focused, conceptual nature of this well-produced R&B gem".[5]

In a mixed review for Pitchfork, Larry Fitzmaurice wrote that the project "finds him in limbo between the bleary-eyed vibe of his early mixtapes and the bulletproof pop stylings of his last two albums", praising the album's production and "Tesfaye's still-sharp ear for cool, contemporary sounds", but criticizing similarities to his earlier work – specifically between "Call Out My Name" and "Earned It", as well as "Hurt You" and "I Feel It Coming" – and concluding that "it's too early in this stage of Tesfaye's career to so obviously attempt to replicate past glories".[6] Israel Daramola of Spin criticized the album's lyrics as "mopey" and "whiny", and its production as "endlessly sludgy and murky", writing that the album "is incredibly self-involved and self-pitying, nothing but surface-level introspection that shows a lot of emotion but none of it in the service of anything but the singer's ego".[18]

the Weeknd had a whole album written and done which wasn t melancholy at all because it was a different time in my life he told Time in 2018 However he scrapped it because he moved past that part of his life 8 On March 3 2018 American rapper Travis Scott teased a new project by the Weeknd on Twitter referring to it as scary and comparing it to when he first heard his music 9 Later that month the Weeknd suggested that he was in the finishing stages of completing a new project sharing multiple silent videos on Instagram of a recording studio with the caption mastering This followed several months of in studio pictures shared on the platform 10 11 On March 28 the Weeknd teased the release of a new project posting a screenshot of a text message conversation between creative director La Mar Taylor and himself concerning whether or not they should drop a new project on Friday 12 The next day he announced the project to be released that night sharing its cover art and title 13 On February 22 he had previously shared an image of the EP s title written on a notepad 14 Following the EP s release vertically orientated music videos for Call Out My Name and Try Me were released exclusively through Spotify 15 16 During an interview with GQ in 2021 the Weeknd said of the EP I made it in like three weeks I knew exactly what I wanted to say I knew how I wanted it to sound and that was it 17 Composition and lyrics editThe EP has been described as darker than the Weeknd s previous studio releases Beauty Behind the Madness and Starboy and has been described as a return to his earlier work though with more electronic music based production 4 with Israel Daramola from Spin describing it as him returning to the darkened drug den sounds of his earlier work 18 My Dear Melancholy is characterized as an alternative R amp B 2 R amp B 4 and electropop 6 record with production credits from Skrillex and Guy Manuel de Homem Christo from Daft Punk 19 My Dear Melancholy s only feature is techno artist Gesaffelstein who produced the tracks I Was Never There and Hurt You 20 Lyrically My Dear Melancholy focuses on heartbreak and anger related to a breakup 21 22 The lyrics focus around the Weeknd s past relationships mainly his highly publicized romances with model Bella Hadid 23 and singer and actress Selena Gomez 24 In an interview to Esquire in 2020 the Weeknd described the EP as a cathartic piece of art 25 The theme is a complete change from the Weeknd s past two projects which were pop based and more mainstream 26 The Weeknd sings in relation to Gomez s kidney transplant operation and her relationship with Justin Bieber with CNN s Lisa Respers France labelling Gomez as the Weeknd s muse 27 The Weeknd reworks Gomez s lyrics from the song Same Old Love on the song Wasted Times in a way that Billboard described as tormenting 28 Critical reception editProfessional ratingsAggregate scoresSourceRatingAnyDecentMusic 5 7 10 29 Metacritic63 100 30 Review

reviews from professional publications the album received an average score of 63 based on 16 reviews 30 Aggregator AnyDecentMusic gave it 5 7 out of 10 based on their assessment of the critical consensus 29 Alex Petridis of The Guardian stated that My Dear Melancholy abandons the pick n mix and indeed hit and miss approach of previous album Starboy in favour of something more cohesive uniformly downbeat and twilit it flows really well but criticized its lyrical content 21 In a positive review Ryan B Patrick of Exclaim commented that the project serves as a soft reset of sorts a musical palette cleanser that takes stock of what the Weeknd has accomplished thus far 33 For NME Jordan Bassett called the album thrilling praising its tight and concise nature and notable moments of stylistic brilliance evident in Gesaffelstein s contributions however criticizing its lack of character noting that the Weeknd s predictability has led to his impact becoming increasingly scattershot 34 Online publication HipHopDX commented that the EP doesn t break any new ground and as he s done in the past revisits elements of previous projects However without the bloated tracklist of Starboy and any attempt to please an audience outside of his core the lack of innovation doesn t seem take away from the concise focused conceptual nature of this well produced R amp B gem 5 In a mixed review for Pitchfork Larry Fitzmaurice wrote that the project finds him in limbo between the bleary eyed vibe of his early mixtapes and the bulletproof pop stylings of his last two albums praising the album s production and Tesfaye s still sharp ear for cool contemporary sounds but criticizing similarities to his earlier work specifically between Call Out My Name and Earned It as well as Hurt You and I Feel It Coming and concluding that it s too early in this stage of Tesfaye s career to so obviously attempt to replicate past glories 6 Israel Daramola of Spin criticized the album s lyrics as mopey and whiny and its production as endlessly sludgy and murky writing that the album is incredibly self involved and self pitying nothing but surface level introspection that shows a lot of emotion but none of it in the service of anything but the singer s ego 18 Year end lists edit Select year end rankings of My Dear Melancholy Publication List Rank Ref ABC News 50 Best Albums of 2018 20 37 Complex
