Here's how to actually write a Hit song, since the Title baited us all here.
1) Make it about universal Human Experiences. In the Case of The Weeknd, Love.
2) Use Simplistic Rhyme Schemes.
3) Match each line that rhymes down to the syllable as far as flow.
4) Make it bright and dancy, in the sound of whatever is Popular that year.
5) Repeat, and keep releasing singles and promoting yourself.
We can't all be as Talented as The Weeknd, but you can know the forumula. Artists who use it vary vastly, and it's applicable no matter what Year, or Decade you may be in.
May God bless your soul and night ❤!
Step 6 have a good voice 😂😂😂
This video is cool but that title is clickbait.
Thank you for saving me time
I watched got distracted and realize it ain’t answer the question
Lmao
@@i777aklmfao
its a good clickbait tho
Thank you so much I was able to
produce rock star by Smash Mouth with this video
I like to write songs but I can’t sing well. I seek inspiration from my childhood experiences that I think others can relate to, or just choose a title and write a song around the title.
Anybody with the same interests as me?
This video is so great
The Weeknd literally wrote an amazing album -My Dear Melancholy- In 3 weeks what an artist👏👏
6 song ep? Kid Cudi claims he just made his new album Insano in 3 weeks [21 songs] "plus 20 other songs that didn't make the cut"
@@djblur yeah but insano isnt as good, there is a difference
@@djblur yeah, cause writing bad music is easy

You don't need to do clickbait, man
Your videos are good
for real? AI generated emotionless voice over with crappy music in the background? That's your definition of a good video?
What did the title used to be?
I think i have hit songs in my head but i know nothing about producing and its very time consuming 😭 I hope one day i learn and start to make my music outside, i do believe myself
Imma tell you right now if you don’t learn how to mix your music yourself you will waste alot of money paying for others to do it and 9/10 they won’t mix it right… get a MacBook and study they engineering process
Hi, do you sing or rap?,.,,maybe we can collab, Im into production
how old are you? learning music production is long and hard.
If you want to be great you should start now. I suggest singing lessons too.
@@utilitydisk I dont have time for that, I now learning to make money + i still learn to have money on school because it takes a lot of money, once i have enough for the rest of my life i will start learning
In my case im 18. For many years I have been singing and rapping. Only for myself. This year I started with production. Im into beatmaking, mixing, Mastering, Chopping samples. The whole package you know. And honestly its hard. And even more because rn im in college in enginnerind and I dont have too much time for this.
Not one tip or lesson about how to write a song. At ALL.
This video applies to life lessons in general, not just writing songs. It uses The weekend's life as an example. Your welcome.
why with a cov1d mask?? :/
*Face Diaper
😂
Lazy animation
a mask means he doesn't have to animate the lips moving when he ralks.
Although it's 2025 and mouth animation software is cheap and easy to use now in days
Seriously people?? Im so fuckin sick of people being offended by a fucking mask 🙄 their are multiple wars happening more horrifying than we could even imagine but you're mad bc the animated character has a mask?? Is it so much of a distraction to see something so minor that it keeps you from soaking up any knowledge for the sake of what you say is a dream? I hope it made you stop watching bc i would NEVER want to hear ANYTHING from someone so fucking shallow. Watch the video or stfu 🙄
The title: how to write a hit song in 8 minutes
The video: it’s not about learning all the tricks to writing hit songs
What if some people have already seen my face
You just continue the journey and putting out good music...everyones journey is different, go with the flow.
I love the video. This video is very interesting. The weeknd is definitely a musical genius. Great job on the video
i had goosebumps for this video, your words really got me!!!! im pursuing my dream of succeeding in the music industry, my music isn’t in english im sorry :(, bro keep making videos like this you have an amazing way of saying the correct words
The Weeknd not leaving Toronto in 21 years reminds me of the time my bestfriend said to me «i don’t care about nationality i don’t really label myself with any nationality i’m just being me it doesn’t matter where i’m from or where in the world i am» and i said to him «you may say that now but we all have a place that we call home whether it is a house, country or a place somewhere and you might feel more homesick when you get older cause i’m sure old people feel more at peace at their house in their home country»
These are the times in the vid where The Weeknd actually speaks for himself.....
0:22 ; 0:42 ;
1:16 ; 1:45 ;
2:29 ;
3:15 ; 3:50 ;
4:07 ; 4:51 ;
6:00 ; 6:10 ; 6:54 ;
8:07 ; 8:22 ;
If you wanna skip over the other voice 😊
Just let abel speak and shut up with your halfsie theories on music writing it's amateur
for anyone who is watching and getting confused , this video has nothing to do with songwriting ! just saved u some time (:
its not clickbait, the mindset is what it takes
the clickbait on this is crazy
had to revisit this as an artist working on my 4th upcoming album JAPAN PART THREE, so many gems on how to navigate the music business and write the best songs that connect with audiences worldwide, thank you for this and shoutout to one of my fav artists and inspirations The Weeknd and his team since the beginning - with gratitude, LaynoProd
I don’t care what anyone say TheWeekend is 10000% better then Chris Brown
Ur right bro
facts, wish I could collab more with artists and produces who I share similar vibes with.
Imagine having a blindfold on and The weekend and Trevor Noah both speak and they ask you to identify who's voice belongs to who
damn this just a cash grab bro actually narrate the script
what if he doesnt have a mic? 😂
Its easy focus on promiscuity, overly sexualized, nihilistic behaviour and the maso industry will promote it to the hilt. Because they know urbans will buy it and promote it and defend it and emulate it because they have no culture only promiscuity & nihilism.
What a good video. Thank you!
Write songs bc u want it
Not bc u want a hit song
That’s shallow
Why would u write a song for all these npcs out there
I don’t know how I watched this whole video but I did, and some how enjoyed it kind of.
ice spice songwriting genius? :D loll
making a hit is easy if you're the weeknd
a ai man telling me more about abel
9 mins and 37 seconds**
Nice video. Thanks for making it.
If it Wasnt hard everybody would be a supasta
he inspired me to become an artist not a singer hes an artist
This video is really helpful and inspiring ty!
in a world of redundant lyrics and sunken listener expectations it might be possible...
oh sorry, my mistake... all of that is already real. 😅
#morequalityart 🙏
0:00-1:34 did it for me. You think those people cared he stayed in Toronto when he was a nobody or because he was famous on stage?
Forget 8 minutes...how about one word. Belly. Most of his songs are written by Belly, and XO artist.

his voice is so cute lmao
Wow...absolutely corny advice, fantasy talk and cliche success secrets. Success is a combo of talent, hard work, and just plain luck. Luck is a huge factor, which is always underestimated.
Legend
I thought this was going to be about The Weeknd spending 8 minutes talking about how to make a hit song…
The title means that The Weeknd will talk for 8 minutes on how to write a song🤷🏾♂️
Great until you brought up Ice Spice being a "songwriting Genius"
Video is cool in the end it ruin the vibe vy mentioning ice spice name
I feel like this video was made by ai
Clickbaite!
Love this video!!
These kind of shits pop up when ever is search random music theory shit about song writing or mixing... (im looking ar four on the sidebar from different accounts). Would be impossible but fasinatiting to know the statistic of people remotely making a monetary return and also watch these with wide eyes.
Also yall commenting clickbait below, the fuck did you click fo
Underrated content
don't clickbait bro. video is already good
I hate videos like this. The title is "The Weeknd Reveals ..." and he does no such thing! STOP wasting our time!!
I really thought this was Trevor Noah 😂
