The Weeknd takes on this memo for new album ‘Starboy.’

Due in stores this Friday (Nov. 25th), the LP is preceded by its title track, a slew of others, and now a mini-movie named ‘MANIA.’

It’s been ten years since fans of Fergie have had their hands on an official LP from the singer/songwriter and, for a while there, it was looking like it was going to be another ten years before they could boast ownership of ‘Double Dutchess’ – the official follow-up to her chart-topping debut solo project, ‘The Dutchess.’
