As if scoring serious thumbs up for previous releases ‘Family,’ ‘Lesser Man,’ ‘Take Me Back,’ and the global R&B smash hit ‘Popular‘ (featuring Queen of Pop Madonna and Playboi Carti) wasn’t enough, the Canadian hitmaker (born Abel Tesfaye) is hoping for more of the same in response to the last three songs lifted from the show – ‘Like a God,’ ‘False Idols,’ and ‘Dollhouse.’

While ‘God’ and ‘Idols’ (featuring Suzanna Son and Rap star Lil Baby) were produced with Mike Dean, ‘Dollhouse’ features Tesfaye’s ‘Idol’ co-star Lily-Rose Depp.
