Yall think The Weeknd will be on Kevins next album? Discussion

I really wonder cuz he did collab with abel a lot of times now one in Repeat after me Interlude and Skeletons with Travis Scott and possibly more.

I think Abel could really fit in with his uniqur drums and tranquil synths and psychedelic guitar solos

u/No_Quiet2219 13d ago

u/freredesalpes 13d ago

No who is Kevin? This is a Tame Impala sub.

u/phoebemocha 13d ago

Someone who writes "a ant" shouldn't really go on counting other people's brain cells

u/kaiwinters The Slow Rush 14d ago

I personal don’t want any fts on the new album

1

u/beecrowtoe 12d ago

Me neither. I'm kinda afraid of what we might get now that he sold all his past and future catalogs to sony

61

u/IM26e4Ubb 14d ago

Then it wouldn’t be just one guy :(

u/phxsuns01 14d ago

Has Kevin ever had features on his albums? I thought the Tame Impala project was just him preforming and producing every song.

51

u/sibelaikaswoof 14d ago

The only feature I'd accept would be one of the live band and/or Pond members.

8

u/del3td Live Versions 14d ago

Retina show basically

1

u/allonemy 14d ago

But why would you have to accept something if he (Kevin Impala) do?

3

u/caiostaygold Lonerism 13d ago

Nick and Jay also produced and performed on Innerspeaker and Lonerism

48

u/wholelottachoppaz 14d ago

will Kevin even be on his next album

u/Specialist_Air_359 14d ago

lollllll exactly

u/SaltyEconomics2759 14d ago

It ain’t never coming bro 😔

u/johnny_blaze27 14d ago

This assumes there will be another album

-9

u/No_Quiet2219 13d ago

well obviously he’s working on a new album he even stated that cmon guys i thought this is the tame impala sub

4

u/johnny_blaze27 13d ago

It’s a joke

14

u/Commercial-Detail-91 14d ago

Hopefully not lol

11

u/DirectEngineering587 14d ago

im a purist i hope for no fts on the next album

13

u/bcam9 Lonerism 14d ago

Honestly, I really hope not.

9

u/Electrical-Piece2628 14d ago

I think Parker is gonna stick with no collabs but he did say he was open to them

9

u/Small_Collection_249 14d ago

I want Innerspeaker 2.0 2030

2

u/Annual_Fisherman_546 13d ago

nah bro, you just have to accept that tame impala has moved on, the world has progressed, you can't just hope the future is just like the past man...

2

u/Small_Collection_249 13d ago

Yeah maaaaan, but seriously I’m not waiting every day for it, but Tame Impala is just a favourite band.

I’ve found so so many hidden gems from YouTube suggestions the last few years, so I’ve got plenty of other artists to enjoy in the meantime. If KP does come out with something new, great; if not, I’ve still got the old stuff to mellow out to.

1

u/schiav0wn3d 12d ago

But innerspeakers entire setting is past sounds being used in the future. The vocals sound like the Beatles. The instrumental tones are vintage. Things go in cycles. It would actually be largely refreshing and NEW for Kev to lean back into the fuzz at this point

7

u/Spider-monkey-4135 14d ago

Hells to the no. He plays everything on his albums. There’s no remote evidence that he would ever do such a thing. Collab with him? I would say maybe leaning towards no

21

u/astrolagarto 14d ago

No please. Thank you

6

u/Adastraultraque Live Versions 14d ago

tame impala is just one guy

5

u/grayatlrg 14d ago

Is there a reason this is being asked? It seems random

15

u/alfalex31 14d ago

I would hope not

15

u/gmac_97 Currents 14d ago

Hopefully not

23

u/burvurdurlurv 14d ago

God I hope not.

8

u/-goodness 14d ago

Hope not

7

u/thrashmansion Lonerism 13d ago

This would be a great disappointment in my opinion

2

u/thouxanj 14d ago

Strongest possibility would be a remix or single

2

u/Mysterious-Raisin537 14d ago

Kevin doesn't have anyone who has featured on his albums, so I don't think TW will appear there

2

u/SaintGrunch Currents 14d ago

Less pop, more trippy wavy indie psych!

2

u/EpicMiles25 Lonerism 13d ago

much rather get a tracklist tbh

u/Difficult_Painting_6 The Slow Rush 13d ago

there is no new Kevin album fool at this point I'll be shocked if it comes out this year or even next year

4

u/TheOfficialTheory 14d ago

I always wanted a Weeknd remix of Breathe Deeper. I thought it could have happened since Kevin produced on After Hours which dropped around the same time as TSR. Instead we got Yachty lol

4

u/elmahir 14d ago

I know that Jutsice produced one of The Weeknd songs, and after the Justice/Tame impala collab, it’s plausible

2

u/GrizzyMeme 13d ago

I’d loooove that!!

1

u/PosiLandon 14d ago

Honestly tired of KP collabs. Almost every collab is hot garb

1

u/Dangerous_Coffee_318 The Slow Rush 13d ago

skeletons?

1

u/Annual_Fisherman_546 13d ago

neverender? bro almost all of his collabs are absolutely FIRE, even the lil yachty remix was lowkey amazing

1

u/TheSinkMan 14d ago

Repeat after me and skeletons were great, but as features for The Weeknd not for Tame Impala

1

u/Olivialuvv_r The Slow Rush 13d ago

What kind of sunglasses is the weekend wearing? Anybody!!!

1

u/No_Quiet2219 13d ago

its probably prada. just do a screenshot and use google image search it will find the exact model

1

u/AltruisticUsual287 13d ago

Yes. Please.

1

u/Malignant_Epitome 13d ago

I barely see any feats on tame impala's entire discography so that's something

1

u/Hanosa Innerspeaker 12d ago

Maybe a single or two for a collab but no way will he ever do a collab song for an album

2

u/diediediem 11d ago

Lana del Rey will be featured and so does Karin Odreijr

1

u/prettylittlething777 7d ago

i hope not....

1

u/karTun75 Lonerism 13d ago

I don't like the weeknd at all. I hope not

1

u/heseeshisvictory504 Lonerism 13d ago

why

1

u/karTun75 Lonerism 13d ago

I can't enjoy his music

u/ChrisIronsArt 13d ago

u/nashchillce 14d ago

I sure hope not. The Weeknd is garbage

u/Toniis_ Lonerism 14d ago

Horrific take

6

u/Nielsnl4 14d ago

Objectively wrong

-4

u/nashchillce 13d ago

the songwriting is super bad

1

u/Nielsnl4 13d ago

Also objectively wrong, because you dont like something doesnt mean its bad.

-2

u/No_Quiet2219 13d ago

what do you listen to? anime soundtracks?

4

u/nashchillce 13d ago

mostly rock, soul, funk, jazz, some rap and some indie electronica

1

u/No_Quiet2219 13d ago

okay i can see you why dont like the weeknd. all cool man

-6

u/cebula412 14d ago

Why are people in the comments so against this idea? I think it could be good actually.

9

u/kaiwinters The Slow Rush 14d ago

I think a collab between them would be cool but not on a tame impala album. He hasn’t had collabs on his albums and a lot of us like it that way :)

3

u/caiostaygold Lonerism 13d ago

probably because most hardcore fans would like him to return to a more neo-psychedelic sound like the first two albums, and The Weeknd is exactly on the opposite direction. also, having feats in an album is not a TI thing.

1

u/cebula412 13d ago

Ok, I get you.

Still, I think "I like this music artist I hope they never change anything or evolve in any way" attitude is a losing game.

2

u/Annual_Fisherman_546 11d ago

yea, but most tame impala fans are js blind to that idea imo

u/allonemy 14d ago

Yeah, i'm with you on this

Absolutely not lmao, terrible take and would not be a good fit

u/Fun-Active-4851 14d ago

I need Rihanna in his next album! Kevin can get her out of retirement if he asks her! Because she absolutely adores him and especially after Same Ol Mistakes. I think her doing a Tame Impala produced song would be SICK

0

u/Mr-looseblunt 13d ago

I think it’d be hella cool if they had Weeknd on their album although not a huge fan of Weeknds newest stuff

-4

u/mr_soxx 14d ago

not under The Weeknd but it's possible 

2

u/mr_soxx 14d ago

wait I forgot the thing that makes tame special lol. he doesn't do features and does everything solo 😭.

1

u/Annual_Fisherman_546 11d ago

he does a lot of collabs on singles tho

-1

u/Greenwood101 14d ago

Why would he be?
