It features guest appearances from [[Daft Punk]], [[Lana Del Rey]], [[Kendrick Lamar]], and [[Future (rapper)|Future]]. As the album's executive producers, the Weeknd and [[Doc McKinney]] enlisted a variety of producers such as [[Diplo]], [[Cashmere Cat]], [[Metro Boomin]], [[Frank Dukes]], and [[Labrinth]], among others. ''Starboy'' was supported by seven singles, including the US [[Billboard Hot 100|''Billboard'' Hot 100]] number-ones "[[Starboy (song)|Starboy]]" and "[[Die for You (song)|Die for You]]" (which topped the chart following a remix with [[Ariana Grande]]), and the top-five single "[[I Feel It Coming]]". It received generally favorable reviews from critics and debuted at number one on the US [[Billboard 200|''Billboard'' 200]] with 348,000 [[album-equivalent unit]]s (209,000 of which were pure sales), becoming the Weeknd's second consecutive number-one album. It also debuted at number one on ''[[Billboard (magazine)|Billboard]]''{{'}}s [[Canadian Albums Chart]]. ''Starboy'' won [[Grammy Award for Best Progressive R&B Album|Best Urban Contemporary Album]] at the [[60th Annual Grammy Awards]] in 2018, marking the Weeknd's second win in that category. As of April 2022, the album is certified [[RIAA certification|four-times platinum]] by the [[Recording Industry Association of America]] (RIAA). In 2023, the Weeknd released a deluxe version that contains three additional previously remixed releases: "Starboy" ([[Kygo]] remix), "Die For You" (with Ariana Grande), and "[[Reminder (song)|Reminder]]" (featuring [[ASAP Rocky]] and [[Young Thug]]). == Background == After the commercial success of his previous album ''[[Beauty Behind the Madness]]'' (2015), the Weeknd hinted at the release of his third studio album on March 12, 2016, with an [[Instagram]] post calling it the next "chapter" to his music.<ref>{{cite news|date=March 13, 2016|title=The Weeknd Hints at His Next Album Release|work=[[The Source]]|url=http://thesource.com/2016/03/13/the-weeknd-hints-at-his-next-album-release/|url-status=live|access-date=October 10, 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20161010103228/http://thesource.com/2016/03/13/the-weeknd-hints-at-his-next-album-release|archive-date=October 10, 2016}}</ref> On August 24, the executive vice president of [[Republic Records]] Wendy Goldstein confirmed during an interview with ''[[Billboard (magazine)|Billboard]]'' that the Weeknd would be collaborating with French [[Electronic music|electronic]] duo [[Daft Punk]].<ref>{{cite web|date=August 23, 2016|title=The Weeknd Is Reportedly Working with Daft Punk|url=http://www.complex.com/music/2016/08/the-weeknd-working-with-daft-punk|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160824143608/http://www.complex.com/music/2016/08/the-weeknd-working-with-daft-punk|archive-date=August 24, 2016|access-date=August 23, 2016|work=[[Complex (magazine)|Complex]]}}</ref> On September 7, the Weeknd revealed during an interview with ''[[VMan]]'' that the album was in production and was influenced by [[Prince (musician)|Prince]], [[the Smiths]], [[Talking Heads]] and [[Bad Brains]].<ref>{{cite web|last=Horner|first=Al|date=September 7, 2016|title=The Weeknd reveals his new album is inspired by The Smiths and David Cronenberg|url=http://www.factmag.com/2016/09/07/the-weeknd-new-album-the-smiths/|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20161012074514/http://www.factmag.com/2016/09/07/the-weeknd-new-album-the-smiths/|archive-date=October 12, 2016|access-date=October 10, 2016|work=[[Fact (UK magazine)|Fact]]}}</ref> He later revealed the album's overall theme and additional influences during his own interview with ''Billboard'': {{Blockquote|text=The vibe on ''Starboy'' comes from that [[Hip hop|hip-hop culture]] of [[Braggadocio (rap)|braggadocio]] from [[Wu-Tang Clan|Wu-Tang]] and [[50 Cent]], the kind of music I listened to as a kid.

But such imperfections are par for the course: He'd rather express everything he's feeling than put forth an airbrushed or idealized version of himself. In that sense, ''Starboy'' is one of the most confident releases of the year, one bold enough to reveal the cracks in The Weeknd's façade for the sake of resonant art".<ref name="AVClub"/> Michael Madden of ''[[Consequence (publication)|Consequence]]'' said, "It would help if more of the album were idiosyncratic that way, but as is, ''Starboy'' is still the sound of Tesfaye knowing he has what it takes to be a major figure in pop music for a very long time".<ref name="COS">{{cite web |url=http://consequenceofsound.net/2016/11/album-review-the-weeknd-starboy/ |title=The Weeknd – Starboy |work=[[Consequence (publication)|Consequence]] |date=November 29, 2016 |access-date=November 30, 2016 |last=Madden |first=Michael |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20161130162027/http://consequenceofsound.net/2016/11/album-review-the-weeknd-starboy/ |archive-date=November 30, 2016 }}</ref> [[Neil McCormick]] of ''[[The Daily Telegraph]]'' gave the album a positive review stating, "What is surprising is how seamless and integrated the sound is—a really luxurious, supple groove of sparkling electronica and sinuous, melodic vocals".<ref name="TDT"/> Nolan Feeney of ''[[Entertainment Weekly]]'' wrote: "While musicians writing about coping with newfound celebrity is one of pop's oldest tropes, the Weeknd avoids the usual clichés with observations and anecdotes that feel specific and genuine."<ref name="EW"/> Ryan B.

Who is the Weeknd? At this point, even the man behind the curtain might not know".<ref name="pitchfork"/> In a mixed review, [[AllMusic]]'s Andy Kellman stated: "The productions—the majority of which involve Doc McKinney and/or Cirkut, low-lighted by maneater dance-punk dud "False Alarm"—are roughly as variable in style as they are in quality. When pared down to its ten best songs, ''Starboy'' sounds like Tesfaye's most accomplished work."<ref name="AllMusic"/> [[Alexis Petridis]] of ''[[The Guardian]]'' said, "There are things worth hearing on ''Starboy''. It seems to capture an artist in a slightly awkward state of flux, unsure whether to cravenly embrace the kind of pop stardom that gets you on the shortlist for the Nickelodeon Kids' Choice awards or throw caution to the wind and do something more interesting artistically. ''Starboy'' hedges its bets and tries to do both. You can see why, but it makes for a curiously uneven album".<ref name="guardian"/> In another mixed review, ''[[Rolling Stone]]''{{'}}s Mosi Reeves stated: "Despite an overlong hour-plus runtime and surplus of filler, ''Starboy'' does have highlights. ... But for longtime fans that believe the Weeknd is one of the major R&B artists of the decade, ''Starboy'' will ultimately seem like a disappointment."<ref name="RS"/> ===Year-end lists=== {| class="wikitable sortable plainrowheaders" style="border:none; margin:0;" |+Select year-end rankings of ''Starboy'' !
