The Weeknd has stirred excitement among fans with a cryptic social media post that appears to hint at a possible new collaboration with Ariana Grande. Taking to Instagram Stories, the singer shared a list of the four tracks he has previously worked on with Grande — Love Me Harder, Off the Table, Save Your Tears and Die For You.
Accompanying the list were five explosion emojis, which many interpreted as a playful signal that another joint project might be on the horizon.
The post quickly made its way across social media platforms, where fans began speculating about what the teaser might mean. Some suggested that the extra emoji hinted at a fifth collaboration, while others described the move as a subtle but deliberate announcement.
The enthusiasm stems from the duo’s proven track record of successful partnerships. Their musical journey together began in 2014 when The Weeknd appeared on Grande’s album My Everything. Their first collaboration, Love Me Harder, became a major hit and established their on-screen and on-stage chemistry.
Years later, they reunited for Off the Table, a deeply emotional track featured on Grande’s 2020 album Positions. The song further showcased their ability to blend pop and R&B influences seamlessly.

Their collaboration continued with the remix of Save Your Tears, which appeared on The Weeknd’s 2020 album After Hours. The track went on to top the Billboard Global 200 chart, reinforcing their status as one of contemporary music’s most successful duos.
Most recently, the two joined forces again in 2023 for the remix of Die For You, originally released as part of The Weeknd’s 2016 album Starboy.
In a past interview, Grande had revealed that she and The Weeknd once recorded several songs together that were ultimately shelved because they did not feel right for release at the time.
The recent social media tease has revived hopes that some of those unreleased tracks — or perhaps entirely new material — could soon see the light of day.
While there has been no official confirmation yet, the post has already reignited anticipation for what could be another chart-topping collaboration between the two artists.
