The Weeknd's career and the announcement of its subsequent end can perhaps be summed up in a re-telling of the story of Cain and Abel. But instead of two brothers bearing the brunt of murder and jealousy, this story involves one man and his alter ego. This is the story of Kin Kane and Abel Tesfaye.

Falling into his professional career by fobbing off the aspiring producer, Jeremy Rose, Tesfaye shot to fame through endorsements from fellow, Toronto-born, rapper Drake and newspaper outlets such as the New York Times.

Now holding accolades from Grammy's to Guinness World Records, The Weeknd has become one of the most popular musicians of this decade. So why has he decided to put it all to rest and how has the fate of The Weeknd been written by Kin Kane?

In this episode, I'll be putting these questions to bed, taking you through the links between this episode's and last episode's 'Kid Cudi' along the way. Who do you think the next artist could be and what will be their connection to The Weeknd?
