The Weeknd’s new trailer for ‘Dawn FM’ album is driving everyone crazy

Jan 3 2022

The Weeknd has just released a new trailer for his upcoming album ‘Dawn FM’, and it’s got some very special features.

Sporting an aged-up look, the Weeknd has also included the likes of Tyler the Creator, Lil Wayne and even actor Jim Carrey for the new album to release on Friday 7th.

Promoting it as a ‘new sonic universe from the mind of The Weeknd’, we’re yet to see or hear what Abel Makkonen Tesfaye has in store for his fans with this new album.

The trailer already suggests more experiments when it comes to his look as the singer is known to get creative with how he looks for artistic purposes.

He even adopted Botox prosthetics last year in the music video for ‘Save Your Tears’. For this trailer, we got a time-lapse of Abel ageing throughout phases of his life, progressively getting a more sinister and playful look.

One of Malta’s most iconic clubs is temporarily closing down ahead of a BIG CHANGE

Jan 3 2022

If you’re talking about Malta’s clubbing scene and history, it’s very hard not to mention Havana. There are very few names in Maltese leisure which hold as much generational recognition as the hip-hop and R’n’B spot situated in the heart of Paceville, but something is about to change.

A post shared by Havana Club Malta (@havanaclubmalta)

From the neon-illuminated DJ stand to the iconic staircase and the token monkey figure overlooking the main bar, Havana has rocked an instantly recognisable look for years and (literally) everyone and their mother will have heard the name at least once in their life. Since its opening, the club’s 3 sections have attracted music lovers and revellers from across the globe.

However, Havana Main Room, Flashback and Havana Cuba area are about to change forever. Sources have told Malta Daily that the club is currently being dismantled and will remain temporarily closed until around April, with a recent social media post from the club’s official page bracing its followers for its step into the future. It will re-open with a brand new look and modern vibes in a few months’ time.

With a considerable amount of Maltese nightlife locations undergoing major changes and number of new spots already making a name for themselves in the local clubbing scene, we can’t wait to see what the new Havana will look like.
