In late 2010, Tesfaye anonymously uploaded several songs to YouTube under the name "The Weeknd". He released three nine-track mixtapes throughout 2011: House of Balloons, Thursday, and Echoes of Silence, which were critically acclaimed. The following year, he released a compilation album, Trilogy, consisting of remastered versions of the mixtape material and three additional songs. It was released under Republic Records and his own label XO. In 2013, he released his debut studio album Kiss Land, which was supported by the singles "Kiss Land", and "Live For". 

The Weeknd has become a household name and Often is his latest offering Produced by Ben Billions and Abel himself. "Often" features the signature elements that makes The Weeknd so exclusive, the low, sultry, flirtatious vocals paired with dirty yet sexy and honest lyrics weaved with R&B vibes and a tinge of an electronic drive .
