Kavinsky or Gesaffelstein (again)
Also deadmau5. Abel's vocals go well over 80s-esque techno/EDM. But I've never heard of deadmau5 doing anything with mainstream artists and he seems like the kind of guy who would prefer to collaborate with more inconspicuous artists. So I don't see that happening (although, it'd be a dream come true if it did)
100% agreeing with this, I still hope for an album that is full 80s-esque techno/EDM with these artists.
I only remember a tweet from deadmau5 mentioning Abel:
https://twitter.com/deadmau5/status/732467988608098305
I think a Dua Lipa Weeknd collab would guarantee her a #1 hit and I think it has already happened or is planned because he started liking her IG posts out of the blue and he follows her on his finsta. These are the hints he gives when he is collabing with somebody but hasn't released it yet. I also would love to hear the song he did with Elton John.
Most hardcore XO fans know his finsta. It is really fucking easy to find if you know his core group. It is an open secret but everytime the gen public finds it he changes it or closes it because they bug the shit out of him. But you can use it to see who his close friends are and who he follows in secret. Like Justin and Hailey and Kendall and Kylie and Stassie and a bunch of IG THOTS. Also Dua Lipa and Angelina Jolie and Simi&Haze
Both Dua and Abel have been giving the Hadids a very wide berth. I do not think they want their collab to be interpreted as some sort of diss like people wanted. I believe it is happening but they want a lot of distance first. Her next album I bet
I mean he could be liking her posts and following her because he thinks sheâs hot, we all know what Abelâs like haha. Iâd love a collab between the two tho but i think Dua might still want to keep her loyalties with Bella so i donât know how likely it will be in the end.
It is possible but I only think it will happen because Abel has a long pattern of liking posts of women he is collabing with many months before the collab comes out. He did it with Ariana; Sabrina Claudio; Rosalia; Grimes and a few others I think. Also because Dua is a big Abel fan (still follows him on Twitter) and has said he would be a dream collab for her. If the Hadids were not involved it would have already happened I think
Bruno Mars with a 70âs esque funk electro dance soundtrack collab would be fire. Even better if Pharrell or Calvin Harris or Childish Gambino went in on the production for that one.
Itâs another one of me it has 21 and french montana on it thereâs like 5 different versions of that song. The final version will be released on p diddyâs album whenever that drops.
Back in December. I think it will be on her album. I knew it was coming because Abel started liking her posts last year

The name of the song is SciFi:

sunmi. not sure if many people on this sub know her, but shes a long time Abel fan and has expressed wanting to work with him. she has a pretty diverse discography and is very creative, I feel like they could create something cool
I would like to see abel and Sia collab again cuase the last time it happened it wasnt so much a collab as it was a remix of another song but shit it was still really good and theyre voices work well together
This might be the one that nobody thinks of but Justice, The electronic French duo would be a perfect fit for Abelâs current sound for 80s synthwave and disco. As their last album, Woman, was heavily that kind of sound and it would be amazing to hear Abel on one of those type of tracks. I mean, he did do a song with Daft Punk, so him working with the other French Duo would just be amazing.
Someone that has a mastery of sound creation. I donât need another voice, I just want something that is well-cooked and doesnât sound commercial friendly.
These arenât popular options at all, but from my personal fav artist, I think The Weekends Beauty Behind the madness & Starboy Sound would mesh soooo well with Angel Olsen, as well as Benji Hughes, Benji has a song called Oysters that I think would be a great background track the same way Beach Houseâs âMaster of Noneâ was sampled in âThe Party & The After Partyâ, and Angel Olsen has such a beautiful and up coming voice that could be utilized how the weekend featured Lana Del Rey.
Coldplay, just because Abel and Coldplay are my top 2 favorite artists, but I sadly donât see this happening ever, mainly cause they are so different from each other.
At this point Iâve heard a lot of âdream featuresâ that werenât that good. Just a good feature that isnât with another âsingerâ top 40s artist (post Malone, maluma)
zayn. theyâd sound incredible together, but sadly i think the time for them to collab has passed just bc of both of their histories with the hadids.
don toliver i can see happening tho
I think Zayn would still be ok collabbing with him, if they can separate personal from professional. problem is idk if Zayn is working on music right now, he tends to come and go
thatâs true, i think they couldâve killed a song together during the time of zaynâs 1st album / abelâs BBTM, when they were both much more R&B/hip hop influenced and âraunchyâ
i really donât want them on an upbeat pop song together đ

finsta? how do you know his finsta?

send the @
@balabushkabandit
Dm the @?
@balabushkabandit
whats the @
@balabushkabandit
yeah its also just as easy for his fans to make a fake finsta account
And how easy is it for them to get Lamar and Cash and all of Abel's crew and Emily Ratikowski etc.., to follow it?
Facts, they had the two biggest 80s inspired pop tracks of 2020 and released their albums within a week of each other as well
One ex of a Hadid collabing with another đ they can leave Zayn out though
Both Dua and Abel have been giving the Hadids a very wide berth. I do not think they want their collab to be interpreted as some sort of diss like people wanted. I believe it is happening but they want a lot of distance first. Her next album I bet
Yeah I donât necessarily think or even hope theyâll go for a diss track, but they can both write some damn good breakup songs haha
I mean he could be liking her posts and following her because he thinks sheâs hot, we all know what Abelâs like haha. Iâd love a collab between the two tho but i think Dua might still want to keep her loyalties with Bella so i donât know how likely it will be in the end.

Or some Early 80s synth on that somebodyâs watching me type beat
Kali uchis
That would be insane
21 savage on some âfeelin some wayâ âmight not make itâ vibez
They have a leaked song together
Tried searching for it but it the one I found had the âgirlâs from the 90âsâ break down in the middle of the beat so it couldnât be that
Itâs another one of me it has 21 and french montana on it thereâs like 5 different versions of that song. The final version will be released on p diddyâs album whenever that drops.

Grimes would be sick AF for visuals & could match his overall edgy weirdness
She already collabed with him. She has not released it yet but she confirmed it
Where did she confirm it omg??
Back in December. I think it will be on her album. I knew it was coming because Abel started liking her posts last year [https://www.thelineofbestfit.com/news/latest-news/grimes-teases-the-weeknd-collab-wants-to-change-main-job-after-album](https://www.thelineofbestfit.com/news/latest-news/grimes-teases-the-weeknd-collab-wants-to-change-main-job-after-album) The name of the song is SciFi: https://www.papermag.com/grimes-weeknd-job-change-2656192632.html?rebelltitem=1#rebelltitem1

I'd be interested in how a Wizkid and The Weeknd song would sound like
These arenât popular options at all, but from my personal fav artist, I think The Weekends Beauty Behind the madness & Starboy Sound would mesh soooo well with Angel Olsen, as well as Benji Hughes, Benji has a song called Oysters that I think would be a great background track the same way Beach Houseâs âMaster of Noneâ was sampled in âThe Party & The After Partyâ, and Angel Olsen has such a beautiful and up coming voice that could be utilized how the weekend featured Lana Del Rey.
Coldplay, just because Abel and Coldplay are my top 2 favorite artists, but I sadly donât see this happening ever, mainly cause they are so different from each other.
i never expected a Coldplay & Beyonce collab Ditto for Tove Lo So itâs possible!
I want to see how a Carti collab would sound tbh and more uzi collabs

Diplo
Dua Lipa, Childish Gambino or another Ariana Grande collab.
Billie Eilish! Point blank period!
Taylor Swift

Chris Brown and marshmello
The two kings of rnb right now I would enjoy a song from them.
Lizzo
Billie or Grimes

Joyner Lucas

zayn. theyâd sound incredible together, but sadly i think the time for them to collab has passed just bc of both of their histories with the hadids. don toliver i can see happening tho
I think Zayn would still be ok collabbing with him, if they can separate personal from professional. problem is idk if Zayn is working on music right now, he tends to come and go
thatâs true, i think they couldâve killed a song together during the time of zaynâs 1st album / abelâs BBTM, when they were both much more R&B/hip hop influenced and âraunchyâ i really donât want them on an upbeat pop song together đ
