The Weeknd Just Dropped a Remix Challenge on Hook

Our biggest remix challenge to date is officially live, and it features two tracks from global superstar The Weeknd – “Cry for Me” and “São Paulo.” Hook is the first and only app where fans can remix The Weeknd, and we are honored and excited to host this exclusive remix challenge!

Both songs are from The Weeknd’s latest multiplatinum album, Hurry Up Tomorrow. Whether you are drawn to the heartbreak of “Cry for Me” or to the moody groove of “São Paulo,” this is your chance to reimagine these songs your way. You can make them dark, dreamy, or completely experimental. Set the tone, flip the vibe, switch the genre, or change the tempo to show the world what your version of The Weeknd sounds like.

How to Enter:

  1. Open the Hook app and create a remix using “Cry for Me” or “São Paulo”
  2. Post your remix on Hook with the hashtags #theweekndchallenge and #madeonhook in the caption
  3. Share it on TikTok or Instagram using the same hashtags
  4. This is more than just a flex for your followers. Remixes posted to Hook (and shared to TikTok or Instagram) can earn you tickets to see a show on The Weeknd’s sold-out After Hours Til Dawn tour. Hook is giving away three pairs of tickets to remixes that stand out:

    • Most Viral – TikTok post with the most views
    • Editor’s Pick – Chosen by the Hook team
    • Most Played – Remix with the most unique plays on Hook
    • As always, everything you make on Hook is fully licensed and rights-cleared, so you can share your remixes, worry-free. The ethically trained AI does the heavy lifting. You bring the vision.

      The Weeknd Remix Challenge on Hook is open now through August 3rd, so there’s time to create something special. Or drop multiple entries if you’re feeling bold.
