The Weeknd Live at Sofi Stadium
The Weeknd’s Blinding Lights remains Spotify’s most streamed song, with nearly five billion streams on a planet of eight billion people.
Live at SoFi Stadium was recorded during the first US leg of the four-time Grammy winner’s “After Hours Til Dawn” tour.
Nominated for two Emmys, the 90-minute special set a then record for the highest debut for a music special in HBO Max history. As Decider notes: “You don’t headline the Super Bowl halftime show if you’re not already a big cheese. Still, Live at Sofi Stadium feels like a victory lap.”
