"Come Thru," an unreleased demo by The Weeknd from 2013, blends dark R&B with the raw energy of his early career. Recorded during the "Kiss Land" era but leaked in 2019, it captures that hazy, after-party vibe with moody production and candid lyrics. Exploring themes of fame, fleeting connections, and indulgence, the track features a minimalist, hypnotic beat and The Weeknd’s signature falsetto. Although the lyrics were repurposed for "I’m Good" on Lil Wayne’s "Dedication 5," and the instrumental later appeared on Drake’s "Come Thru," this demo remains a snapshot of The Weeknd’s unfiltered artistry at a pivotal moment in his evolution.
