    The Weeknd Drake

    11. The Weeknd gave up "almost half" of one of his old albums to Drake.

    Speaking to Rolling Stone, the Canadian singer said: "I gave up almost half of my album [to Drake]. It’s hard. I will always be thankful—if it wasn’t for the light he shined on me, who knows where I’d be. And everything happens for a reason. You never know what I would say if this success wasn’t in front of me now." Picture: Getty
