The Weeknd has fans on edge as rumors swirl about a potential new EP. Chatter on social media and forums has sparked speculation the XO singer will release a follow-up toMy Dear Melancholytitled We’re Alone Together on Friday (May 11).

Last month, The Weeknd changed his Instagram bio to “we’re alone together,” which prompted theories about it being the name of his next EP. The rumors increased when supposed cover art for We’re Alone Together surfaced online with the same image used in “The Hills” artist’s Instagram avatar.

A Weeknd superfan also noticed his manager Tony Sal liked a LA Leakers post, which shared the artwork and said the EP is reportedly dropping on Friday.

Although many of The Weeknd’s fans are already anticipating this unconfirmed project, some are still skeptical. The subreddit dedicated to the platinum-selling singer has plenty of doubters who believe the cover art is fake.
