On “Die For You” The Weeknd croons about the conflicting feelings and pain that comes with letting go of someone he still has intense feelings for.
Many fans speculate the song was written about Abel’s then ex-girlfriend, supermodel Bella Hadid following rumors, that the two ended their relationship close to Starboy’s official release due to their conflicting work schedules. Additionally, Abel admitted to Zane Lowe in an interview that the song was finished a mere week before the album’s release, raising more suspicions that he’d written the song about a recent split.
On 11/25/2021, the fifth anniversary of Starboy, a music video was at last released for the track.
In February 2023, The Weeknd released a remix of the track featuring Ariana Grande, their first collaboration since their hit remix of Abel’s track Save Your Tears.
