SZA's confessional slow jam "The Weekend" might not seem like an obvious single, but its steadily climbing the charts. The record hit its peak at No. 48 on the Hot 100 last week, and has been receiving the remix treatment from fellow R&B singers. The latest take on the track comes from dvsn, who debuted a "response" track on OVO Sound Radio Saturday. "I wish me and her hadn't already met," sings Daniel Daley on his second verse, playing into the love triangle narrative of the original. "When she leaves you come."

Later, he comes to the realization that his infidelity may have come back around on him, closing with "Beefing every Friday / When I think about it / She might have somebody on the weekends."

dvsn also shared a remix of "Don't Choose," a track from their new album Morning After, on OVO Sound Radio. Fellow OVO Sound signee Roy Woods makes a guest appearance on track. You can listen to it here.

Morning After is dvsn's sophomore album and follow-up to 2016's Sept. 5th. The featureless project can be streamed in its entirety here.

Earlier this summer, it was revealed that Solange would direct the official video for SZA's "The Weekend." "I love her," SZA told USA Today of Solange, who she met a year ago and has been meaning to work with ever since. "I think the universe is just bringing us closer to each other. That's my homegirl." While she did not share details of the concept or release date, SZA promised "10 different locations and looks" for the upcoming video. Seeing that Solange and SZA have each given us some of the best music videos of the last two years in inventive clips like "Cranes In The Sky" and "Supermodel," expectations should be high.

Quotable Lyrics:
Said I'd leave
I wasn't ready yet
I wish me and her hadn't already met
I'm trynna get my mind clear but
Why you standing naked in the mirror for?
You got a body to make anybody forget
