Black Atlass releases his new song, "Pain And Pleasure."

The Weeknd's XO Record label has been building a bigger and stronger roster over the past two years. They've signed Belly, Nav and 88GLAM within that time and most recently, they introduced a new singer to their label. Black Atlass is a Montreal native that was previously inked with A-Trak's Fools Gold's record. Now, he comes through with his latest song, "Pain And Pleasure."

Black Atlass follows up on his song, "My Life" with his latest single, "Pain And Pleasure." The singer delivers a moody and dark R&B joint that fits well with the XO rosters general sound. The song was co-produced by London On Da Track, Rex Kudo and Black Atlass himself.

If you're unfamiliar with Black Atlass, check the song out and keep your eyes peeled for more music from the XO signee.

Quotable Lyrics
She love me through the pain and the pleasure
She could be the one if I let her
I could put her name on a necklace
We could just stay on the edge
