The 7-piece, animated collection is composed of four designs, including a single NFT featuring The Weeknd’s recent cover on Billboard Magazine, which first announced the news of his record-breaking achievement, and three digital trading cards creatively inspired by the iconic “Blinding Lights” music video. The digital trading cards will be released in three tiers of rarity, and each of the collection’s unique, culturally – significant collectibles is individually signed to allow fans the opportunity to own a defining moment in music history as never before, from one of today’s most influential artists.
The auction for the collection will begin on December 20th at 5PM ET and continue until December 23rd at 1PM ET, and bids will be placed in ETH.
“Through this collection, we’re excited to offer music fans a new, innovative format that allows them to engage further with our rankings and deepen their connection to an important milestone in music history,”
said Julian Holguin, President of Billboard.
“The Weeknd’s NFTs capture the excitement that ‘Blinding Lights’ inspires, and music fans and collectors alike will gravitate towards these NFTs and be proud to own them for years to come.”
The Weeknd has continued to push the boundaries of how to deliver art within culture. Earlier this fall, he joined Autograph’s Board of Directors to help shape the future of the NFT space, and his new assortment of collectibles will launch Autograph’s highly anticipated music vertical. The collectibles will be available for fans to view on Autograph.io., in addition to being set in an innovative auction format HERE on OpenSea.
“Having The Weeknd join our Board of Directors and launch our music vertical with such a groundbreaking cultural moment speaks to our shared vision of communicating culture’s most engaging stories and celebrating its most important moments as they happen through new digital formats,”
says Dillon Rosenblatt, co-founder and CEO of Autograph.
“A visionary in terms of music and art, we’re excited to leverage his creative power and expertise as we pioneer a new era of digital collecting together.”
