As we all know by now, Drake’s transition from Champagne Papi to Dominican Papi kept the Latinternet glued to its collective screens some years ago. But now a new tiguere is in town, and he’s bringing unrelenting bachatero vibes (and some say, salsero vibes) to the Toronto Film Festival.

The Weeknd pulled up to the festival on Monday night sporting a new do, and a mustache straight from a Dyckman barber shop. And people on the internet took notice.

But aside from serving up Dominican tio looks, the real question that comes to mind is when are Romeo, Antony, and The Weeknd dropping the single?

All jokes aside, that would be one astounding collaboration.
