"One Right Now" is a song by American singer Post Malone and Canadian singer the Weeknd.[1] It released on November 5, 2021, through Republic.[2][3]

Background

On November 2, 2021, both artists posted a 7-second snippet of the song titled "PM&TW-ORN-Update.5.nonhyped.w1.mp3" on their social media.[4] The post received over 150,000 likes in just an hour.[5] While it was initially unknown what the title of the song was going to be, Malone's manager Dre London revealed that the collaboration would be titled "One Right Now".[6] The song will mark the first time Tesfaye and Malone appeared on a song together.[2]

Composition

Based on the teaser, the sound was described as "a synthy midtempo club track".[1] It sees the two "harmonizing over an upbeat instrumental".[7] Writing for Billboard, Starr Bowenbank referred to the instrumental as a "poppy synth beat".[8] Alex Zidel of HotNewHipHop predicts that the song will "dominate the radio for the remainder of the year, and likely well into next".[9]
