"The Weekend" is a song recorded by American singer SZA for her debut studio album, Ctrl (2017). Written by SZA and its producer ThankGod4Cody, the song samples "Set the Mood (Prelude)" from the 2006 album FutureSex/LoveSounds, written by Justin Timberlake, Timbaland, and Danja, who also received writing credits for "The Weekend". Prior to its official release, the song debuted in some Billboard charts components and rose progressively based on digital sales and streaming numbers; this unexpected popularity prompted RCA Records to send it to US urban contemporary radio format on September 26, 2017, as the album's second radio single. The song reached number 29 on Billboard Hot 100, becoming SZA's first and highest chart position with a solo song and surpassing sales of her previous single "Love Galore". It also topped the Hot R&B Songs chart, making SZA the first woman since Rihanna—who dominated it for three weeks with "Needed Me" (2016)—to top that chart. "The Weekend" was certified double platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) on March 1, 2018.
"The Weekend" is a song characterized by a soft, slow-burning melody that runs throughout its four minutes and thirty-two seconds. Its sultry production draws from contemporary R&B and 1990s neo soul music genres. Built around a synth-line, the song is completed with finger-snaps, key thumps that resemble the sound of a ticking clock, hi-hats and a high-pitched vocal sample. Lyrically, "The Weekend" is about polyamory. SZA sings about sharing her romantic partner with other women; she finds herself in the perspective of a woman who only sees her partner at weekends while others have him during the week. Some online publications called the song's narrator a "side chick" but according to SZA, "The Weekend" is about sharing a man with two other women at the same time. She sings in the hook, "My man is my man is your man / Heard it's her man too". For her, this song is about feeling empowered in a situation in which the narrator's lover tries to play her.
