"'One Right Now'" is a song by American rapper and singer Post Malone and Canadian singer-songwriter the Weeknd. It was released through Republic Records on November 5, 2021, as the lead single from Malone's fourth studio album, 'Twelve Carat Toothache' (2022). Malone and the Weeknd wrote the song with producers Louis Bell, Brian Lee, and Andrew Bolooki, alongside Billy Walsh. "One Right Now" is a synth-pop song that is set in the key of D major.

Background



On November 2, 2021, Post Malone and the Weeknd posted a 7-second snippet of the song titled "PM&TW-ORN-Update.5.nonhyped.w1.mp3" on their Instagram accounts. The post received over 150,000 likes in just an hour. 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". The song marks the first time the artists appeared on a song together.

Composition



Based on the teaser, the sound was described as "a synthy midtempo club track". It sees the two "harmonizing over an upbeat instrumental". Writing for 'Billboard', Starr Bowenbank referred to the instrumental as a "poppy synth beat". Alex Zidel of 'HotNewHipHop' predicted that the song will "dominate the radio for the remainder of the year, and likely well into next". For the radio, The Weeknd decided to replace his lyric censors from the official clean version with newly recorded lyrics, which are "You think it's so easy messin' with my feelings" and "You probably slap all my enemies". But Post Malone preferred to leave his lyric censors as they are. They both sang "That you told me that he fucked you on" twice, separate then together, and tying to Post Malone's record label, it was also left censored.

Music video



The music video for "One Right Now", directed by Tanu Muino, was released on November 15, 2021. In the video, Malone and the Weeknd engage in a shootout with each other's teams, and concludes with them shooting each other at the same time.
