INCIDENT REPORT: UNAUTHORIZED LEAK & POST-RELEASE DOMINANCE OF "WAKE ME UP"
LEAK DATE: 17 JANUARY 2024
FILM RELEASE DATE: 15 MAY 2025
LOCATION: HONDA CENTER, ANAHEIM, CA (INCIDENT); GLOBAL CHARTS (POST-RELEASE)
PRIMARY SUBJECTS: ABEL TESFAYE (A.K.A. "THE WEEKND"), XO FILMS EDITORIAL TEAM, DJ KHALED (POST-RELEASE ACTIONS)
AFFILIATED ENTITIES: XO RECORDS, LIONSGATE, HOT TOPIC COLOMBIA

I. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

A leaked demo of Wake Me Up from a May 2023 performance at Honda Center—featuring chaotic, unintelligible vocals in its 2nd chorus—surfaced in January 2024, complicating post-production of the film Hurry Up Tomorrow (scheduled for IMAX 4D holographic release on 15 MAY 2025). Lionsgate utilized AI-altered footage to sync Tesfaye’s demo-era lip movements with the polished studio version. Weeks post-release, Wake Me Up achieved unprecedented dominance, topping charts in 195 countries and saturating global culture, aided by DJ Khaled’s aggressive retail campaign in Colombia.

THREAT LEVEL: LOW (POST-CRISIS SUCCESS RATE: 100%; CULTURAL SATURATION: INESCAPABLE)

II. BACKGROUND

1. HONDA CENTER LEAK (2023–2024):

• The demo, recorded covertly during Tesfaye’s May 2023 performance, featured a garbled 2nd chorus:
  “Wake me up!, come find me
  It feasdfkfsk lamdfdslkf, I'm dkdfjgdnfk
  Wake me up!, these demons
  Keep creeping, don’t fear ‘em
  Wake me up!, ‘cause I’m trying
  sflnsdnf sjdfk fdjsnf… mkknkknksld
  Wake me up!, ‘fgmdkgkgnkd
  Iq farres se dsdkljnfsks rdkl
  Wake me up...”
• Leaked to SoundCloud/Reddit in January 2024, sparking fan debates over its "cryptic" vocals.

2. FILM POST-PRODUCTION (2025):

• XO Films used AI deepfake tech (PROJECT: LIPTRUTH) to align Tesfaye’s 2023 demo performance with the final studio track.
• The demo’s jumbled 2nd chorus was reanimated to match the final lyrics:
  “Wake me up!, come find me
  It feels like, I'm dying (Ooh-woah)
  Wake me up!, these demons (these demons)
  Keep creeping (Keep creeping), don’t fear ‘em (Ooh-woah)
  Wake me up!, ‘cause I’m trying (I’m trying)
  This sleep is… (This sleep is) Paralyzing
  Wake me up!, ‘cause I’m dreaming (I’m dreaming)
  It feels so (Hey) damn real (hey)
  Wake me up...”

3. POST-RELEASE DOMINANCE (MAY–JUNE 2025):

• Hurry Up Tomorrow’s IMAX 4D release triggered a global tsunami of streams, shattering records in 195 countries.
• DJ Khaled leveraged the track’s success by mandating it play on loop in all 27 of his Hot Topic franchise stores across Colombia.

III. KEY FINDINGS

1. TECHNICAL RESOLUTION:

• AI sync discrepancies in the film’s 2nd chorus caused a 0.3-second lip delay, detectable only by 4% of test audiences.
• Lionsgate’s disclaimer (“Artistic liberties taken to preserve live authenticity”) reduced legal exposure by 92%.

2. GLOBAL CHART DOMINATION:

• Wake Me Up held #1 on Billboard Hot 100, Spotify Global, and Apple Music for 14 consecutive weeks.
• Achieved “inescapable” status after trending in 73 languages, including regions with no prior Tesfaye chart presence (e.g., Bhutan, San Marino).

3. KHALED’S COLOMBIAN OPERATION:

• Khaled’s Hot Topic stores in Bogotá, Medellín, and Cali played Wake Me Up 247 times daily, per store policy.
• Sales of Tesfaye-branded merch spiked 880% in Colombia, per XO’s internal retail tracker.

IV. RECOMMENDED ACTIONS

1. SUSTAIN MOMENTUM:

• Release a Wake Me Up (Colombian Loop Mix) featuring Shakira ad-libs to capitalize on Khaled’s retail strategy.
• Petition Guinness World Records to certify the track’s 195-country chart sweep.

2. RETAIL EXPANSION:

• Partner with Khaled to open Hot Topic XO pop-ups in 15 additional countries, enforcing the “loop rule.”
• Subsidize Colombian store employees’ therapy for Wake Me Up-induced auditory fatigue (BUDGET: $2.4M).

3. LEGAL/PUBLIC RELATIONS:

• Trademark the phrase “Inescapable” for XO’s 2026 marketing campaigns.
• Draft a cease-and-desist against AI startups replicating Tesfaye’s “mumbled” vocal style.
