Earned It was released by The Weeknd in 2014 and featured on the soundtrack to Fifty Shades of Grey, where its slow, sensual R&B sound became closely linked to romance on screen. Years later, the track found a second life on TikTok as creators repurposed its most recognisable vocal moments for rizz edits, a format built around charisma, confidence and flirtation. Because the melody is instantly familiar and the mood is unmistakably smooth, the clip works as shorthand for charm in short-form video, keeping it in regular use long after its original chart run.
About this sound
A short clip of The Weeknd's Earned It used in rizz edits, pairing the smooth R&B vocal with confident, flirtatious moments in TikTok videos and reels.
This clip lifts a smooth, sultry passage from The Weeknd's Earned It, built around his breathy falsetto, slow R&B groove and atmospheric production. The vocal feels intimate and confident, with soft synths and a restrained beat that make the moment sound seductive rather than loud or dramatic. In rizz edits, that mood does most of the work: a glance, a slow walk or a confident reveal suddenly feels charming and self-assured. Listeners recognise the song instantly, so the sound adds romance, swagger and a touch of humour without needing any dialogue or explanation.
