The comedian and actor is credited on the Canadian artist’s new record, which he announced earlier this week.
“I listened to Dawn FM with my good friend Abel @theweeknd last night,” Carrey tweeted.
“It was deep and elegant and it danced me around the room. I’m thrilled to play a part in his symphony.”
“Thank you for being a part of this. It’s kismet. Full circle,” The Weeknd, real name Abel Tesfaye, responded.
Dawn is scheduled for release on Friday 7 January.
Tyler the Creator, Lil Wayne, Quincy Jones and The Weeknd’s frequent collaborator Oneohtrix Point Never are also featured on the album.
The Weeknd’s previous album – 2020’s After Hours – included the record-breaking single “Blinding Lights”.
