The Weeknd Closes a Chapter withHurry Up Tomorrow—Stream It Now
It’s the end of an era. The Weeknd, known offstage as Abel Tesfaye, has officially wrapped up his musical trilogy with the release of Hurry Up Tomorrow . Dropping on January 31 via XO and Republic Records, this album not only marks the final installment of a story that began with After Hours (2020) and continued with Dawn FM (2022), but it also symbolizes a farewell to "The Weeknd" persona as we know it.
The journey to this release wasn’t without obstacles. Originally set to drop on January 24, Hurry Up Tomorrow was delayed due to the devastating wildfires in Los Angeles. In response, Tesfaye not only postponed the album but also donated $1 million to relief efforts and canceled a grand stadium release show at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena.

Now, the album is finally here, and fans are already diving into its cinematic, emotionally charged soundscape. Featuring collaborations with Playboi Carti, Anitta, Lana Del Rey, Travis Scott, and Future, Hurry Up Tomorrow delivers a fusion of dark R&B, synth-heavy beats, and introspective storytelling. One of its lead singles, Timeless featuring Playboi Carti, already made waves by reaching No. 3 on the Billboard Hot 100.
But the music isn’t the only part of this final chapter. Alongside the album, The Weeknd is making his feature film debut in a psychological thriller of the same name. Hurry Up Tomorrow , directed by Trey Edward Shults and co-starring Jenna Ortega and Barry Keoghan, will hit theaters worldwide on May 16, with a score crafted by The Weeknd and frequent collaborator Oneohtrix Point Never.
For those who have followed his journey from House of Balloons in 2011 to this moment, this album feels like a full-circle moment. The closing track seamlessly transitions into High for This , the first song from his debut mixtape—a poetic farewell to The Weeknd moniker, signaling a new artistic direction for Abel Tesfaye.
So, whether you’ve been a fan since the beginning or are just tuning in now, Hurry Up Tomorrow is a must-listen. Stream it now and witness the end of an era—and the start of something new.
