5 Takeaways From the Weeknd's New Album Hurry Up Tomorrow
Briefly

The Weeknd's sixth studio album, Hurry Up Tomorrow, marks the conclusion of a trilogy in his career, reflecting on fame's pitfalls and his experiences on tour. Released after the commercially successful After Hours and a star-studded era, this 22-track album may also signify the end of the Weeknd persona, as Tesfaye revealed in a recent interview. He described the record as a transitional phase, hinting at a desire to move beyond his current image. The album carries a narrative of grief and finality, embodying themes of personal struggle and transformation.
"The album I'm working on now is probably my last hurrah as the Weeknd. I'll still make music, maybe as Abel, maybe as the Weeknd. But I still want to kill the Weeknd."
"Hurry Up Tomorrow reprises Tesfaye's penchant for hedonism through the lens of his life on the road. Here's what you need to know about the longest record of the Weeknd's career."
