The Weeknd revealed via Instagram the title of his highly anticipated new album Hurry Up Tomorrow in an ominous new teaser trailer. The four time GRAMMY Award winner’s latest effort will serve as the follow up to his 2022 release “Dawn FM.”
Hurry Up Tomorrow will dive into existential and self-referential themes, building on the visionary storytelling of its predecessors.
“Yesterday was fourteen years ago. We held our breath, falling into a shimmering sea in the After Hours of the night... I look in the mirror and feel both old and new, stuck in limbo and unable to move. I still haven’t faced myself. More songs could help, but what do I have left to say? Woe is me in my gilded cage, right? The very thing that once made me invincible failed me on the world stage. A new trauma surfaced, opening floodgates. A new path awaits. When today ends, I’ll discover who I am.”
The global music icon has yet to announce a release date for his latest project, but he has shared snippets of new music on Instagram over the summer. This could be his last full length album under the moniker “The Weeknd.” In an interview last year he suggested that he is ready to close “The Weeknd” chapter.
“I’m going through a cathartic path right now. It’s getting to a place and a time where I’m getting ready to close the Weeknd chapter. I’ll still make music, maybe as Abel, maybe as The Weeknd. But I still want to kill The Weeknd. And I will. Eventually. I’m definitely trying to shed that skin and be reborn. ”
In addition to a new album, The Weeknd will debut new music at his one night only concert on September 7th in Sao Paulo, Brazil. The Live Nation produced concert is currently sold out but will be live streamed across the globe on YouTube.
The Weeknd is also returning to Halloween Horror Nights at Universal Studios Hollywood next month with The Weeknd: Nightmare Trilogy. Check out the trailer below.
