The Weeknd’s New Album Is Out Tomorrow: Here’s Everything We Know

Abel Tesfaye, better known by his stage name The Weeknd, took the internet by storm with smash hits like Starboy and Pray For Me. Now, the evergreen artist is back and fans can’t keep calm! The evergreen artist released a video teaser that hinted at his upcoming project, Hurry Up Tomorrow.

The album, which does not yet have a release date, has its name dramatically announced in bold red letters. After Tesfaye announced the end of his After Hours era with Take My Breath , he unveiled Dawn FM just days before its release.

Since its release, Swedish House Mafia has remixed Sacrifice and collaborated with the singer on Moth to a Flame. It has also collaborated on tracks with FKA Twigs, Post Malone and Rosalía, and appeared on a posthumous release by Aaliyah.

The Weeknd has been out of the spotlight since his After Hours Til Dawn tour and his role on The Idol last summer. Fans have been super excited for his upcoming music, with some even taking to Instagram to say that this might be the best album ever! This new album will feature remixes of new and older material that the artist has created over the years.

Before the album’s name was announced, The Weeknd posted a one-minute clip reminiscing about his previous work, including the red suit and sunglasses from Blinding Lights, and other songs from his 2020 album After Hours. The video also featured the old-man imagery from Dawn FM and the coiffed characters from his After Hours Til Dawn tour.

The video ended with a head that symbolized the theme of death-salvation-rebirth (he is known for these kinds of dark themes).

The Weeknd has made an impressive name for himself in pop culture over the years. With his hit albums Blinding Lights and Starboy released in the pre-COVID era (2017-2020) and even earlier, his songs have become a staple for audiences, especially Gen Z and millennials. (Yes, young boys and girls, we hear you; we know you love him!)

From mobile phone ringtones to friends fighting over control of the aux jack during long car journeys, to jamming to these tracks, followed by countless remixes played in bars, pubs and clubs of all kinds – from the mundane to the high-end – his music has kept people all over the world dancing until 3am.

Meanwhile, as of September 2024, the artist is all set for his upcoming concert on September 7 at Sao Paulo’s Estádio MorumBIS, produced by Live Nation. Additionally, he will also open his Halloween Horror Nights experience at Universal Studios, titled The Weeknd: Nightmare Trilogy, which runs from tomorrow (September 5) through November 3.

Next month he concludes his two-year After Hours Til the Dawn tour with a quartet of shows in Australia, two in Melbourne and two in Sydney, on October 5-6 and October 22-23.
