“The Weeknd’s ‘Hurry Up, Tomorrow’: A Bold Farewell That Hides Secrets in Every Track”

Added on January 31, 2025 inEntertainment News Cards

Is it just me, or does the title Hurry Up, Tomorrow sound like something I’d shout at the universe while impatiently waiting for my next caffeine fix? Well, The Weeknd has certainly made it a point to strike that chord of urgency—and maybe even existential dread—with his latest (and purportedly final) release. In what can only be described as a shimmering culmination of his signature sound, Abel Tesfaye is not just saying goodbye; he’s crafting a dramatic, heart-pounding farewell that fans have been eagerly anticipating. There’s a palpable excitement in the air, as if he’s beckoning us to dance through the goodbyes and bid adieu to the persona that’s kept him at the top of the charts. So, can you feel the intensity? Because this album isn’t merely a collection of tracks—it’s a masterful orchestration that promises to leave listeners both breathless and yearning for more. Let’s dive right in, shall we?

Hurry Up, Tomorrow is a definitive release by virtue of its existence. The Weeknd pitched it as the final release under his moniker, and end of a critically acclaimed trilogy. The singles hinted at something epic and dramatic. Well, the album is finally here, and boy does it deliver on both fronts. Abel Tesfaye delivers an intense and musically intricate sendoff to the persona that made him an icon, and there is plenty that longtime Weeknd fans will love here.

The album opener, “Wake Me Up,” paints an intense and foreboding narrative. It sounds like The Weeknd giving fans his version of Michael Jackson’s “Thriller,” complete with bubbling bassline. Hurry Up is very indebted to the pop sounds of the 1980s in one respect. In another, it’s pulsing with the club sounds of modern dance and EDM music. “Sao Paolo” sounds like a demonic rave. “Open Hearts” is the sound of bearing one’s soul at the end of a night of partying. The Weeknd has always been great at evoking and conjuring imagery, and Hurry Up, Tomorrow is no different. The wait was worth it. One last triumph.
