Hurry Up Tomorrow is the sixth studio album by Canadian singer-songwriter the Weeknd. It was released through XO and Republic Records on January 31, 2025. The standard album contains guest appearances from Justice, Anitta, Travis Scott, Florence and the Machine, Future, Playboi Carti, Giorgio Moroder, and Lana Del Rey, with a bonus edition containing an additional appearance from Swedish House Mafia.[1] Production was primarily handled by the Weeknd himself and his regular collaborators including Cirkut, DaHeala, Max Martin, Mike Dean, Metro Boomin, and OPN, alongside various other producers.

Hurry Up Tomorrow is primarily an R&B, synth-pop, and trap album, while exploring a wide variety of genres such as Brazilian funk and hip-hop.[2] The album is the final installment of a trilogy following the Weeknd's previous two studio albums, After Hours (2020) and Dawn FM (2022). The Weeknd has hinted Hurry Up Tomorrow may be his final album under his stage name,[3][4] and revealed that it was partly inspired by losing his voice while on tour in 2022.[5][6][7] Hurry Up Tomorrow was supported by the singles "Timeless", "São Paulo", and "Cry for Me".

Hurry Up Tomorrow opened with first-week sales of 490,500 album-equivalent units in the U.S. and debuted at number one on the Billboard 200, marking the Weeknd's fifth number-one album on the chart. Internationally, it topped the charts in 16 countries, including in Canada, France, Norway, Belgium, Australia, the United Kingdom, and New Zealand. The album received positive reviews from critics, with praise for its production, songwriting, lyrical content and vocal performances: some critics described Hurry Up Tomorrow as a "powerful finale" to the trilogy and alter ego of the Weeknd.[8][9]
