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 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, Mike Dean, Sage Skolfield, OPN and Nathan Salon, accompanied by a variety of producers such as Justice and Moroder themselves, Oscar Holter, Max Martin, Metro Boomin, Cirkut, DaHeala, ILYA, TBHits, Johnny Jewel, Ojivolta, Swedish House Mafia and Pharrell Williams.
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] Hurry Up Tomorrow is the final installment of a trilogy following the Weeknd's previous two studio albums, After Hours (2020) and Dawn FM (2022), with the After Hours til Dawn Tour supporting all three albums. The Weeknd has hinted that this may be his final album under the name, as he plans to "kill" the alter ego. Moving forward, he intends to continue his musical career—perhaps under his real name, Abel Tesfaye, or possibly still as the Weeknd.[3][4][5][6][7]
The album was preceded by two singles; "Timeless", and "São Paulo", with "Cry for Me" following after the album's release. It received generally positive reviews from critics, with praise for its production, songwriting, vocal performances, and closure to the arc started with the Weeknd's debut mixtape, House of Balloons (2011). Some critics described the album as a "powerful finale" to both his trilogy and alter ego.[8][9] It has also been noted by fans and critics that the album's closing song, the title track, ends the same way "High for This", the first song on House of Balloons, begins, cycling Tesfaye's career as the Weeknd.[10][11]
