The Weeknd is officially back with new music on the way.

Following his brief hiatus from the scene, the “Blinding Lights” hitmaker is set to make his long-awaited comeback with the release of his sixth studio album, titled Hurry Up Tomorrow.

The Weeknd himself officially shared the news via his social media platforms, posting an ominous, nearly two-minute video to his pages. Filled with several seemingly self-questioning series of statements that include several self-referential lines from his songs and symphonic music, it further amplifies the showmanship and dramatic flair that the 34-year-old musician has become known for. Check out what the video had to say below:

“Yesterday was fourteen years ago…

We held our breath, falling into a shimmering sea in the after hours of the night…

Attempted to cleanse the wounds with melodies and lights, a bulletproof bandage to shield what lies beneath.

In a place where the seasons never changed, where time ceased to exist. But therein lays the problem.

Today has felt like an endless spin. I keep distorting the truth, immune to the dizziness, numb to the nausea.

What lies beneath — screams in silence.

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

Hurry Up Tomorrow.”

Hurry Up Tomorrow marks the third and final installment in The Weeknd’s album trilogy that started with 2020’s After Hours and following the release of 2022’s Dawn FM. Both its predecessors were released to major critical and commercial acclaim — with the two albums reaching the top of the Billboard 200 chart and each spawning a number of hit singles like “Blinding Lights,” “Save Your Tears,” “Out Of Time,” and “Take My Breath.”

Although the album currently has no official release date, it’s just the start of another busy run for the multiple Grammy award-winning musician. He will be performing a special concert at Estádio Morumbi in São Paulo, Brazil that will be live-streamed on YouTube this weekend on September 7, 2024, and will be opening his “Halloween Horror Nights” experience at Universal Studios, titled “The Weeknd: Nightmare Trilogy,” which will go on from September 5 through November 3, 2024.

Just recently, The Weeknd produced and starred in the HBO Original series The Idol, which, despite critical flak, saw commercial success with the release of his various tracks that have occupied several spots on the Billboard charts, including the single “One Of Your Girls” featuring Lily-Rose Depp and BLACKPINK‘s Jennie. Also in 2023, he dropped his first live album, Live at SoFi Stadium, which chronicles his two November 2022 concerts for the After Hours ‘TIl Dawn World Tour at the SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California.
