A song-first route through Abel Tesfaye’s early mixtape material, ‘Dawn FM’ and the collaborations that close his recent album trilogy.
Abel Tesfaye has drawn a clearer line between finishing the story that began with ‘After Hours’ and retiring the name The Weeknd altogether.
From Ariana Grande’s pop pairings to the expanding cast of ‘Hurry Up Tomorrow’, these six tracks offer routes through The Weeknd’s catalogue.
Across two ‘Hurry Up Tomorrow’ videos, Abel Tesfaye makes the body a site of unease and turns a plea for reciprocal pain into something more unsettling.
The new track samples Yoko Takahashi’s ‘A Cruel Angel’s Thesis’, the opening theme to ‘Neon Genesis Evangelion’.
Abel Tesfaye says retirement “isn’t for me” as he looks beyond the story told across ‘After Hours’, ‘Dawn FM’ and ‘Hurry Up Tomorrow’.
