OUT NOW The Weeknd - Hurry Up Tomorrow

Added to Calendar: 01-31-25

on first listen, it’s cool. middle part of the album is the best. he sandwiched the r&b/soul and rap influenced tracks between the pop shit (which i typically don’t hate, but he’s executed it better)
 
On first listen, it's boring and too long.

I won't judge too quickly though. I didn't like Dawn FM the first time I heard it either, but it grew on me big time.
 
Been playing this album all weekend.

And quite frankly, it's dope. Time will tell on how well it ages but right now I'm quite impressed because I had very low expectations for this album due to them singles being released ngl
 
I still trying to decide if I like this album or not. I dunno what that means lol.

Honestly, that's how the Weeknd is for me in general. Outside of a few tracks that I love on first listen, I always hear his stuff and have to take time figuring out whether I like it or not. I don't know what it is though. This album is just missing something for me. It doesn't seem to have anything that just hits. Everything sounds so flighty.
 
I get that this is the end of this trilogy of albums (After Hours, Dawn FM), so this supposed to be a spectacle of a finale. With that said tho off the first listen it’s a mixed bag for me. The album is way too damn long and alot of tracks I can do without. When they hit tho they HIT so I dunno. This one of those albums you gotta be in a particular frame of mind to tackle lol.

There’s also a movie that’s coming out based on this in May that’s supposed to be a psychological thriller… we’ll see how that goes.

What I do know is seeing how he performed at the Grammys a few days ago and he on good terms, bet money this get nominated for AOTY next year.
 
final verdict: it’s solid. definitely my least favorite weeknd project. the album doesn’t pick up for me until about ten tracks in. usually that would kill an album but timeless, niagara falls, given up on me, enjoy the show, i can’t wait to get there, without warning, drive etc. kept it alive

not a fan of the singles he’s chosen either. timeless is the exception but even that had to grow on me. playboi carti can gtfo tho
