Hurry Up Tomorrow

the take

Review: Hurry Up Tomorrow – The Weeknd First listen and omg… the TRANSITIONS??! 😭 il est fou Wake Me Up (8/10) opens the album super cinematic, literally sounds like a Marvel villain soundtrack and the high notes at the end are crazy. Cry For Me (9.5/10) starts with an afro-inspired prod that weirdly gives K-pop vibes?? + the lyrics are sooo good, I can already see the bridge blowing up on TikTok. Then I Can’t F*ing Sing (10/10 capped lol) as an interlude is just chaotic and funny before São Paulo (10/10) which has one of the best transitions ever 😭⁉️ like how does he do that. Until We’re Skin & Bones and Baptized in Fear (both capped at 10/10) are emotional peaks, slower and darker, with the breathing effects and lyrics hitting HARD (I almost cried ngl 🥲). Open Hearts (10/10) flows so smoothly I didn’t even realize another song had started. Some tracks like Opening Night (5.5/10) and Reflection Laughing (7.5/10) slow things down a bit, but then Enjoy the Show (10/10 capped) comes in all smooth and sweet like honey 🍯. The second half keeps the dreamy vibe with Timeless (9.5/10), Niagara Falls (8/10) and Take Me Back to LA (8/10). The real highlight though is The Abyss (10/10 capped) featuring Lana Del Rey — soft at first but it builds into something huge. Finally Hurry Up Tomorrow (10/10 capped) closes the album beautifully, almost like a goodbye from The Weeknd 😔⭐ and the fact that it loops back to High for This (his first ever track) is just… perfect. love you Abel ﾒ𝟶 ❤️‍🔥
