i’ll admit, like many OG weeknd fans, it’s hard to move on from trilogy and to refrain from comparing all his work to that era but, hurry up tomorrow, is such a masterpiece in so many ways.

after years of the world perceiving him as “cleaned up” and on track, the weeknd makes sure the listener knows where he truly stands. with the dark lyrics of tracks like “opening night”, “given up on me”, and even one of my favorites “enjoy the show” you can’t help but be concerned. he touches on drug withdrawals and constant instances of nearing death but this transparency and vulnerability throughout the album is what makes it so good. can’t forget my favorite upbeat songs on the album as well like são paulo, open hearts, and timeless.

overall faves:
são paulo
open hearts
opening night
enjoy the show
i can’t wait to get there
timeless
niagara falls 🤍

also have to mention, i saw him live for this album and it was genuinely one of the best concerts ive been to
