The Weeknd has pushed the release of his new album, Hurry Up Tomorrow, because of the California wildfires, as well as cancelling a one-off performance at the city’s Rose Bowl venue on 25 January “out of respect and concern for the people of LA county”.
Hurry Up Tomorrow was due for release on 24 January. It will now arrive a week later on 31 January. “This city has always been a profound source of inspiration for me, and my thoughts are with everyone impacted during this difficult time,” the musician, AKA Abel Tesfaye, said in a statement posted to Instagram.
