The Weeknd will release a new album this week.
The Canadian superstar took to social media to confirm that 'Dawn FM' will arrive on January 7. It follows his 2020 LP 'After Hours'.
Accompanying the announcement of the new record is a trailer that introduces it as "A New Sonic Universe From The Mind Of The Weeknd", and reveals it will feature contributions from Jim Carrey, Quincy Jones, Tyler, The Creator, Lil Wayne and Oneohtrix Point Never.
Tweeting about the release, actor Carrey said: "I listened to Dawn FM with my good friend Abel @theweeknd last night. It was deep and elegant and it danced me around the room. I’m thrilled to play a part in his symphony. ;^•"
In December, Abel Tesfaye released a video for Echoes of Silence, the title track of one of three mixtapes that he released in 2011, the others being 'House of Balloons' and 'Thursday'. Last year, all of them were uploaded to streaming services for the first time.
