It’s a line that feels very on brand. Hurry Up Tomorrow’s release has been promoted with billboards declaring “THE END IS NEAR”, social media posts in which Tesfaye has inferred the album is the final “beautiful chapter” in his story and interviews during which he’s suggested that a 2022 incident in which he lost his voice on stage was some kind of cosmic message: “You can end it now when is the right time to leave if not at your peak?”It is perhaps worth noting that the same was true of his last album more-or-less: 2022’s Dawn FM was rich with e...
