The Weeknd Breaks Down

Mar 5, 2020 | 6:19 AM

The Weeknd has shared a short film called After Hours, which precedes his upcoming album of the same name.

The video begins at the end of the musician’s recent performance of “Blinding Lights” on Jimmy Kimmel Live! and follows him through the corridors of the TV studio and out onto the streets of LA. After a series of unsettling scenes, The Weeknd is seemingly suffering from a head injury and finds himself in a delirious state. The video ends with a menacing scene of The Weeknd in an elevator with a young couple, who don’t appear to have survived the ride.

After Hours, due March 20th, is the follow-up to 2016’s Starboy. It has already spawned hits “Heartless” and “Blinding Lights.”

The Weeknd will kick off his After Hours Tour on June 11. The 62-date global trek will travel to the U.S., Canada, U.K., Belgium, Netherlands, Germany, and France with support from Sabrina Claudio and Don Toliver in the U.S. and 88GLAM and Claudio in Europe. Additional shows have been added in London, Los Angeles, Toronto, and Miami.

The Weeknd will return to SNL as musical guest on Saturday.
