The Weeknd announced on Instagram on Monday (January 13) that he has postponed the release of his new album, Hurry Up Tomorrow, and has cancelled his upcoming Rose Bowl Stadium concert due to the wildfires that are devastating the Los Angeles area. The release date for his highly-anticipated record has been pushed back from January 24 to January 31. The Weeknd’s one-night-only stadium show in Pasadena, California, scheduled for the day after the album’s release on January 25, has been cancelled entirely. The Weeknd, whose real name is Abel Tesfaye, said the decision to cancel his show was reached “out of respect and concern for the people of Los Angeles County.” A new date for the Rose Bowl concert has not been announced. “This city has always been a profound source of inspiration for me, and my thoughts are with everyone impacted during this difficult time,” Tesfaye wrote. “My focus remains on supporting the recovery of these communities and aiding its incredible people as they rebuild.” (Rolling Stone)
