During an episode of Apple Music's "Memento Mori" on Oct. 4, 2021, The Weeknd revealed that his new album, "Dawn FM," is complete. "Only thing missing is a couple of characters that are key to the narrative," he said. "Some people that are near and dear to me, some people that inspired my life as a child . . . and some that inspire me now." The "Save Your Tears" singer added that fans can expect new music videos and "exciting features" related to the album in the months leading up to its release.
On Jan. 3, the singer announced on Instagram that his new album was on the way, sharing a video clip that teased future guest appearances from stars like Jim Carrey, Quincy Jones, Tyler, The Creator, Lil Wayne, and Oneohtrix Point Never. A few days later, on Jan. 7, The Weeknd officially released the full "Dawn FM" album, along with a music video for his song "Sacrifice."
The full album includes tracks like "How Do I Make You Love Me?" "Don't Break My Heart," and "Out of Time." Since debuting "Dawn FM," The Weeknd has also been working on his latest project, "The Idol," a star-studded series about the relationship between a rising pop star and a cult leader, which is set to premiere in 2023.
