My theories: Album title ideas: "Abel" (Self titled). "Cali Was The Mission" (sentence said in three previous Abel songs, "The Morning", "Tell Your Friends" and "Snowchild"). "Everything Fades" (sentence teased by Abel written on a notepad, similar to the title reveal of "My Dear Melancholy"). "Genesis" (bible verse that Abel posted on instagram). Track Number and Sound: Around 14 - 20 tracks long. First half of the album sounds like "Trilogy" dark R&B Abel, and the second half sounds like 80's inspired pop. (Just my theory, I don't have a source for this). Features: (Theory) No features. (My dream) 6 features: Ariana Grande. Drake (tho, due to recent events, this most-likely won't happen). Travis Scott (most-likely after Mike Dean's concert). Bruno Mars (many fans' dream collab with Abel 1). Dua Lipa (many fans' dream collab with Abel 2). Don Toliver (because he almost went on tour with Abel until covid happened). Unreleased songs / rumored track titles that might be on the album: "After Life" (Abel said in an interview that "the title that everyone thinks is the album title isn't the title of the album, but it is of a song on the album", and because of the track "Every Angel Is Terrifying" from "Dawn FM" being an ad for a product called "After Life", everyone at first thought that it was the title of the album until this interview). "Cali Was The Mission" (same as why it could be the album title). "Everything Fades" (same as why it could be the album title). "Genesis" (same as why it could be the album title). "I Love It When You're Angry" (snippet posted by Abel for tour announcement months before "Dawn FM" release / Abel teased at every third track on the trilogy to have the word "Love" in the title, "Hardest To Love" from "After Hours" and "How Do I Make You Love Me?" from "Dawn FM"). "Mama" (rumored track title). "Deeper" (leaked unreleased song featuring Starrah and produced by Metro Boomin from "After Hours" era). "Antoine (Hold Your Heart)" (unreleased song teased by Abel on instagram live from "After Hours" era). "Myself (Take Me Back To L.A.)" (unreleased song teased by Abel on instagram live from "After Hours" era / Abel's most demanded unreleased song / performed at Mike Dean's concert). "In Heaven (Everything Is Fine)" (performed at Mike Dean's concert). "Wake Me Up" (leaked unreleased song rumored to be on the soundtrack of the currently untitled horror movie Abel wrote and is starring in with Jenna Ortega). "Die Young" (leaked unreleased snippet). "Neon City" (go on Genius.com). "On Your Knees" (go on Genius.com). *UPDATE* A new snippet was previewed called “I Couldn’t Love You”. Release date theories: (Originally I thought February 16th because it's Abel's birthday and it was on a Friday in 2024, but we're a month and a half past that day so that's debunked). November 15th (closest Friday in 2024 to the anniversary of the first Trilogy). December 20th (closest Friday in 2024 to the anniversary of "Echoes Of Silence" / Christmas present from Abel). (As an extra, I wanna say September 13th because my birthday is September 15th and I hope he drops either the album or his movie with Jenna Ortega before then *mostly the movie*). Album cover theory: I agree that it might be Baby Abel on the cover with a purple background. Almost everyone thinks this.
In my opinion, I think Abel is dropping hints about the new album. You never know with Abel. He is being very cryptic with his deletes. Abel is definitely full of surprises. We just have to wait and see what Abel has in store for us
Little theory of mine After hours is the name of a movie Dawn fm is literally a radio station « ? » will be related to another kind of media, and I would guess it may be theatre play or something
In Every Angel is Terrifying After Life is mentioned but is never explained what it is, it seems to be a product or form of media, so maybe it’ll be called After Life
2:13 there is the best concert of my life! I think that he might release a single or the album on November 13th, the day the trilogy remaster was released
Love this, I have a prediction. once the rebirth album drops and Abel goes on tour with it, I think he will perform shows just like after hours til dawn but this time he will not wear a mask because the mask represents The Weeknd and when he removes the mask it’s Abel and he feels more happy without the mask and he’s reborn as Abel.
love the video ❤ though honestly, hear me out, you could make a second theory out of this: Abel if hes making his true last album, deleting everything from his socials, having a new costume (cuz his current costume looks like hes in a transformation to his rebirth) and doing everything he can to remove his previous existence then these are the points I have speculated: - He is probably gonna name the album after himself or some simple 1 word that is strong and powerful ("Rebirth", "Death" and "Transformation" are good examples) or alternatively he could make a theme like he did in Dawn FM like making it as if hes driving through his whole life again (since gasoline does it and so does snowchild) and name the album after that. - He is also most likely going to (not delete) but rather hide all his old music from his popular streams only keeping them as albums, and with that he's also probably gonna make some decisions for a new whole identity (even bigger than what fans think) so like maybe changing his whole music style. - About the album itself, it is what I strongly think is gonna be a loop-like thing for 1/3 of the album then hes going to show a strong, powerful song (similar to Life of the Party) and hes going to break out of it, that 1/3 of songs are gonna be in loop with dawn fm (continuing), then in 2/3 hes gonna have a side character (mostly mike dean) who will roleplay god and make him feel pain of all his sins (alternatively transitioning and replaying his whole career life in front of him, and most hightlighted being house of balloons and thursday (cuz theoretically echoes of silence is not really any sinful actions)) and while that happens hes going like switch the song styles a lot going through each of the music styles he has ever done before. - The last section of the album is probably gonna be a one-to-one reflection of what song style hes gonna pursue (that is certainly not pop or synthwaved) and hes going to sing about his new life being how it is. - lastly, for the album cover it is most definitely one of the two: 1. his child photo on a specially highlighted color (which i give it to the fans, mostly purple) 2. a shadow of his current identity with a haunting background - and yes, i can say this for sure, the first music video is probably gonna start off as he removes his mask from the rebirthing era (aka the after hours til dawn tour) and show a brand new, no scratches, fully healed abel who looks just as natural as he did before he started house of balloons or any of his drugs what i would add on to all this is i strongly believe drakes coming back as a feature on any of his songs since hes most guaranteed going to reflect or mention kiss land in the near slightest (cmon the albums of rebirth and fear do have some strong connections)
I think the last album should be called “Here Comes The Sun” - this is because the last song of trilogy is called “Til Dawn (Here Comes The Sun)” and so it will be some sort of cyclical structure in that sense. Also, if he were to do a tour of the new trilogy it would be called: “After Hours Til Dawn, Here Comes The Sun” which forms a whole and complete sentence and would just sound insane😩
Tommy Rush previously posted synthesizer-playing aliens on his Instagram stories and wrote, "The next Weeknd album," and OPN said the album will be futuristic, so maybe spaceships or aliens will bring him to heaven?
I became a fan shortly after the dawn till after hours tour era and I’m just sad that I missed out on the releases of Starboy, After Hours, and Dawn FM, but atleast I’ll be here for his grand finale
The song he sang at mike deans event, “In heaven” is a song from a movie that Abels been posting ever since, called Eraserhead, its one his favorites. Search up Lady in the Radiator.
Take me back LA, would fit perfect in my theory: I think/hope on the next album abel will be reborn and has the chance to do sum different than his past life, but he is doing everything the same and falls again for the drugs and hoes. It is a hopeless and sad ending and i would love it.
I know this sounds super dumb but what if take me back to L.A is connected to escape from L.A in after hours wherein the reborn/afterlife version of the weeknd still wants to go back to his fame or something back in L.A
Just received an email yesterday from Ticketek that mine and everyone that got tickets for The Weeknd tour for Australia and New Zealand has been cancelled and tickets are refunded would you be able to look into the information for a video if you can
New theory. This guy is Abel himself trying to lead us to the wrong way.
😂😂😂
Yep valid theory
@@JASONYXO actually he can be any of us. Maybe even YOU!

Little theory of mine
After hours is the name of a movie
Dawn fm is literally a radio station
« ? » will be related to another kind of media, and I would guess it may be theatre play or something
I love this theory, especially since Abel has been teasing a theatrical theme.
@@anythingabelyt yeahhh pretty much where it came from
After hours and dawn fm are times of the day so (?) might be aswell
@@hurryuptomorrowxo7 trueeeeee
In Every Angel is Terrifying After Life is mentioned but is never explained what it is, it seems to be a product or form of media, so maybe it’ll be called After Life
THE ENDING😱😱😱😱
2:13 there is the best concert of my life!
I think that he might release a single or the album on November 13th, the day the trilogy remaster was released

Very interesting
love the video ❤ though honestly, hear me out, you could make a second theory out of this:
Abel if hes making his true last album, deleting everything from his socials, having a new costume (cuz his current costume looks like hes in a transformation to his rebirth) and doing everything he can to remove his previous existence then these are the points I have speculated:
- He is probably gonna name the album after himself or some simple 1 word that is strong and powerful ("Rebirth", "Death" and "Transformation" are good examples) or alternatively he could make a theme like he did in Dawn FM like making it as if hes driving through his whole life again (since gasoline does it and so does snowchild) and name the album after that.
- He is also most likely going to (not delete) but rather hide all his old music from his popular streams only keeping them as albums, and with that he's also probably gonna make some decisions for a new whole identity (even bigger than what fans think) so like maybe changing his whole music style.
- About the album itself, it is what I strongly think is gonna be a loop-like thing for 1/3 of the album then hes going to show a strong, powerful song (similar to Life of the Party) and hes going to break out of it, that 1/3 of songs are gonna be in loop with dawn fm (continuing), then in 2/3 hes gonna have a side character (mostly mike dean) who will roleplay god and make him feel pain of all his sins (alternatively transitioning and replaying his whole career life in front of him, and most hightlighted being house of balloons and thursday (cuz theoretically echoes of silence is not really any sinful actions)) and while that happens hes going like switch the song styles a lot going through each of the music styles he has ever done before.
- The last section of the album is probably gonna be a one-to-one reflection of what song style hes gonna pursue (that is certainly not pop or synthwaved) and hes going to sing about his new life being how it is.
- lastly, for the album cover it is most definitely one of the two:
1. his child photo on a specially highlighted color (which i give it to the fans, mostly purple)
2. a shadow of his current identity with a haunting background
- and yes, i can say this for sure, the first music video is probably gonna start off as he removes his mask from the rebirthing era (aka the after hours til dawn tour) and show a brand new, no scratches, fully healed abel who looks just as natural as he did before he started house of balloons or any of his drugs
what i would add on to all this is i strongly believe drakes coming back as a feature on any of his songs since hes most guaranteed going to reflect or mention kiss land in the near slightest (cmon the albums of rebirth and fear do have some strong connections)
I think the last album should be called “Here Comes The Sun” - this is because the last song of trilogy is called “Til Dawn (Here Comes The Sun)” and so it will be some sort of cyclical structure in that sense. Also, if he were to do a tour of the new trilogy it would be called: “After Hours Til Dawn, Here Comes The Sun” which forms a whole and complete sentence and would just sound insane😩
WE NEED THIS ❤
Amazing XO
Tommy Rush previously posted synthesizer-playing aliens on his Instagram stories and wrote, "The next Weeknd album," and OPN said the album will be futuristic, so maybe spaceships or aliens will bring him to heaven?
I became a fan shortly after the dawn till after hours tour era and I’m just sad that I missed out on the releases of Starboy, After Hours, and Dawn FM, but atleast I’ll be here for his grand finale
I think the weeknd is gonna release a single first like he did for dawn fm with take my breath
The song he sang at mike deans event, “In heaven” is a song from a movie that Abels been posting ever since, called Eraserhead, its one his favorites. Search up Lady in the Radiator.
Love it
❤❤❤❤❤
The Everything is Fine song is from a movie from the 1980s (David Lynch Erasurehead.) Maybe he will remix it though
Take me back LA, would fit perfect in my theory:
I think/hope on the next album abel will be reborn and has the chance to do sum different than his past life, but he is doing everything the same and falls again for the drugs and hoes. It is a hopeless and sad ending and i would love it.
Bruno Mars HAS TO BE on this album as closure, I don’t think I’ll ever be able to sleep again knowing that a Weeknd and Bruno Mars song was never made
omg i need it
When the album releases?
Album's name might be Eden.
He has released a new album the highlights. This is maybe the last highlights of 'The Weeknd' before he releases the new album and kills The Weeknd
Nice vid 👍 keep it up
I know this sounds super dumb but what if take me back to L.A is connected to escape from L.A in after hours wherein the reborn/afterlife version of the weeknd still wants to go back to his fame or something back in L.A
that's exactly the point, bro.
he wants to be back in la but as a reborn version of himself.
xo
Just received an email yesterday from Ticketek that mine and everyone that got tickets for The Weeknd tour for Australia and New Zealand has been cancelled and tickets are refunded would you be able to look into the information for a video if you can
what tour era? he never came to australia
He will come to Australia once the album drops, have patience
