The Weekend says he is working on his last album ahead of 'The Idol' release

Abel Tesfaye, popularly known 'The Weekend' announced that he's working on his last music album as The Weeknd. Speaking to W Magazine, the singer-actor revealed he might be ending one part of his musical career, 'The album I’m working on now is probably my last hurrah as The Weeknd. This is something that I have to do. As The Weeknd, I’ve said everything I can say.'

He further added, 'At the moment, I'm on a cathartic path. It's getting to the point where I'm preparing to wrap up the Weeknd chapter. I'll continue to release music, possibly as The Weeknd or as Abel. I still desire to murder The Weeknd, though. I will, too. Eventually. Undoubtedly, I'm attempting to shed that exterior and become new.'

The singer's previous music album Dawn FM was released last January. He is also set to star in a new film project with Jenna Ortega, which is directed by Trey Edward Shults.
