The Weeknd kicked off 2024 making streaming history and is ending it doing the same.

On Tuesday evening (December 17), the Canadian hitmaker (born Abel Tesfaye) took the stage at Santa Monica’s Barker Hangar for Spotify’s inaugural Billions Club Live concert.

The event celebrated Tesfaye’s achievement as the artist with the most songs surpassing 1 billion streams on the platform.

Over a 70-minute set Tesfaye cranked out live renditions of his biggest hits including ‘Starboy,’ ‘Call Out My Name,’ ‘Die for You,’ ‘Blinding Lights,’ ‘Save Your Tears,’ and many more.

But the night wasn’t just about looking back on his record-breaking career. The Weeknd also thrilled fans by teasing a major slate of projects for 2025.

“2024 is almost done. But 2025, we got some new s–t coming out. New album, new tour, new movie. New everything”.

The announcement confirms the arrival of his highly anticipated album ‘Hurry Up Tomorrow’ and its accompanying feature film of the same name.
