Created by director Anton Tammi and cinematographer Erik Henrikkson, the video for ‘Dancing in the Flames’ was shot in 4K entirely on an iPhone, thanks to the latest iPhone 16 Pro model. A behind-the-scenes look at the video was presented during Apple’s ‘It’s Glowtime’ event, revealing its cinematic and surreal atmosphere.
The forthcoming album ‘Hurry Up Tomorrow’ promises to be the final chapter in The Weeknd’s acclaimed trilogy, alongside ‘Dawn FM’ (platinum in Italy) and ‘After Hours’ (triple platinum in Italy), as well as the decisive testimony to his artistic and musical evolution, encapsulating existential and self-referential themes that have captured the imagination of fans. The announcement of the project’s name took place via a spectacular fleet of 150 drones in front of more than 70,000 fans at the conclusion of The Weekend’s sold-out event in São Paulo on 7 September. Fans around the world tuned in – the show was streamed exclusively on YouTube – to witness a unique concert showcasing The Weeknd’s unmistakable sound and electrifying stage presence, along with surprise guests Playboi Carti and Anitta.
To celebrate the special one-night-only South American live show, a giant picture of the artist was projected onto the historic Farol Santander building; in addition, Abel decided to donate 10 per cent of the net proceeds from all sales of the limited edition merch to the Brazilian Soul Fund of the BrazilFoundation. This Is Pop? today’s song of the day is here for you.
