Lana Del Rey appears as a hidden feature on The Weeknd’s new album ‘Hurry Up Tomorrow’. Check it out below.The record marks the third and final chapter of the singer’s ‘Dawn FM’ trilogy, and was shared today (January 31) via XO and Republic after being delayed last week.One thing that comes as a surprise on the record is the unexpected contributions of Lana Del Rey, who appears on the track ‘The Abyss’.Although she remains uncredited on the song, her signature vocals are heard on the stripped-back, piano-led track.This isn’t the first time that the two have joined forces.

Back in 2017, The Weeknd teamed up with Del Rey on the title track from her ‘Lust For Life’ album, and two years prior she appeared on his 2015 track ‘Prisoner’.

The latter appeared on his sophomore album ‘Beauty Behind The Madness’.The ‘Summertime Sadness’ singer is just one of a handful of collaborations on the album, with other appearances on the tracklist coming from Travis Scott, Future, Florence + the Machine, Playboi Carti and Anitta.As highlighted by Billboard, another surprise came as the previously-released single ‘Dancing In The Flames’ is noticeably left out from the final tracklist, leading to speculation as to whether it was scrapped at the last minute or set to be used as part of a separate project.The record was delayed by the singer out of respect to the victims for the Los Angeles wildfires.

Last week he also took to social media to announce the cancellation of his one-night-only concert at the Rose Bowl in California, scheduled for January 25.“Out of respect and concern for the people of Los Angeles County, I am cancelling the Rose Bowl concert originally scheduled for January 25th.
