Spotify Releases The Weeknd Concert Film To Celebrate His 25 “Billions Club” Songs

On Tuesday (January 7), Spotify launched their first-ever concert film featuring a live performance from one of their most-streamed artists, The Weeknd. The 45-minute film is titled, Billions Club Live With The Weeknd, and captures the music superstar’s recent one-night-only Los Angeles concert that highlighted his record-breaking 25 songs with over a billion total streams. In addition to the Weeknd’s chart-topping hits, the set also features performances of new tracks from his highly-anticipated upcoming album, Hurry Up Tomorrow. The concert film also includes some voiceover insights from The Weeknd, in which he “reflects on moments of transformation throughout his career and expresses gratitude for his global audience,” according to a press release. In addition to the January 24 release of Hurry Up Tomorrow, which Abel Tesfaye calls “my last hurrah as The Weeknd,” he is also releasing an accompanying psychological thriller film of the same name in May, which is directed by Trey Edward Shults and also stars Jenna Ortega and Barry Keoghan.
