Hurried to include a song that's turned out (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

splayed

'turned out' is the definition.
('splay' can be a synonym of 'turn out')

'hurried to include a song' is the wordplay.
'hurried' becomes 'sped' ('speed' can be a synonym of 'hurry').
'to include' indicates putting letters inside.
'a song' becomes 'lay' (poetic term for a song).
'sped' enclosing 'lay' is 'SPLAYED'.

'that's' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for splayed that I've seen before include "with legs apart" , "Spread apart" , "Turned out" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
