Future and Metro Boomin launched their We Trust in You Tour on July 30, 2024, in Kansas City, and the first show is already making headlines. A video of Future getting emotional while performing "Wait For U," his collaboration with Drake, has gone viral.
The Superhero rapper and Drake share a complicated relationship, characterized by both collaborations and diss tracks. An X account posted the video of Future's emotional performance, noting that his top five songs of the set included collaborations with Drake.
Fans quickly shared their thoughts on the platform. One fan, referring to Future's nickname, tweeted, "I hope Pluto and Drake make up." Another commented, "Honestly, they gotta hash this s*it out … they’re an iconic duo .. the music game need them." Some fans reflected on Drake's recent mention of their relationship, expressing a desire for reconciliation. "Drake even mention him and Pluto relationship and how it hurt him they’re arguing," one user tweeted.
However, not all reactions were supportive of a reunion. Some internet users argued that Future might be better off without Drake. One user tweeted, "The song didn’t need Drake on it but it’s a beautiful song they make beautiful music but Tems and future had a different chemistry." Another added, "He’s crying because of how emotional the song is not Drake lmao."
A History of Discord: Future and Drake’s Tumultuous Relationship
The rocky relationship between Future and Drake dates back to 2011 when they collaborated on the "Tony Montana" remix. Drake’s absence from the music video caused a rift, leading to Future's critical comments about Drake. This tension resulted in Drake removing Future from his OVO label’s "Would You Like a Tour" in 2013.
Despite periods of collaboration, their relationship has remained tumultuous, recently culminating in Drake unfollowing Future on Instagram after the release of "We Don't Trust You" in March 2024, which was perceived as a diss track aimed at Drake.
In retaliation, Drake dissed Future and Metro Boomin in his May 2024 track "Family Matters," further escalating the feud. Drake even mentioned Future's nickname in the lyrics, stating, "Don’t blame my family, blame Pluto."
Metro Boomin Joins the Feud
Metro Boomin’s own tensions with Drake began in 2022 after a tweet comparing the streaming numbers of his album "Heroes & Villains" to Drake’s "Her Loss." Metro Boomin claimed that despite higher streaming numbers, his album lost the rap album of the year award due to Drake’s influence in the industry.
The internet erupted with opinions on Future’s emotional performance and the complicated history between the three artists. While some fans expressed their desire for reconciliation, others argued that Future might be better off without Drake. The feud between the two rappers has been a source of speculation and debate for years, and it seems like the drama isn't over yet.
The Future of their Collaboration: A Question Mark
The question remains: will Future and Drake ever mend their broken relationship, or will their feud continue to overshadow their musical collaborations? Only time will tell if the two artists can overcome their differences and create more music together. However, one thing is certain: their relationship continues to be a source of intrigue and fascination for fans of both artists. Their turbulent history has spawned countless memes, tweets, and blog posts, further solidifying their status as hip-hop icons whose careers are intertwined in a complex and ever-evolving narrative.
