@@Texan4lifee I think its more so his ATL accent and rasp in his voice, atleast thats what makes me vibe to his music like the song puffin on zoo. Futures voice just slids on beats in a way no other big artists voice does
That thing Future said about being able to identify pain through melodies is some of the realest shit I’ve ever related to and coincidentally it’s one of the main reasons I started listening to him all those years ago.
And then other songs, the lyrics are so simple but his delivery caries. He is a lot more complex of an artist than most people realize. He would have fallen off like Dababy, Lil Baby and others… if his sound was the same all the time. Future is very good and under appreciated when it comes to the artistic side of things. (Sorry for the lil rant lol)😂
@@DatBoiGloomy i 100% agree bro. As someone that has been producing music for over a decade and was raised in the music industry, i gotta give him his flowers. He’s a genius. I have music on my page but you can see the difference in producing/rapping as a hobby and a way to vent vs a science and business. I clearly honed my craft as an elite lyricist but its not marketable lol
That quote about him feeling and studying the pain within Melodies is EXACTLY why I connect on a deeper level with his music. Even if you can’t relate to the lyrics word for word he transmits the exact feeling that the track attempts to. Everyone can relate to pain, heartbreak, anger, arrogance and future is the best at conveying the exact feeling thru the music
Indeed, when Future said "i just fucked your bitch in my gucci flip flops" i related to it so much as it perfectly described my struggle whilst growing up in the inner city of an eastern european post soviet shithole.
March Madness has been my favourite Future song since I first heard it. I knew about the origin of the album originating from DJ Esco sitting in an Arab jail for 56 nights, but the story about the harddrive, Esco humming the song to himself every day, and the impact the whole situation had on Future makes me appreciate the song even more. Shit goes unbelievably hard.
I’m not even a fan but what about Drake tho? I personally think he’s an industry plant but he’s been a star ever since those Sprite commercials and he never fell off seemingly
@@poindextertunes I think where people differentiate is that Drake switched to a Pop-Rap sound. Something easy to listen to with no real distinction. Once his 'Views' album got him household name status, pretty much everything he's done since then is basically another version of that album. Future has always had a distinct sound. He is methodical about trying new things, and is very often successful with using more alternative sounds. People like Future and Young Thug have inspired so many rappers but no one has been able to replicate what they do which keeps their sound fresh.
The fact that you covered so much and explained Future’s music so well without even touching on Astronaut Status speaks volumes about this man’s discography
@@nab5999It’s crazy to me that somebody who isn’t even 20 yet is making a video on Future when a lot of us can tell you this from off top our head growing up listening to him, and it’s wild that Future is even still relevant tbh. Great important video tho for those uninitated.
Crazy that his come up is rarely talked about, he's also a part of the Dungeon Family too which notably has OutKast, Goodie Mob, Janelle Monäe & many other artists along with him being cousins with Rico Wade too is insane, RIP to Rico Wade.
A lot of people like to minimize future message to just drugs but I believe he truly does and always has represented pure pain from the struggle and being from the bottom. Sure not every song touches on that legitimately but you can always tell throughout his catalog that it’s a common theme of talking about overcoming the bottom from his pov. That’s why future is relatable to me
I always felt like due to future’s mysterious and quiet persona we don’t really know much about dude. I think he’s kinda misunderstood to a certain extent. He keeps to himself but probably has the best resumes of anybody in the last 10-15 years of hip hop & R&B
The second he saw how messed up and freaky the music industry was, he wanted nothing to do with it. All these insane things being uncovered so many artists and celebrities associated with really really f’ed up things and futures name never brought up in any allegations at all cause he a real one and the industry never ever changed him
Who is Future? For the blind, he is light. For the hungry, he is bread. For the sick, he is the cure. For the sad, he is joy. For the poor, he is the treasure.
@@user-wy8do7hf1m the story of 56 Nights happened when Future and DJ Esco were in Abu Dabi and DJ Esco got arrested and locked up for 56 nights. unfortunately, DJ Esco had a hard drive full of Futures music he had recorded for the past 2 years. they didn't know when he was gonna get out so Future had to go record Beast Mode with Zaytoven. listen to "Know The Meaning" on DS2! it'll explain some of it lyrically lol
@@user-wy8do7hf1m DJ Esco was arrested in Dubai and held in jail for 56 nights, his harddrive that contained all of the 56 nights mixtape was seized. The only song Future could remember off the drive was March Madness.
I think Future is one of the most underrated artists in the world. People see him as another Drake, a big artist with lots of hits and no depth. But he revolutionized rap to such a degree that you can barely tell because everyone else sounds exactly like him. Beyond that, from Monster to DS2 to Purple Reign to something completely off the wall like SAVE ME, Future's artistry is so diverse and much of it is timeless. It's kind of hard to express, but there's an ethereal, darkly beautiful quality to his music that no one else really captures. I don't know how Future isn't in the Big 3 conversation because he's absolutely a better artist than two of them.
He can never be better than drake. Drake is much more Versatile than future. Not to mention drakes the reason future has number 1 hits. Futures a goat but he won’t surpass drake
Future is definitely in the goat realm for the past decade 🙌 consistent bangers, under the radar but maintains relevance, evolution in each album and always trying new shxt
I knew Future was a star from the very first time i heard his feature on Racks. It’s been crazy to see his journey so far. Solo is by far my most favourite track of his. Peak 4AM driving through the empty city kinda music.
I like your taste sir, my fav song of all time is very similar not solo but the very next track off HNDRXX “sorry”. Any genre any artist any time period I will choose that song to listen to for the rest of my life. Future really makes timeless music fr
I’ve legit had future as my goat since 2020. he’s obviously not the best technical rapper, but in terms of influence, hits, artistic direction, diversity, so much more i could name he’s always gonna be number one for me.
People don’t remember that when Future first came to the mainstream, everyone was clowning his song “Tony Montana” and saying it’s one worst songs ever released. They claimed he was a mumble rapper who would flop. It’s crazy how he never quit and became what he is, growing while succeeding. 💯
Future is really the greatest artist. I have tons of hundreds thousands minutes of listening to Future, he is the goat, I know everything about him, seen him multiple times. Thank you for the video brother.
I think he is the embodiment of when hopelessness that your situation will change eventually leads to you changing. I think this is what a lot of people especially young men feel.”If my situation is messed up and won’t change no matter what. If people are still gonna hate me. If I’m still gonna lose the people I want Why change ? I’d rather keep doing what I’m good at and see where it gets me.” It’s unfortunate but the lack of options to take, lack of forgiveness to be had for others creates people like this. There is no redemption, no improvement, no empathy for you. The only thing that’s left for you to fall back on is money, drugs, women, and jewelry. So you dive head first into that lifestyle. The person that comes out of that lifestyle is not the same one that went in. This new person, is a monster…
He is the embodiment of hopelessness and self destruction and you see him smiling with pride yet his eyes pot-ray how sad he is. Thats why he wears shades when out on public.
This video deserves to be archived somewhere safe. The way you explained everything about a big misunderstood artist like future makes this such an amazing documentary. Keep up the good work😊
The story-telling is INSANE, great video, great conclusions, amazing presentation. Love the work you put into the video, its production, and the project as a whole. I watched the entire video and it felt like minutes, I'll study you and you magneticism, because you sucked me into the story by the first sentence you said. Amazing job!
i went to school with a large group of Atl kids and they definitely introduced me to future and he had all the parties on smash. this was 2011-2015 so i defiantly got to see him blow up
This documentary can be summed up by Future’s line in Look Ahead. The intro to Honest: “Never sacrifice who you are Then you turn yourself into a star Turned myself into a avatar”
yall don’t know how much i love this channel its the only one i watch every video all the way through i hope he continues to keep making this videos forever
The fact that Future has been in the game for so long and is STILL topping the charts and showing no signs of falling off is crazy. As much as they will hate to admit it, sooner or later people will have to give him a spot in the big 3
I remember when Same Damn Time dropped. finding out he was making music for years before that is crazy. I think a lot of us saw him as younger than he was, and that helped him out. I thought he was the same age as YC when I heard "Racks." I appreciate the criticism that future acts younger than he is, especially with the "I never liked you" album, but it feels like he's playing a role that is 10-15 years younger than his real life.
Every now and then, I get an itch to listen to his music, but whenever I go find that music in other places, Gunna, Thug, 21, etc. It just doesn't scratch the itch. And that's not to say those guys are bad by any means. It's just to say that there is only and will only ever be one Future.
There’s only a few rappers who have gave me goosebumps with their music. Eminem, 50 Cent, Lil Wayne, Pac, Drake, Future These are my most listened artists of all time.
I really loved the way you put these documentaries together man. Great storytelling , well researched and just the perfect visual transitions and audio tracking. I really want to do this for artists from Bangladesh, huge inspiration ❤ thanks
I've always been in awe of his decade long peak, his 2014 - 2016 era defining run but seeing his come up and how his background played a big role in the modern day hip hop/trap scene. 👍🔥
Idc what anybody gotta say about it but that Honest album by future was a classic fr most underrated album he ever dropped damn near the most underrated album period by a major artist. I've been saying this since it dropped in 2014. That album layed the base foundation of future's still current melodic sound
I’m not really a (modern) rap fan… more of a Metalhead… and I don’t even really care for Future too much… But “Mask Off” is one of my favorite songs from any genre ever. Just the original version. MASTERPIECE!!
Great video! I was a freshman in 2012 and watching his growth by my senior year when he released ds2 and 56 nightz was wild. All the house parties had march madness on and its all i listened to during senior week . What a time to be alive.
This was an amazing video. I absolutely love music. The history, the lyrical deep dives, the emotions you feel, all of it. I’ve always liked future’s music, but never did any real research into him. Being older now and finding my way through adulthood, I really have time to focus on the things I love. Needless to say…. I watched this whole video twice.
This is actually a culturally important video because people really try and group Future in with these "Minute-made" artists and downplay his greatness
I love the point made that when he was young hanging with his cousin, he wasnt trying to network with his cousins clients or doing too much. He just sat, listened, learned, and then years later took all that knowledge and went hard just making music. Have to respect him for that. You dont have to go crazy or sit back and chill to achieve your dreams. You have to keep your eyes and ears open at all times and then go hard when your ready to apply what you learned.

i went to school with a large group of Atl kids and they definitely introduced me to future and he had all the parties on smash. this was 2011-2015 so i defiantly got to see him blow up
Future really is one of the greatest, most influential rappers of our time. And he is showing no signs of slowing down
That Thug quote hurts honestly seeing how it aged... Damn
This documentary can be summed up by Future’s line in Look Ahead. The intro to Honest:
“Never sacrifice who you are
Then you turn yourself into a star
Turned myself into a avatar”
Honest wasn’t trash at all.
Ehhh
I love that album it’s one of my favorite
Agreed, he definitely lost me when he said benz friendz was mid….. like are you crazy
yall don’t know how much i love this channel its the only one i watch every video all the way through i hope he continues to keep making this videos forever
This is the documentary I didn’t know I needed
The fact that Future has been in the game for so long and is STILL topping the charts and showing no signs of falling off is crazy. As much as they will hate to admit it, sooner or later people will have to give him a spot in the big 3
In some way, on some level, we all relate to future. That’s what makes his music so special.
Future has been my favorite rapper since 2010 ppl looked at me like I was crazy 😂. This was a great watch thank you!
Same fam. Lol the homies always got annoyed cause I always wanted to play the burned future cd in the whip 😂
Yep dirty sprite, 1000 it’s amazing to see where he at now but I knew it. Been listening to this dude for 14 years
You Know someone is good at something, when they make it look easy.
“Music for weight loss Reels” is crazy funny lmao good shit dawg
I remember when Same Damn Time dropped. finding out he was making music for years before that is crazy. I think a lot of us saw him as younger than he was, and that helped him out. I thought he was the same age as YC when I heard "Racks." I appreciate the criticism that future acts younger than he is, especially with the "I never liked you" album, but it feels like he's playing a role that is 10-15 years younger than his real life.
Our boy sold 612 songs for 65-75 million. He did Good! I appreciate you good sir! Great video
Every now and then, I get an itch to listen to his music, but whenever I go find that music in other places, Gunna, Thug, 21, etc. It just doesn't scratch the itch. And that's not to say those guys are bad by any means.
It's just to say that there is only and will only ever be one Future.
There’s only a few rappers who have gave me goosebumps with their music.
Eminem, 50 Cent, Lil Wayne, Pac, Drake, Future
These are my most listened artists of all time.
Uhm sir you forgot kendrick Lamar
@@ZoLANI-mpandlaYT_Channel. no, I didn’t.
Eminem = Polar bear in Arlington Texas
I really loved the way you put these documentaries together man. Great storytelling , well researched and just the perfect visual transitions and audio tracking. I really want to do this for artists from Bangladesh, huge inspiration ❤ thanks
I just lost my job and this feeds me hope ❤❤
I've always been in awe of his decade long peak, his 2014 - 2016 era defining run but seeing his come up and how his background played a big role in the modern day hip hop/trap scene. 👍🔥
A lot of my friends have always paralleled me to Future and that “Be Smart don’t look Smart” comment was spot on
Great video man, thanks for sharing this.
Thank you! Been waiting on you do dis THIS one!!
Idc what anybody gotta say about it but that Honest album by future was a classic fr most underrated album he ever dropped damn near the most underrated album period by a major artist. I've been saying this since it dropped in 2014. That album layed the base foundation of future's still current melodic sound
Bro move that dope was my favorite song as a kid when it came out
Exactly!!!!
You obviously did a great Job. You showed this man in a unique yet challenging way. It all made me appreciate Future a lot more. Thank you.
Amazingly put together! Was enthralled with your storytelling and following Future's rise. Brilliant!
I literally just wrote the same comment and scrolled down to see SO many people being supportive in the comments. Its awesome. All ❤
rip rico wade
This video made me feel for future in a way I never saw the guy. Love your shit man
How you gonna completely ignore _"Purple Reign"_ 😭 The best mixtape ever produced 👑
I’m not really a (modern) rap fan… more of a Metalhead… and I don’t even really care for Future too much…
But “Mask Off” is one of my favorite songs from any genre ever. Just the original version. MASTERPIECE!!
Love you better is what officially put future back in my top 5 indefinitely cause I related to it on a different level
Been listening to Pluto since "show money" that song still sounds relevant even in 2024.
Great video! I was a freshman in 2012 and watching his growth by my senior year when he released ds2 and 56 nightz was wild. All the house parties had march madness on and its all i listened to during senior week . What a time to be alive.
One of the best of our time. Glad i got to see and hear it with yall
“ Benjamin's Burn ” is one of his legendary songs, with Esco
I was waiting on the future episode forever😂 amazing video
Your videos are so in depth and insightful appreciate your work 👏🏽
This was an amazing video. I absolutely love music. The history, the lyrical deep dives, the emotions you feel, all of it. I’ve always liked future’s music, but never did any real research into him. Being older now and finding my way through adulthood, I really have time to focus on the things I love. Needless to say…. I watched this whole video twice.
This is actually a culturally important video because people really try and group Future in with these "Minute-made" artists and downplay his greatness
What an amazing documentary‼️ Thank you so much for this bro
I love the point made that when he was young hanging with his cousin, he wasnt trying to network with his cousins clients or doing too much. He just sat, listened, learned, and then years later took all that knowledge and went hard just making music. Have to respect him for that. You dont have to go crazy or sit back and chill to achieve your dreams. You have to keep your eyes and ears open at all times and then go hard when your ready to apply what you learned.
Future is the goat. He inspired me to go hard in every aspect in my life. Keeping it g with flavor everytime. For ever a freebandz fan
Great documentary, very insightful and concise
he is tripping when he was talking about blood sweat and tears bc that song is really legendary and hits different
My Savages is the same theme and emotion-- overcoming hardships-- but done much more authentically and compellingly
Thank you for this, it gives a whole new perspective on his sound and journey.
“He’s been making music before I was born” Holy shit I’m getting old.
Oh yeah this about to be on everyone's recommended.
Incredible documentary 🔥
another amazing vid, one of my favourite channels on yt
