Drake recently opened up about the first time he heard Future’s music, sharing a moment of surprise and intrigue in a studio in Toronto.
Drake, speaking in the documentary Magic City: An American Fantasy, recalled his initial reaction to Future’s sound. He described it as something out of this world, wondering if Future was on a different planet, hinting at a certain vibe that Future’s music radiated.
The story only got more interesting as Drake recalled a conversation with Esco, who shared tales of how Future’s music found its way into the scene through Magic City, a legendary venue known for shaping musical tastes.
Drake and Future later collaborated closely, notably on the joint album What A Time To Be Alive. However, things seemed to cool down between the two, especially when Future and Metro Boomin’s track We Don’t Trust You featured several barbs aimed at Drake, the 6 God himself.
In a twist, Future addressed the rumored feud in an interview, claiming he was unaware of any beef with Drake. He seemed unfazed by the supposed tensions and pointed out he never engaged in rap battles, highlighting his detachment from the rumored rivalry.
Future felt more puzzled by the drama surrounding Kendrick Lamar’s line on ‘Like That,’ which many thought took shots at the Big Three—Drake, Kendrick, and J. Cole. Future argued he belonged in that conversation too and expressed his lingering confusion over why others seemed more upset than he was.
Despite the back-and-forth, Future maintained a casual attitude, joking about being overlooked and adding a touch of self-deprecating humor to the narrative. He seemed to express a resigned acceptance of the whole situation.
Through it all, the public witnessed a curious dynamic between two of hip-hop’s giants, starting from a moment of unexpected intrigue and leading to waves of speculation and lyrical exchanges.
The tale of Drake and Future is filled with unexpected turns and entertaining anecdotes, offering a glimpse into the unpredictable world of hip-hop collaborations.
