Future comin out strong video torrent
The romance informed much of the disarmingly direct emotional sentiment of Honest -and so, naturally, the later breakup had just as substantial an effect. For once, the change seemed less motivated by commercial calculation than by personal reasons: Only a months after that album’s announcement, he made public his engagement to R&B artist Ciara. Honest was notable for replacing another planned album: Future Hendrix. The sinewy “ I Be U ” follows a barely defined song structure as it recounts the willing dissolution of the self when it comes to living for another person, and the staggering “ Sh!t ” ports nothing less than pure punk anger and subversiveness into its unrelentingly assaultive thrust.įuture peeled away the more sensitive dimensions of his persona, all but abandoning his pop-hero bonafides for the trap villainy of his baser instincts. On “ T-Shirt,” the rapper cynically self-mythologizes through branding (“Strippers, money, weed / Young Future, I promote it!”), while on “ Honest ,” he rides a percolating, unresolved beat, crooning apparent half-truths about his love life. The bangers and the ballads alike were performed with an enviable melodic facility, as Future showed himself to be an artist less concerned with a verse/chorus structure than with the sheer magnetism of the hook.īy the time of 2014’s Honest, Future had proven not only that he was capable of demonstrating his craft across an entire record, but that he recognized the meta-potential in his formula’s limitations. For this artist, Auto-Tune can telegraph a drug-induced paranoia or woozy triumphalism it can be imbued with brokenness and heartbreak or it can signify the fluttering euphoria of falling in love.įuture’s 2012 studio debut, Pluto, found the surest elements of his carefully honed craft-peacocking braggadocio, fluidly expressive vocals, pop-savvy production-forming an appropriate dichotomy: barked displays of pure id (“Tony Montana,” “Same Damn Time” ) and heartrending male weepies (“Truth Gonna Hurt You,” “Turn on the Lights”). Crucial to that achievement was Auto-Tune, a technology familiar to the rap listener, but one which Future uses as a conduit for emotional expression. The sound of Future’s music capitalizes on hip-hop audiences’ growing acceptance of genre impurity, effectively dissolving what little border remained between rapping and singing. Future found an aesthetic in the updated trap form that Wade helped pioneer as one-third of OutKast production house Organized Noize, and he committed to a work ethic of near-constant commercial saturation, especially after signing to rapper Rodney “Rocko” Hill’s Atlanta-based A1 Recordings in 2011. Through his work with cousin Rico Wade and the rest of the Dungeon Family -the seat of Atlanta’s most forward-thinking hip-hop-Nayvadius DeMun Wilburn, known to most as rapper Future, forged a musical identity that progressed contemporary rap and R&B by connecting the influence of regional movements with that of growing national trends.
