A few months later, Monster dropped and raced to double-platinum status. Both parties remained tight-lipped but it was understood, at the time, to be an amicable split. After the birth of their son, Ciara and Future split with competing theories emerging as to why. It became apparent he was frustrated by the scrutiny that comes with mainstream success and a high profile relationship. Future still has a Rolodex of A-listers across the Billboard spectrum, yet his features on his solo projects are sparse to nonexistent.īefore Monster was released, the Futurehive (collective noun for Future stans) had begun to worry that their Future would ever come home. In 2013 he gifted Beyoncé that ‘Can’t keep your eyes off my fatty, daddy I want you’ melody for ‘Drunk In Love’. He sent four or five demos her way, which means there’s three or four songs we haven’t heard. The hallmark song on Rih’s Unapologetic is ‘Loveeeeeee Song’, which Future co-wrote and appears on. Prior to the demise of his relationship with Ciara, Future had been headhunted by Justin Bieber, Miley Cyrus, and Rihanna. When Monster was released in 2014 it was a welcome return to the ‘old’ Future. The drought is over, even though it never really began. Future’s extensive body of work has ensured fans won’t die of thirst, but the release of two new albums summoned a monsoon. Then just a week later, while audiences were still processing Future, Hndrxx (pronounced ‘Hendrix’) was released, a move akin to Sweat/Suit era Nelly. Released on 17 February, Future went straight to the top of the Billboard charts. Murmurs of an impending project were confirmed when Future announced a 17 track self-titled album to coincide with his Nobody Safe tour. But an eight-month absence – a long time in Future’s world – created a vacuum. The post-Ciara era of 2014-2016 saw Future at his most prolific and hungry: Monster, Beast Mode, 56 Nights, Dirty Sprite 2, What A Time To Be Alive, EVOL and Purple Reign proved Future’s self-awareness of his work and vision, and signalled a return to his pre-fame era. Nearly eight months has passed since Future’s last release, Project ET: Esco Terrestrial, a project alongside longtime producer, collaborator, and fellow ATLien, DJ Esco.
