Future - Honest (2014)

THIS BEAT FROM AUSTRALIAN AND IM AN ALIEN

56 nights is my fav ep of all-time probably

man y'all got me excited to hear 56 Nights and it's kinda disappointing imo. too much migos flow not enough crooning.

trap niqqas is a jam, tho

rappers use 'rock star' so much but ive caught the 56 nights video now a few times on mtv jams and future is so rock star iconic in it i cant even

I love this track, nice balance of the 56 Nights style bangers with his nakedly emotional side/

feel like we need a separate future thread for everything post-honest

56 NIGHTS v BEAST MODE v MONSTER

So is there a new Future album coming out?

dirty sprite 2

available for preorder on itunes brand music store

Yikes; terrible name. And that's a full, physical release album? Is there even a single? Seems like this is being set up to tank

yeah who knows what an album is even these days def kinda weird to claim a part 2 of a mixtape is an album

on the other hand u cld take the best songs from 56 NIGHTS v BEAST MODE v MONSTER maybe master them up a lil and have a great album

I still gotta catch up on everything after Monster. I heard good buzz about some of them, esp 56 Nights, but after Monster I needed a break

Funny how Honest only came out last year but it already feels like a career ago

there's a lot of buzz on twitter but who knows how that translates

Hardly, this is the first time an album's release has lined up w/ peak buzz in what feels like years....

I guess I haven't been paying attention, but I'm not really seeing the buzz. At least in terms of radio play, he seems miles away from peak buzz

yeah this album is gonna do big numbers. the 2 biggest radio songs from his recent mixtapes ("Commas" and "Real Sisters") are on it and his fanbase is way more fervent than the "oh, he's really good at hooks" kind of casual embrace he had before.

Man I feel out of it. But good for him. I like that in 2015 going the J. Cole route (not a diss) could work for a guy like Future.

going the J. Cole route (not a diss)

what does this mean? (not being argumentative, just curious)

I think he means "announce an album people didn't know about a week or two ahead of release."

Sorry; could have been more clear. I also meant "make an appeal to an engaged fanbase rather than bank on singles that these days don't cleanly translate to album sales anyway"

"Commas" is a big hit dude

fuck up some commas yeah

haha, I am out of it—my bad. I guess I do hear "Commas" on radio/mixtapes/whatever, but I just kind of dismiss it b/c it doesn't sound like a hit to me. I enjoy some of Future's phrasing, but the beat is blah

nooooo cmon

i wrote a poem

listening to future
dissolving totally
arising as a being of pure dark emotion
batman?

this is the totally mood of commas and also trap n*ggas

'march madness' is probably the poppiest of the songs on the three mixtapes (the holy trinity as it were)

'real sisters' too xp to myself

all these tapes are full of oddly engaging songs that take time to reveal themselves

^otm ... you can find me upthread one month ago today expressing disappointment in 56 Nights ... now i can't stop listening to it

still think trap n***as is the cream of the crop, tho

guess i should check out Monster/Beastmode

they are both very good tho 56 nights is prob the purest distillation of the form

curious if hell go more pop/dynamic on the album or what

Honest is such a weird blip on the radar for him now. Imo if he'd just done some hardcore editing/resequencing before putting it out it'd hold up a lot better and his hot streak would seem even more *fire emoji*

to me march madness is more a perfect album track ... the 'hook' as it were is in the melodic intricacies of the beat meshing w/ his meaningfulcore lyrics/emoting...."Commas" feels like the biggest Single-single but it's also not a perfect iteration of what he sounds like now IMO...its success set the table for further artistic explorations but I don't think he's yet released the HIT that epitomizes his current sound

in some gucci flip flops

15. The Percocet & Stripper Joint 2:36

yeah that's the best one

crashed itunes im just honest

lol did it really? wow

listened to some of the itunes previews last night, def seems to be in keeping with the sound of the last three tapes. bout to rip into it now

it's really good
