Metro Boomin and Future (Pluto) just announced they'll be headed on a tour this year from July 30 to September 9 across venues in the United States and Canada. The tour, titled "We Trust You", will see the artists performing in major cities like Chicago, Nashville, Vancouver, and more.
The duo's tour comes on the heels of their recently released second collaborative album We Still Don't Trust You, released last Friday (Apr. 12), following up on We Don't Trust You which hit DSPs (Digital Streaming Platforms) last month.
The albums featured collaborations from many artists like Kendrick Lamar, J. Cole, A$AP Rocky, Rick Ross, Travis Scott, and more. We Don't Trust You is also credited with igniting the ongoing Rap Beef between Drake and several big names in the industry.
As Metro and Future continue to make waves in the Rap Game, we decided this would be the best time to look back at some of the duo's biggest collaborations over the years.
Nights Like This, and 9 other best Future and Metro Boomin records
The duo's first collaboration came in 2013, when Metro was 17 years old, on the track Karate Chop. Since then they have collaborated on several singles and projects which have gone on to become high charting records on Billboard.
1) Nights Like This
Nights Like This is the third track on Metro and Future's We Still Don't Trust You which was released to all DSPs on April 12, 2024. The song incorporates trap/dark pop elements into its production with an exceptional vocal performance from Pluto, where he expresses his longing for a stronger relationship with the woman.
2) Mask Off
Arguably one of Future's biggest hits to date is Mask Off from his 2017 self-titled album. Metro handled the production on this song crediting the ATL rapper with his highest charting solo record, with the track peaking at No.5 on the Billboard Hot 100 charts and racking up over a Billion streams on Spotify.
3) Thought It Was a Drought
Thought It Was a Drought is the opening single on Pluto's 2015 album titled DS2 (Deluxe) with Metro opening the track with transient bells that morph into a trap beat. This song is most notable and was heavily memed for Future's opening lines where he raps:
"I just f--ked your b---h in some Gucci flip flops / I just had some b---hes and I made 'em lip lock / I just took a p--- and I seen codeine coming out / We got purple Actavis, I thought it was a drought"
4) I Serve The Base
Looking for a psychedelic trap production diving into themes of Drug Abuse, Gang affiliations, and Excess, I Serve The Base is the song for you. This track was released alongside Thought It Was A Drought on DS2 (Deluxe), with Pluto performing a cultural classic whose unique production is something many are still trying to replicate to this day.
5) Purple Reign
Purple Reign is a track that appears toward the tail end of Future's sixteenth mixtape where Metro was credited as the co-producer alongside DJ Esco. The track is notable for how Pluto personifies Codiene as a woman he's attached to, alluding to his success being credited to this addiction. Metro's production embodies a sense of regret and emotional detachment, replicating the feeling of a toxic relationship.
6) We Still Don't Trust You
The opening track to Metro and Future's second collaboration album is the track We Still Don't Trust You, which also features The Weeknd whose addition to the record brings a dark, painful emotion on themes of Loyalty and Trust.
The song stands out for its impeccable production where Metro manages to mix trap with dark pop reminiscent of Weeknd's 2018 mixtape My Dear Melancholy.
7) Low Life
Low Life is another Future x The Weeknd collaboration that appeared on Pluto's 2016 album titled EVOL, with Metro Boomin handling the production. The record is memorable for not just the dark bassy composition, credited to Metro, but for the thematic elements both artists delve into which include Drugs, Strippers, Partying, Excess, Luxury, Violence, and Unfaithfulness.
8) Jumpman
Although Drake, Future, and Metro Boomin are all tied up in 2024's Rap Beef, all three have previously collaborated on the 2015 record Jumpman on Drizzy and Pluto's collaborative project titled What A Time To Be Alive. Notable for the repetitive use of "Jumpman" alluding to Michael Jordan's logo, with the word repeating over 30 times on the song, Jumpman is a standout track on all three artists' discography.
9) Wicked
Wicked is another song off of Pluto's 2016 album EVOL, with Metro Boomin co-producing the track alongside Southside to put together a record that brings out Future's vocal performance with an exceptional drum progression that makes it a perfect club anthem.
10) X
X is a track that appears on Metro Boomin and 21 Savage's first-ever collaboration album titled Savage Mode, which was released back in 2016, with Future being the only other artist featured on the entire project. From talking about womanizing to indulging in excess, the track, along with a fast-paced electric production, makes this record one to be remembered.
