The highly anticipated collaboration project from Future and Metro Boomin, We Don’t Trust You, has finally arrived and fans are excited about the 17-song album. Clocking in at around one hour, the project has created a lot of buzz in less than a day. Kendrick Lamar made waves with his shots at Drake and J. Cole on the track “Like That,” overshadowing Big Sean’s “Whole Time” freestyle. Despite the drama, Future and Metro Boomin’s project showcases a winning formula, even though it could have been stronger with fewer tracks.
Kendrick’s verse on “Like That” reignited the beef between him, Drake, and possibly Cole, with some pointed lyrics. Metro’s production on the track with Future is top-notch, as Kendrick asserts his dominance with clever wordplay. The tension between the three rappers seems to be heating up once again, especially after Kendrick’s bold statements.
Future and Metro’s chemistry is undeniable, with seamless collaboration throughout the album. Metro’s versatile production style complements Future’s vocals perfectly, showcasing their ability to tackle different moods and sounds. The high points of the project demonstrate their range and talent, proving that they make good music together.
The album features several standout guest appearances, including Rick Ross, Travis Scott, Playboi Carti, The Weeknd, and even a cameo from the late Prodigy. The album pays homage to Prodigy’s legacy by incorporating samples of his work, adding depth and nostalgia to the project.
Overall, We Don’t Trust You is a solid offering from Future and Metro Boomin, showcasing their talent and chemistry as collaborators. The album offers a variety of sounds and moods, with some memorable tracks and impressive guest features. Despite some minor criticisms, the project is a strong addition to both artists’ catalogs.
