Future Rapper Early Life
Future began using his stage name while performing as one of the members of the musical collective The Dungeon Family, where he was nicknamed “The Future”. His first cousin, Rico Wade, a record producer and Dungeon Family member, encouraged him to sharpen his writing skills and pursue a career as a rapper. Future attended Columbia High School. He voices his praise of Wade’s musical influence and instruction, calling him the “mastermind” behind his sound.
He soon came under the wing of Atlanta’s own Rocko who signed him to his label A-1 Recordings. Since then his work ethic has driven him to his success. Future released a series of mixtapes including 1000, Dirty Sprite and True Story from 2010 to early 2011. The latter included “Tony Montana” the single, in reference to the Scarface film. During that time, he was also partnering with rapper Gucci Mane on their collaborative album Free Bricks and co-wrote YC’s single “Racks”. Future gained popularity after his songs were played by DJ Esco at Magic City, a strip club in Atlanta deemed “largely responsible for launching the careers of artists.”
Future Rapper Pluto And Honest
In September 2011, Future signed a major label recording contract with Epic Records fellow American rapper Rocko’s A1 Recordings, days before the release of his next mixtape, Streetz Calling. The XXL magazine described the mixtape as ranging from “simple and soundly executed boasts” to “futuristic drinking and drugging jams” to “tales of the grind”. A Pitchfork review remarked that on the mixtape Future comes “as close as anyone to perfecting this thread of ringtone pop, where singing and rapping are practically the same thing and conversing 100% through Auto-Tune doesn’t mean you still can’t talk about how you used to sell drugs. It would almost feel antiquated if Future weren’t amassing hits, or if he was not bringing some subtle new dimensions to the micro-genre.”
Though Future had told MTV that Streetz Calling would be his final mixtape prior to the release of his debut studio album, in January 2012, another mixtape, Astronaut Status, was released. Future was featured on the cover of Issue #77 of The FADER in December 2011. In April 2012, before his album being released . XXL’s Troy Mathews wrote, “While Astronaut Status is up and down and never really hits the highs like ‘Racks’, ‘Tony Montana’, and ‘Magic’ that fans have come to expect from Future, it’s apparent that Future is poised to continue the buzz of 2011 humming right along into 2012.” In early 2012, Future was selected to the annual XXL Freshmen list.
Future’s debut album Pluto, originally planned for January, was eventually released on April 17. The Album included remixes of “Tony Montana” featuring Drake and “Magic” featuring T.I.. According to Future, “‘Magic’ was the first record T.I. jumped on when he came outta jail. Like, T.I. was out of jail a day and he jumped straight on the ‘Magic’ record without me even knowing about it.” The track became Future’s first single to enter the Billboard Hot 100 chart. Other collaborators on the album are Trae Tha Truth, R. Kelly and Snoop Dogg. Pusha T released “Pain” featuring Future, on October 8, 2012, the first single from his upcoming debut album.
It was announced that Future will be repackaging his debut album Pluto on November 27, 2012 under the name Pluto 3D featuring 3 new songs and 2 remix songs including the remix for “Same Damn Time” featuring Diddy and Ludacris, as well as his newest street single featuring Kelly Rowland “Neva End (Remix)”.

The album was to be released in 2013. The album features Kanye West, Kelly Rowland, Rihanna, Ciara, Drake, Jeremih, Diplo, and André 3000, among others.
