Nayvadius DeMun Wilburn was born in Atlanta, the State of Georgia. His pseudonym came from the fact that members of the musical collective “The Dungeon Familyruen” called him “The Future”. During the period since 2010 to 2011, Future let out a series of mixtapes, including “1000”, “Dirty Sprite”, and “True Story”. The last from them included the single “Tony Montana” reminding about the feature film “Scarface”.
About Future
Before the Debut Album
Future signed the major-label-contract with Epic Records in 2011, some days before the release of his following mixtape, “Streetz Calling”. Though Future told MTV that “Streetz Calling” would be the last mixtape preceding the release of a debut studio album, in January 2012, one more mixtape was released - “Astronaut Statusruen”. In December 2011, Future appeared on the cover of the 77th issue of The Faderruen magazine.
Debut Album
His debut album “Pluto” was let out in 2012. It included remixes of the songs “Tony Montana” with the assistance of Drake, and “Magic” with T.I. In support of the album there were 5 singles — all from them got to U.S. Billboard Hot 100. Later, in November, the album was republished under the name “Pluto 3Druen”.
Other Works
In 2013, Future released a mixtape-compilation “F.B.G.: The Movie”. It was certified platinum for downloading in number of more than 250 000 copies. Future planned to call the second studio album “Future Hendrix” and include R&B music in it. The premiere of a lead single “Karate Chopruen” with the participation of Casino, took place on January 25, 2013, and the song was sent to urban-radio. But then, Future changed the name to “Honest”(2014). “DS2ruen”, the third album of the rapper, without the prevention, was let out in 2015 and reached the first line in Billboard 200. His most recent album is “EVOL”(2016).
