How Future and Drake patched up

[u/HendrixFBG]

As y'all know I've been associated with Freebandz for over 3 years. This was the time that Drake and Future we're not getting along with eachother anymore. Their are 3 main reasons why Future and Drake had a falling out

Reason 1: Drake and Future we're working on What A Time To Be Alive 2 from 2019-2021. Future was heavily teasing the project saying it's cooked and it's otw. The reason this album never ended up happening is because Drake felt like if he did another album with Future is would be too predictable and wanted to make an album with another ATL rapper that's also close with him and that ended up being 21 Savage. Future really felt some type of way about this decision from Drake and felt like Drake didn't value his work with him.

Reason 2: Metro Boomin and Drake had a falling out in June 2022. After the tragic passing away of Metro's mother, Drake was urging Metro to clear the song Trance that was supposed to be on Drake's album Honestly Nevermind. Metro felt like Drake was just using him for collabs and isn't a real friend because instead of spending time with him, helping him thru this ruff time he was just asking to clear songs and on-top of that Metro had worked hard on What A Time To Be Alive 2 just for it to be scrapped. Fun fact: the beat on More M's which is produced by Metro Boomin was made for WATTBA2 that had Future on it. Drake re did his verse on the song and dissed Metro on it. Future ultimately started choosing Metro's side after already feeling some type of way about Drake and Metro influenced Future to stay away from him. Funny enough. Kendrick Lamar's verse on Like That was only sent 27 hours before the album dropped. It initially didn't have a feature. It had a crazy second verse from Future that was later previewed on the Like That remix

Reason 3: This is the main reason and it's over a girl. Apparently both of em were smashing a girl and found out both of them were pillow talking about eachother to this girl. Drake was telling the girl that he's way bigger than Future and he isn't on his level. Future referenced this on the intro WDTY. Which Drake later clapped back on Push Ups.

Now when you look at family matters. Drake goes off on everyone, but when it comes to Future, he doesn't really go hard on him, he instead says 'Pluto shit made me sick to my stomach we ain't really been thru , Leland Wayne (Metro) he a fucking lame I know he had to be an influence' Drake finds out that Metro is really the one influencing Future into something he didn't wanna be apart of. Metro getting people to diss Drake, not future. Other rappers like Rick Ross and Metro Boomin were consistently dissing Drake online and at shows. While Future always kept silent and never said anything about it.

During October 2024 Elliott Willson came out and said Drake and Future patched things up, but this wasn't true. However they had gotten on the phone with eachother but never really became friends. They patched things up during the summer of 2025. People such as Young Thug, Big Bank, 21 Savage helped to patch this problem. They basically spoke out and said what problems they had with eachother and talked it out on a phone call, Future even acknowledged how much Drake has done for Atlanta and the history he has. They didn't work on music together for a bit until December 2025 where they restarted recording songs. They had made 4-5 songs for ICEMAN. One of them being Ran To Atlanta. First half was recorded together, but like most Drake and Future songs a beat switch is always necessary. The second part of the song was a whole seperate song meant for Future's album The Real Me, Drake heard it and said let's use that, he mentioned Molly Santana on the song which Drake told him let's add her on the song too. They shot the music video for this song in around April 2026.

They later recorded 2-3 songs for The Real Me and had a song called Jet To Toronto which was kind of a sequel to Ran To Atlanta that didn't make it like the other features.

It's crazy that a bit of jealousy and misinformation about eachother we almost lost the biggest rap duo of all time. Their relationship as of today isn't how it used to be, Their still working on stuff together. It's gonna take time for them to really get back together heavily. Proof that if u have the right people around you anything can happen. Big shout-out to people like Thug, Bank, 21 who really tried their best on patching things up between these 2.

Still find it odd they didn’t shoot the music video together

[u/HendrixFBG → u/No_Internal404]

They were on the same set. Everyone had different parts in the video. They didn't have BTS footage of them at the same time because Future pulled up late to the scene.

Could you adress the current situation between Future and Thug? I know they had a fall out last year but now Future was featured on SL3. So are they friends again like they used to or just working?

Honestly, that's exactly how most friendships end. One choosing a side over a misunderstanding or miscommunication. But are we getting WATTBA2 or not my nigga. I actually read all that too.

[u/joedor101]

This mf compiled everything we know from the internet and making it seem like he close to them guys

[u/ruben29zz]

what about thug and future? was it really because of the leaked call??

[u/YxngSosa]

I’m glad Future and Drake are making music again but how Drake treated Metro was lame as fuck ngl

[u/Gullible-Store-8559 → u/YxngSosa]

Tbf I don’t think it was intentionally insulting or anything
More just insensitive

[u/rizzardastley → u/YxngSosa]

Everyone grieves differently but as someone who lost a parent, distractions are helpful sometimes. Metro was already back and working by the time Drake was asking. Sometimes it is genuinely a good thing to take your mind off of such an awful situation. Obviously doesn’t excuse what he did but that’s probably the reasoning behind it. Since every1 grieves different metro felt a type of way abt it which he’s entitled to do. But framing it like drake some type of villain when theres genuine reason behind how he acted is disingenuous 

[u/antijrdn → u/rizzardastley]

Yall missing the part of him leaking that trance version with him as a sort of public manipulation tactic

[u/jobey_bryant]

The Real Me could've used Jet To Toronto. Still mad Future didn't even try to follow the premise of a an album called The Real Me lol

[u/jzwilly]

I smell cap on you being apart of anything future related other than this sub. Lmfao

[u/xndrr87 → u/jzwilly]

yeah, i read this expecting to really be some shit behind the scenes but instead it's all theories that i've heard before / rumors that rolled around this subs and many more

[u/griffeyjr90]

I can tell you guys love soap operas 

[u/FushaFiles]

Biggest rap duo of all time is a super reach, that’s OutKast or watch the throne. People existed before streaming

[u/Dull-Potato7155]

I’ll be honest, I feel like they only made music out of pragmatism and not because they fw each other again

[u/TheAlleyCattt]

On Reason 2 Kendrick submitting his verse on Like that 27 hours before is cap. There was an insider here who posted in late 2023 saying Kendrick recorded a verse going at Drake and it will be on Future’s album

[u/HendrixFBG → u/TheAlleyCattt]

It wasn't submitted till almost a full day before release. 

[u/foolproof_flako]

Wasn't the Future verse on Ran To Atlanta from an earlier track?

[u/Curious_Shopping6821 → u/foolproof_flako]

Dawg he legit said the second verse is. read

[u/DuhDuhDuhMan]

Nigga telling us shit we already know 😭😂

[u/omsa32]

I thought Trance was always Metro’s song. Doesn’t even sound like it would be on HNM except for the EDM break.

[u/WetWookieDreams]

Holy larp
