Y'all delusional as hell if you think Future is better back then than now.:RussTales:

I bet I've listened to him longer than anyone on here. And he was still figuring out his sound back then. He didn't even know how to use autotune back then. He said that himself. His flows were still rough too. But Astronaut status and Welcome 2 Mollyworld are classics where I'm from

That roughness is what made him great tho. The music is still good but ain't raw like it was before.

The days when this song was in major rotation in every club in Atlanta >>>>

Pre DS2 Future was doper to me.

Exactly!

Songs like Magic,Turn on the lights, Same damn time had a rawness and flow,that just isn't there today

Still a good artist tho

Y'all tripping if y'all think he got better
Flow wise and lyrically he got much more better what are you talking about

Is Old Town was dope and his clothes were definitely different and a little more experimental but he has gotten so much better the monster mixtape proves that

Codeine crazy and hardly and dirty sprite 2 and March Madness and my Savages are legendary

Flow wise yes he did

Lyrically no

He got songs on mixtapes such as On 2 us,Spazz on y'all,Itchin that's classics too just wasn't many people listening to him like they do now

Yeah I prefer his older shyt too...There might not be that huge of a difference with his music then and now but you can obviously hear the hunger, conviction and ambition he once had decaying now. That's why I laugh and cringe when I hear people say Mask Off is the best song Future ever made. I honestly don't even think its top 10 or 20 from him. I don't care if its his biggest record to date. Those two albums he dropped back to back was by far his worst material. I thought Honest was very slept on because it came out during when Rich Homie Quan, Young Thug and the Migos were gaining more attention than him.

Old Future was alot more creative, free, energetic.I liked how he utilized the autotune and used his voice. Its like on songs he makes currently, his voice sounds too monotone. He sounds bored and unmotivated and seem to be running out of shyt to say. His flow did get stronger and tighter, but lyrically he's gotten weaker.

Maybe its also due to the fact that Astronaut Status played a significant part of my life when I used to go kick it with my friends, get drunk then high tail to the club and get on some bishes. Those were great times.


Compare these








to these






:francis: Its just not the same....He still makes decent music, but I don't get excited for his mixtapes/albums anymore:yeshrug:
