Three years later: is DS2 by Future a classic?

[WMG the 2nd]

Following his run of incredible mixtapes including beast mode and 56 nights and slew of street singles like arguably the greatest dog of his catalogue and of the 2010s with March madness, future capped off his run with “ds2” also known as Dirty Sprite 2 but legally had to abbreviate the name to avoid litigation from the soda company. Singles included “Where ya at” with Drake which was a smash hit. The deluxe version included “fukk up some commas” which was a heavy hitter alongside “trap nikkas” which was one of the hardest street singles of that time period.
It went number 1 with 150k album sales with 130 being hard copy and digital sales.
