Reference 78[edit]

For whatever reason, reference 78 leads to http://www.example.org/ instead of https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/. Today is yesterday (talk) 00:01, 18 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Genres[edit]

Most of his music is from the 'trap' genre. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.24.192.107 (talk) 12:05, 19 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Haitian ancestry?[edit]

There is absolutely zero evidence of him being Haitian beyond the fact that he sort of sings like Wyclef Jean sometimes; none of the sources cited here contain the detail of his not moving to Atlanta until age 7. His name is not of French origin and he does not speak French, at least not in any of his music. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Chillstep89 (talk • contribs) 02:51, 13 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

You do not need to have a French last name to be Haitian. See: Charles Henri Baker, Charles Terres Weymann, Claudette Werleigh, Jean-Herbert Austin, Dadi Denis. French last names? Do all Americans have English last names? Savvyjack23 (talk) 06:25, 13 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

However, it turns out he is not of Haitian descent. He explains it on the The Breakfast Club Power 105.1 (07/16/2015) [1]. He said "I hang around with a bunch of Haitians all the time; everybody think(s) I'm Haitian." Savvyjack23 (talk) 04:21, 22 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Source for middle name[edit]

Is there a reliable source for the capitalization of the 'M' in his middle name? —  WikiWinters ☯ 韦安智   00:48, 15 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Magic City[edit]

This article does not yet include the text+link "Magic City", even though Magic City was partially - if not largely (source at The A.V. Club) - responsible for launching Future's career. There's a documentary Magic City where Future and one of his DJs (DJ Esco) talk about how Magic City launched Future's career, and at 10:38 (sources: at YouTube, at GQ) you can even see Future hold out his arms towards his pool (wealth) and hear him say "Thank you, Magic City." Not only that, Future paid homage to Magic City twice(!), both as a lead artist ("Magic", at YouTube) and as a featured artist ("Magic City Monday", at YouTube). That's still not all; for Future's 35th birthday, Magic City was refashioned as "Future City" (source at Consequence of Sound; image at Getty Images). Magic City has (obviously) hosted performances by Future (source at Page Six). So, even though it doesn't fully convey the thorough connection between the two subjects, maybe at the very least, in § career beginnings add something like "Future gained popularity because DJ Esco played Future's songs at Atlanta's Magic City strip club." Solid source that has a whole paragraph about this here at GQ India. Maybe use the The A.V. Club article as a second source. --77.173.90.33 (talk) 20:42, 27 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
