Considered a pioneer of the use of melody and auto-tune in modern trap music, the 39-year-old Future also is often regarded as one of the most influential rappers of his generation. He entered the music scene in the mid-2000s and has maintained a prolific output of mixtapes, albums, singles and collaborations since.

The "Future & Friends Tour - One Big Party" will be in support of his current album, “I Never Liked You.”

The LA Times wrote in 2016 that "Future's highly processed vocals suggest a man driven to bleary desperation by drugs or love or technology," stating that the Atlanta native's music "comes closest to conjuring the numbing overstimulation of our time."
