Future and Gunna are two of Atlanta’s biggest rappers, known for their impressive collaborative history, including hits like “Pushin’ P” and “Too Easy.” However, Gunna’s involvement in the Young Thug trial has strained relationships with several industry figures, and Future stands out as one of the most affected. The absence of their collaborations and the subtweets exchanged on social media have led fans to speculate about underlying tension. Recently, many believe Future has taken a subtle jab at Gunna in his new verse on the track “Allure.”
Future delivers a slick guest verse on the latest Ferg single “Allure,” which has been praised for its banger status. Fans have noticed that Future seems to be channeling his Mixtape Pluto energy, much to their delight. However, as listeners dissected the lyrics, a theory began to emerge that Future was aiming his bars at Gunna. While Gunna is not named directly, the implications in the lyrics are hard to ignore.
Future Allegedly References Gunna’s Death
In a particularly striking line, Future raps, “You done took a plea on my slime. Won’t be surprised if you ended up dead.” The term “slime” is widely understood to refer to Young Thug, but the latter part of the lyric raises eyebrows, suggesting Gunna could face dire consequences. This is arguably the most explicit diss from Future in recent memory; even in the first verse and chorus of “Like That,” which stirred up considerable buzz in 2024, his words were less direct. This shift points to Future’s growing frustration with Gunna, if these lyrics indeed target him.
Future has consistently expressed his loyalty to Young Thug. In a 2020 interview with Apple Music, he elaborated on their bond, stating, “That’s my twin. There’s me and then there’s him… When you mention Thug, you mention me. It’s like one.” Their collaborative effort on the 2017 album Super Slimey further cements this relationship. Notably, Future isn’t the only one close to Young Thug who has taken shots at Gunna; Young Thug’s children even shared a diss aimed at Gunna back in July, indicating that tensions run deep within their circle.
As the drama unfolds in the rap scene, fans will undoubtedly be keeping a close ear on Future’s future releases and the ongoing saga between these Atlanta titans. What are your thoughts on Future’s verse? Let us know!
