Drake and Future perform during The Summer Sixteen Tour at AmericanAirlines Arena on Aug. 30, 2016 in Miami.
Though 2016 is coming to a close, Future shows no signs of slowing down his campaign of delivering music at an unprecedented rate.
Having dropped his fourth studio album, Evol, and two mixtapes, Purple Reign and Project E.T., the Atlanta rapper is preparing to gift the #FutureHive with yet another dose of his Dirty Sprite flow before the new year hits.
6 Reasons Drake and Future's Summer Sixteen Tour Was Not Just Lit, But Motivational
Earlier this week, producer Zaytoven shared that Beast Mode 16, the hotly-anticipated follow-up to 2015’s Beast Mode is finally finished. With many questions lingering about the project and what to expect from the rapper who has become a champion for album-quality mixtapes, Billboard caught up with Zaytoven on the red carpet of the BET Hip Hop Awards 2016 to discuss the forthcoming release.
“We should be dropping a single within two weeks,” he offered, continuing, “and it’s featuring Drake.”
Drake & Future to Release Joint Album 'What a Time to Be Alive'
This announcement comes as no surprise as Future is co-headlining the Summer Sixteen Tour with Drake and the two fused their musical talents on wax for the collaborative mixtape, What a Time to Be Alive, around this same time last year.
While there has yet to be a release date revealed for Beast Mode 16, Zaytoven assures that listeners will experience “mind-blowing music,” referring to the re-up as the inaugural mixtape on steroids.
