This Friday, in Pittsburgh is the official pilot for Drake’s “Would You Like A Tour?” with Miguel. Atlanta rapper Future was originally scheduled to be part of the festivities with the two, but certain situations has caused Drizzy to remove his once friend from the card. If you remember back in 2011 when Future’s breakout single “Tony Montana” was set to get visuals with Drake, but that never happened when scheduling issues caused Drizzy not to appear at the shoot. Future was initially upset with the no show, but was thankful for Drake opening up the commercial door some to the mainstream being on the remix.
The two would eventually make up recording “Bitches Love Me” with Tunechi; but just last week, the feud would reignite with a Billboard reporter quoting Future on album comparisons from his Honest listening session saying,
Drake made an album that is full of hits but it doesn’t grab you. They’re not possessive; they don’t make you feel the way I do

NY Post’s Page Six is reporting today that two are in a legal feud, with Future suing Drake for over $1.5M. Drake fresh from his ending his beef with Chris Brown, would sadly be involved in a new war, this time legal with former friend. Future was immediately fired from the tour, but Drizzy tried to do what was right for their fans bringing him back to the tour. Sadly negotiations would fall apart with Drake’s camp demanding basically a pay cut, where Future was set to earn up to $40,000.
We’ll update any new information that surfaces in the coming days leading up to the big tour, whether Future returns or an imminent replacement announcement.
UPDATE: Hot 107.9 confirms future is back on the tour.
UPDATE: Future releases a statement about the tour, via VIBE.
“I am set to continue as planned with Drake and Miguel on the “Would You Like A Tour?” tour slated to begin on October 18th in Pittsburgh, PA. I’m looking forward to hitting the road this fall. Love4Life Honest.“
