Behind-The-Scenes Of Future’s XXL Cover Shoot
As 2015 winds down, Future continues his victory lap, following the release of his What a Time To Be Alive album with Drake just three days ago. In the fall issue of XXL Magazine, the Atlanta rapper is featured in his first ever solo cover for the brand to promote his FreeBandz Empire.
Throughout the clip above, Future opens up on past scheduling issues to record projects and not wanting to rub internal heads the wrong way in swallowing his pride. Hendrix also touched on how he distanced himself from getting in the middle of the Drake and Meek Mill feud over the summer, but still kept close ties with both artist.
Take a look at his behind-the-scenes shoot above and an excerpt from the interview below.
ON HIS FRIENDSHIPS WITH MEEK MILL AND DRAKE
“On some real shit, I love Meek. And the Drake situation, I feel like genuinely we’ve been building a great relationship over these years. We got history together. We went on a few tours together so it was like, publicly, some things was said and it was took out of context. And even with the situation coming out, we put it all behind us, went on a sold out tour and we built from that and I feel like it’s genuine, it’s authentic and we built trust between each other. So with trust it’s just bringing us closer because in this industry, as you get bigger, I feel like you lose trust for everyone around you. You feel like the people you come in contact with, you can’t trust them. So I feel like it had to happen over years, that couldn’t happen over a few months.”
