According to his long-time friend, Future is currently working on Dirty Sprite 3. The news was broken by Young Scooter, who took to Instagram with the cryptic message "#DIRTYSPRITE3" followed by three zipper face emojis. This year, Future has already released the single "Blackout ft. Joyner Lucas". Furthermore, the artist recently headlined the Future and Friends Tour.
Of course, Dirty Sprit 3 would be the third installment in the iconic rapper's Dirty Sprite series. That all began in 2011 with Future's mixtape, Dirty Sprite. That was followed by the studio album DS2 (Dirty Sprite 2) in 2015. While Dirty Sprite didn't chart, DS2 went three-times platinum and was the first of seven consecutive #1 albums for the rapper. Future currently jointly holds the record for most top 10 albums by a rap artist at 16.
The Summer Of Future
Young Scooter's Instagram post is the word that Future is working on a new album. The rapper's last release was 2022's I Never Liked You, which was certified platinum. Given the lack of details, we don't know who might feature Dirty Sprite 3. DS2 had just one featuring artist - Drake on "Where Ya At". Meanwhile, I Never Liked You featured Ye, Gunna and Yung Thug, Drake and Tems, EST Gee, Kodak Black, Babyface Ray, 42 Dugg and Lil Baby, Lil Durk, and Young Scooter.
