Today, Metro Boomin has put in similar work to solidify himself as a young legend. Having already assembled a discography of countless hits, Young Metro has earned the trust of pivotal Atlanta rappers like Future, Gucci Mane, Migos, and Young Thug. With an ear for darker production and spooky, atmospheric soundscapes, Metro has breathed new life into the Dark Banger, making him one of the most revered producers of today's current age. 

Now, it would appear that generations have joined forces. Metro took to Instagram to share an image of himself, Chad Hugo, and Pharrell Williams engaging in a meeting of the minds, his caption speaking volumes on the dynamic. "Forever the student," he writes, a testament to his appreciation for his predecessors. Even if we don't get a collaboration out of this, it's still cool to see this passing of the torch.
