Over the years, Future’s collaborations have occasionally demonstrated how easy it is for him to be overshadowed. With Wrld on Drugs, however, the Freebandz founder has struck up a natural rapport with a younger trap rapper while creating a unique atmosphere.
It’s a good effort to try an retrieve Future from the Pluto of his own imagination, but too often his collaboration with the 19-year-old Chicago rapper plays to neither of their strengths.
Overall, Wrld on Drugs is a mixed bag. Juice Wrld pushes Future in interesting ways, while growing stylistically himself.
As with all of Future’s releases this year, WRLD on Drugs could have benefitted from more precise and careful craftsmanship.
Two of trap's biggest auto-crooners team up for a mixed bag of wavy, melodic bangers.
Despite the disappointing features, disconnected lyrical exchanges, and multiple fillers, a handful of songs on WRLD ON DRUGS prove that the duo can present a better effort together.
It was only a matter of time before the trap music heavyweights joined forces to make one of the most potentially exciting collaborative projects of the year. Unfortunately, they weren’t able to transform drugs into compelling subject matter on the aptly titled Wrld On Drugs.
