Album Review: Future - High Off Life

Atlanta Legend Future has released his new 21 track album ‘High Off Life’. Future has dropped a massive project after his recent release of ‘Life is Good’ with Drake which will go down as one of 2020’s biggest rap anthems.

Future kicks off his new album ‘High Off Life’ in his usual fashion with bouncy and catchy trap songs. Future starts the project with “Trapped in the Sun” which is a boss hit that leaves you wanting to keep the first track on replay. “HiTek Tek” and “Touch the Sky” follow with Future flexing about his wealth and he spits as if he is unstoppable, Future is still a monster in the rap game and he doesn’t let anybody forget that.

Future reminds you about real trap music, Future tells real stories unlike a lot of new age rappers that come through and talk about how they “ came out the mud”. “Posted With My Demons” takes you back to Futures past all the way from the production to his flow on the best,  “Hard to Choose One” is the track that follows and Future is not scared to show you his demons in this track “Load up my rifle, I don’t go to bed”.

If you were to find a flaw in this project it is that it is long. The project carries to 70 minutes long which is a heavy duration for a trap album, the project is not at all bad but over 21 tracks it can become quite repetitive as Future doesn't really take the subject away from the topics of trapping, women and wealth. The album does seem especially long when you do have the “Life is Good” track with Drake and then the remix also with Da Baby and Lil Baby on one project.

Despite the length, “High Off Life” is a solid project from Future. Future took us on his journey to make it where he is now but also showed us that he doesn’t care how you view him and that he does what he wants when he wants and he makes a lot of cash while doing it. The 36 year old Atlanta hitmaker has just proved to the world that he doesn’t plan on slowing down at all.
