Future has shared the first track off an upcoming project that may or may not be called Evol—which, pronounced like "evil" and spelled like "love" backwards—is rumored to be a celebration of less than typical ways of loving. Here, the newly minted bachelor, sounding perhaps a tad defeated in moments, gives romance the cold shoulder in favor of the "Monster" life: I'm just living my life and I'ma get me some money, he sings, again and again. I don't be trusting these hoes, I just be smashing these hoes. The eerie, too-real record was co-produced by Metro Boomin and 808 Mafia's Southside. The mixtape is currently set for an October release, and the video for "Monster" is expected soon.
