- The delay has only intensified excitement surrounding what Metro describes as his “boldest and most experimental” effort yet.
Although the complete tracklist is still a mystery, industry insiders and fan discussions are abuzz with speculation about possible collaborations with longtime associates such as 21 Savage, Travis Scott, and Future, who have earlier shaped the modern trap sound alongside Metro.
American producer Metro Boomin has revealed that his much-anticipated album/mixtape, A Futuristic Summa, is set to drop this Friday, August 1, 2025. Initially scheduled for late July, the release was pushed back to include a feature from Atlanta rap legend Future, further heightening fan excitement.
Curated by DJ Spinz, A Futuristic Summa includes 23 tracks and boasts 21 confirmed collaborations. Some of the most notable artists featured are Quavo, Lil Baby, 2 Chainz, T.I., Waka Flocka Flame, Young Dro, Travis Porter, and Rich Kidz.
Metro also shines a spotlight on emerging viral and regional talents, including Roscoe Dash, JMoney, BunnaB, YK Niece, and Rocko, effectively merging established Atlanta icons with new voices.
Metro Boomin characterises the mixtape as featuring an "all-new cast," consciously stepping away from his typical collaborators like 21 Savage and Young Thug to create a broader tribute to Atlanta’s rich hip-hop heritage.
The mixtape seeks to blend the nostalgic vibe of the city’s early 2010s club scene with Metro’s distinctive futuristic, cinematic sound.
Listeners have already gotten a preview of this fusion through the single Slide with Roscoe Dash, which captures classic ATL bounce infused with sleek, modern production.
Additionally, five guest features are yet to be revealed, offering the potential for surprise collaborations that could enhance the project.
In addition to its impressive tracklist, A Futuristic Summa serves as Metro’s tribute to Atlanta—showcasing both seasoned artists and emerging talents, while continuously pushing sonic frontiers.
By unifying these generations within one mixtape, Metro Boomin aims to create what could be a standout hip-hop release of the summer.
With only a few days remaining until its launch, fans and industry observers are eagerly anticipating whether A Futuristic Summa will fulfil its promise: celebrating Atlanta’s history while influencing its future.
