GQ said it, truthfully speaking. Atlanta rap heavyweight Future has all eyes on himself courtesy of a new GQ cover feature and getting the title of best rapper alive.

GQ calls Future the best rapper alive

Future Hendrix has been doing this a very long time and with the interview being conducted by hip-hop personality Elliott Wilson, there’s no question a little controversy and choice words are enough to spark a ton of attention - and clicks - for this new feature.

“Artistically, his impact can’t be denied. Especially not after eight solo albums, 19 solo mixtapes, one collaborative album, four collaborative mixtapes, two EPs, and one soundtrack (for 2018’s Superfly). Worldwide, he’s been streamed over 30 billion times and has, in the process, inspired an entire generation of rappers. Few artists are as prolific

When you survey the hip-hop landscape, no other artist has been as consistently excellent, or as influential, for as long as he has. He invented his own sound, which has since become the dominant style in rap. He has delivered hit after hit after hit. And he’s done it all on his own terms.

I’ll say it again: Future is the best rapper alive.” – GQ

“Few artists are as prolific. As widely imitated. As consistently excellent. Which is why it’s finally time to declare what’s been true for a while now... Future is the best rapper alive. Read the full story at the link in bio. Photographs by @gstyles. Styled by @mobolajidawodu.”
