While working on it, Juice revealed that listening to Future’s music inspired him to try lean as a child. Last year, he joined up with the then-teenaged Chicago rapper Juice WRLD for a mixtape called WRLD on Drugs.
Today, he can’t believe how far and wide the influence of his codeine-laced creative streak carried. Lean is so imbued in his music and image that, according to a recent interview with Genius, he was worried to let fans know he’d quit, for fear it would be too big a shock. The drug is what lent Dirty Sprite its title (along with its blockbuster 2015 successor, DS2 ), and it has long functioned as both a muse and preoccupation for Future.
“I made it seem so cool,” Future says, sadly. Now, Nayvadius Wilburn is declaring the end of that chapter, split between relief and haunted by what, exactly, he wrought. The tape - and everything that came with it the drink, the drugs, the Future persona - spawned an era. It’s the eighth anniversary of Dirty Sprite, the 2011 mixtape that served as the foundation for an impossibly prolific run for the rapper.
Future lounges in a white office, in a cream coat, occasionally flashing his pearly white teeth.
