Last week, Atlanta rap star Future talked to Miami producer DJ Khaled about his new deal with Apple Music.
“We’re putting more content out. We’re putting documentaries out. “We want to do short films and be able to have an outlet because we don’t have the time to make a whole movie. I want to have no edit [and] be able to put out short films. Just like the music – we get the chance to put it out when we want to put it out.” (Apple Music)
Footage of DJ Khaled hinting at a quick follow-up to Future’s EVOL album existing surfaced online this week.
Recently, Dre signed musician Anderson .Paak to his Aftermath Records team.
