Future Hits The Studio With Elton John: Hip-Hop’s Obsession With The Pop Idol
Future flies to London for a once in a lifetime recording session with Sir Elton John.
Which leads to the following odd-couple pairing. The Instagram post (below) is quite telling. Futureis a cunning person – come to think of it, Elton John is the only person standing in the way of a very random musical milestone. On Billboard’s watch, Future narrowly missed besting Elton John’s mark of 7 number one albums in the span of 3 years and some change.
“Future earned six No. 1 albums in just 3 years and 5 months, the quickest accumulation of no. 1s since Elton John in the 1970s,” writes Billboard Charts, via Twitter. “He scored seven No. 1s in 3 years and 3 months.”
So what’s the deal with this obsessive interest in luring Elton John out of semi-retirement. And on another note, who’s really gunning for this prospective Future x Elton collaboration. The Zone 6er said it himself, “me and my brother eltonjohn leaving the studio. Love is Love.” You’d have to think Future is gunning for his crown on some level.
