Published: Wednesday 8th Apr 2020 by Rashad

While rumors swirl Future is expecting his ninth child (first with girlfriend Lori Harvey), what we know for sure will soon be delivered his is eighth studio album, ‘Life is Good.’

Titled after its first single, the multi-Platinum Drake-assisted hit, the project would be his first official LP since ‘The WIZRD,’ which topped the Billboard 200 in January 2019.

Taking to ‘XXL’ magazine’s Spring 2020 issue to dish, look inside to see what nuggets the hit rapper (born Nayvadius Wilburn) shared about his forthcoming opus:

ON WHY HE TITLED THE ALBUM ‘LIFE IS GOOD’:

“It’s about life and being good and just enjoying life,” he said. “So many tragedies and catastrophes and everything is going on in the world. And you want to enjoy life, as long as you have it. Waking up, breathing, well, you want to be able to soak it all up and be appreciative for every moment on this earth, every moment that you’re living.”

ON WHAT ‘LIFE IS GOOD’ REPRESENTS:

“Life Is Good is where I am at. Mentally, life is good, it’s just a state of mind. It’s just about being, whatever is going on good or bad, life is good, but life is precious,” he said. “You only get one life, so you want to just make the most of it. Instead of complaining about certain things that you want to be, you know, you want everything to be perfect, but that’s not the situation so I want to make good for what I have going on. With me, I want to send a positive message through hard times for me or anyone else.”

ON THE ALBUM’S PURPOSE:

“This album right here defines me at a creative level. Going to the next level where you just going to the next level and always going outside the box, but still remaining true to my core fans and my core audience.”

ON WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT FROM HIS OTHER PROJECTS:

“It’s me trying new things. I want to remain true to self, but also true to my fans and just giving them a good project, a great project to be able to listen to, but also for different artists to be able to feed off of, create off of, come up with different ideas and just being at the forefront of just making a solid album, a solid, complete album. It’s just very important to me.”
