With little warning, rappers Future and Lil Uzi Vert‘s long-teased collaborative effort – ‘Pluto x Baby Pluto’ – launched to major streaming platforms on November 13.
Executive produced by DJ Esco, the project’s original carnation boasted 16 never-before-heard duets from the chart-toppers and was released just days ahead of an expanded deluxe edition that featured 8 more songs – including the previously released ‘Over Your Head’ and ‘Patek.’
Though initially locked in a tight battle with AC/DC for the refreshed Billboard 200 championship (as we reported here), the additional streams and sales provided by the rappers’ re-release did nothing to edge out the legendary rockers by the tracking week’s end.

Congrats? 🤷🏾♂️ I guess
Future and these collaborative albums man! I don’t think he records for the love of the art, I think he gets really high and goes in the booth and says whatever the hell comes to mind. He has more pointless songs than any other artist, xcept Nicki. I mean 14 albums in 8 years? That’s almost 2 albums a year since his career started. And I can only name 1 or 2 Future songs. See where I’m goin with this?
He gotta pay for that football team of kids he got
Them 2 combined sold that much, Megan is good..
