Future and Metro Boomin‘s joint album, the March 22-released ‘We Don’t Trust You,‘ may be a shoo-in for the #1 spot on next week’s Billboard 200, but that warm reception doesn’t have the hitmakers resting on their laurels.

Evidence of that comes courtesy of the video treatment being gifted to two of the set’s fan favorites – ‘Type Sh*t’ and ‘Young Metro.’

“On camera, knocking jaws loose typе shit / I canceled her, kick hеr out the stu’ type sh-t,” raps Future in the former clip which features fellow chart-toppers Playboi Carti and Travis Scott.

“Evel Knievel, Pluto told his heaters, “Leave n–ga in the freezer” / I‘m big as a Beatle / F-ck on a diva, I’m hot than a fever,” Future relays in the latter clip which features The Weeknd.
