    It has been 4 years since Drake and Future came together to release their collaborative album ‘What A Time To Be Alive’. Fans have been waiting for a sequel to this album and shared their thoughts on social media.

    Drake and Future have entertained the idea, however nothing was confirmed. Producer ATL Jacob added more to the speculation by posting a photo on his Instagram story that displayed a folder that was labeled “FBG”. Fans automatically thought it stood for “FreeBandz Gang,” the same name of Future’s record label and rap crew.

    Jacob posted on his IG story to address the photo. The caption stated that the list of songs were beats from 2017 and not for an upcoming Drake and Future album.

    Whenever the album drops, fans are ready for it!
