In this weeks episode we talk with ARD's very own Jabair about the wide range of sounds that fall under the umbrella of "Future beats"! We talk about the movement, the bangers, and its key players as we try our best to define this vibe. We metion the quandry one is put in when a hot girl requests Russ, other rappers that have huge fanbases that we can't listen to, how much we love Young M.A., Elon Musk the producer, and we run through a bunch of new tunes. Also, DJ Major Taylor aka Ralph calls in for no good reason.
