Metro Boomin is actively addressing critics of his latest mixtape on social media platforms, showcasing his engagement with fan feedback and criticism.
The acclaimed producer launched his new project, A Futuristic Summa, on Friday, but it has received mixed reactions, particularly from fans who were less than impressed with its direction.
In response to the backlash, Metro took to X, where he directly challenged the comments made by disappointed listeners: “A lot of y’all get no bitches and it shows. This mixtape is not for you if you don’t: like to twerk (or get twerked on), want to dance, want to have fun, party like a rockstar, or engage in surf & swag.”
Continuing his passionate defense, he stated, “If you never went out and competed with ya boys to see who could get the most numbers then you might wanna sit this one out.” This statement highlights his belief that the mixtape is aimed at those who embrace a lively and competitive social atmosphere.

He further elaborated on the type of experience he expects from his audience, saying: “If your homeboy never had to hold you up at a teen party while you were getting twerked on, then you might wanna sit this one out.” His comments underline the cultural context that he believes listeners should be familiar with to truly appreciate his work.
Metro continued to challenge his critics by stating: “If you never intentionally wore your clothes with the tags still on, then you might wanna sit this one out. If you started listening to rap music in 2017, then you might wanna sit this one out. If you never had to write a number down period, then you might wanna sit this one out.” These remarks reflect his expectations for listener engagement and cultural literacy.
The extensive mixtape features a diverse array of special guests, including prominent artists such as 2 Chainz, Future, Lil Baby, and Quavo, while also showcasing appearances from well-known figures like T.I. and Waka Flocka Flame. This collaboration indicates the mixtape’s wide-ranging appeal and the significant connections Metro Boomin has within the hip-hop community.
In addition to his musical endeavors, Metro recently shared his aspirations of producing entrance themes for WWE wrestlers, a lifelong ambition he expressed after being prominently featured during the company’s Bad Blood event last year. This showcases his versatility and ambition beyond traditional music production.
On X, he wrote: “Would love to produce some WWE entrance themes. It’s a lifelong goal of mine.” His enthusiasm for this new creative outlet demonstrates his willingness to explore various aspects of entertainment and music.
“When the work is there, you’re gonna know exactly what it is,” he said confidently. “I promise, when it’s presented, you’re gonna know exactly what it is. There’s not gonna be so much of a mystery around it.” This statement emphasizes his dedication to clarity and quality in his future projects.
