"Young Metro" is a song by American rapper Future,American record producer Metro Boomin,and Canadian singer the Weeknd. It was released through Freebandz (under the business name Wilburn Holding Co.),Boominati Worldwide,Epic Records,and Republic as the second single from Future and Metro's collaborative studio album, We Don't Trust You ,on March 25,2024. Its official music video was released on the same day. [1] The three artists wrote the song together and it was produced by Metro himself,Mike Dean,and David x Eli.
Michael Saponara of Billboard ranked "Young Metro" as the seventh best song on We Don't Trust You . Saponara wrote that Metro Boomin's dark production helps Future "indulge in his dark side and lean into his Evel Knievel impression". He notes that the Weeknd "[uses] his angelic vocals as an instrument adding to the cinematic backdrop,rather than delivering a more traditional collab like their pop-friendly hit 'Low Life'". [2]
Writing for Clash ,Robin Murray stated that the song is a "sub-zero tone" of "a note of paranoia,the chirruping snare trills emanating menacingly in the background". [3] HipHopDX 's Scott Glasher noted that the song contains "face-melting synths and rapid-fire hi-hats give Future and Abel [Tesfaye] space to get off some bars and subsequent croons". [4]
