7 Best Moments From Future & Metro Boomin’s ‘We Trust You’ Tour Stop in NYC (2024)

• IMAX Movie Theater Visuals

  Metro Boomin and Future spared no expense with their IMAX movie theater screen worthy visuals. For those not close enough to the stage, fans still got an HD look at the designer wardrobe of the rapper-producer duo. The visuals also added to the stage’s aesthetic as it changed behind Metro during his set to a dark cave and flipped to pouring up some purple drank. Between the jumbotron screen and pyrotechnics, Metro and Future are taking their stage presence seriously while elevating their own art.

• Metro Boomin's Set Serves As Reminder of His Production Greatness

  Metro Boomin went back-to-back in topping the Billboard 200 earlier this year with his pair of joint albums alongside Future, but he takes his solo set to remind fans just how long he’s been at this as a hitmaker. From Migos’ “Bad and Boujee” to 21 Savage’s “Bank Account” and even iLoveMakonnen’s “Tuesday,” Metro’s versatility was on full display. The only Drake inclusion happened to be Certified Lover Boy’s “Knife Talk,” which saw Metro play Project Pat’s verse only. It’s a shame — due to their feud — all of the What A Time to Be Alive anthems are nowhere to be found.

• A New York City Showcase of Special Guests

  Before returning to the stage for their joint set, Metro and Future took a breather to let some of New York City’s own shine. It was a rapid fire of special guests from the Big Apple with Lola Brooke, Sleepy Hallow, Sheff G, Bay Swag, Cash Cobain and Fivio Foreign.

• A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie Invades the Concrete 'Jungle'

  A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie loves New York City and NYC loves him back. The Bronx native moves the needle as a pop from the audience reserved for superstars was heard throughout Barclays Center when A Boogie showed up to close out the NYC special guests set with his 2016 multi-platinum fan-favorite “Jungle.” The 28-year-old hosted his first NYC arena show at Madison Square Garden in June, and there’s clearly an appetite for another one in the Big Apple.

• "March Madness" Is Still the One

  It’s definitely not March, but the madness is here. Even nine years after landing as part of Future’s 56 Nights mixtape run in 2015, “March Madness” remains sonically fresh and causes chaos with fans spilling their drinks while singing every last word of Future’s questionable drug-fueled decisions on the Tarentino-produced anthem. It’s sandwiched in the midst of Pluto’s solo set, but a testament to how deep Future’s catalog and bag of hits really is.

• Future Shows Support for Young Thug: 'We Need to Free My Brother'

  The Freebandz x YSL bond will never be broken. Future took time during his set to salute Thug and support his Super Slimey partner’s fight for freedom as he remains behind bars. “We need to free my brother,” Pluto said before performing their polygamous BEAUTIFUL THUGGER GIRLS collab “Relationship.”

• Travis Scott Brings the Rage to Brooklyn

  Travis Scott is the king of his rap generation and heavy is the crown. Fans went ballistic when realizing that La Flame’s AutoTuned vocals on “Type sh*t” were actually coming from his live mic and not a recording. Any normal concert becomes a unique experience when Scott’s energy radiates throughout the venue, and his appearance cemented a memorable night for the Brooklyn faithful. The Houston native made the Barclays Center crew blackout the stage as he introduced the mosh pit rage of “FE!N” to close out his cameo. It’s just a taste of what’s to come for the Tri-State area when Scott returns for a show at Metlife Stadium in October.
