Tickets. Dates. What’s the story?Explore the tour About This Track
Future builds 'Colossal' around a single, relentless mantra: the operation is expanding, the money is flowing, the hustle is absolute. The track moves with the momentum of its own boast, the chorus a locked-in loop of affirmation and appetite. Beneath it sits a portrait of street economics rendered without apology or metaphor; the language is direct, the transactions explicit, the moral framework absent. The verses pile detail on detail: the scale of the operation, the geography of the enterprise, the conditioning that drives it. Future moves between boast and confession with the same breath, admitting hunger whilst cataloguing the collateral damage of ambition. There is no distance between the speaker and the world he describes; he is both product and architect of it. The track doesn't interrogate this position. It simply occupies it, completely.
"Colossal" is a track by Future, from the album DS2 (Deluxe), released 17th July 2015. Full lyrics are available below.

A guide to the April 2024 exchange behind Kendrick Lamar’s ‘Euphoria’, from ‘Like That’ and J. Cole’s withdrawal to Drake’s ‘Taylor Made Freestyle’.

Rockstar has confirmed a dynamic score and an evolved in-game radio system for ‘Grand Theft Auto VI’, while keeping the mechanics under wraps.

The liquid-filled limited edition sold out in under an hour, with resale listings now reaching more than four times its £108.99 original price.

A 34-track soundtrack featuring Travis Scott, Yung Lean, Keith Richards and more will arrive alongside ‘Grand Theft Auto VI’ on 19th November.

A wave of GTA VI-styled social posts has prompted soundtrack speculation, but the publicly reported confirmation list is far shorter.

Spotify billboards using the same visual language as a wave of musician posts have prompted speculation about a 'GTA 6' campaign, though neither Spotify nor Rockstar has confirmed a partnership.
