Tickets. Dates. What’s the story?Explore the tour About This Track
Future's 'Groupies' announces a return to excess with the bluntness of its title. The track moves through a series of boasts about wealth, chemical recreation, and casual conquest, each claim underlined by the repetition of its central refrain. The production sits somewhere between trap minimalism and the kind of syrupy, half-speed bounce that lets the voice become an instrument in itself, Future's delivery alternating between drawl and staccato emphasis as the mood demands. The song's emotional register is deliberately shallow. There is no pretence at depth; the lyrics trade in the transactional language of high-end consumption and physical appetite, with occasional moments where admiration for a particular woman's sexual skill edges toward something warmer before the song pulls back into its default posture of detachment. It is a record built on the premise that confidence and repetition can substitute for substance, and for much of its runtime, that premise holds.
"Groupies" 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.
