Subliminals on Twitter have long been a part of the rap game. Whole beefs have been fabricated from public opinion, based solely on the cryptic 140-character message of a artist or producer. Allow us to present, Exhibit A.
Future has spent the last calendar year doing nothing but releasing mixtapes. Not your typical here today, gone tomorrow collection of throwaway songs either. There are hits on these mixtapes. So, Metro Boomin took the time to credit his frequent collaborator and close friend, Future, for his dominance.
Everyday I wake up, new mixtapes are falling out of the sky.. I think we all know where the trend came from lol ?☕️ pic.twitter.com/dytHN7fubs

But artists have not put this much music out in years, now artists are dropping tapes every month. Everyone was holding their music b4 — Metro Boomin (@MetroBoomin) November 9, 2015
All I’m saying is, I wish that everyone would put out more quality music over the quantity. It’s a marathon, not a sprint.

Young Thug, an avid releaser of frequent mixtapes, and also a frequent Metro Boomin collaborator, took exception to the tweets, and had this to say to Metro.
