It\u2019s hard to tell where the obsession with juxtaposition began, but it hit its peak during 2017\u2019s <em>Super Slimey<\/em> era. \u201cMink Flow\u201d featured spooky women dancing in a haunted mansion filled with snakes and skulls. \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.rollingstone.com\/music\/music-news\/watch-future-young-thug-in-horror-movie-themed-group-home-video-630266\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Group Home<\/a>\u201d was filled with a snowy, haunted mansion, but replaced the scantily clad women with mutant children. \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.rollingstone.com\/music\/music-news\/watch-future-young-thugs-harrowing-all-da-smoke-video-196841\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">All Da Smoke\u2019s<\/a>\u201d mansion was more metaphorical in nature, as orphans tried to escape the emotional prison of a group home through various crimes, which would\u2019ve been a better theme for the song off the same album called \u201cGroup Home.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Spike Jordan and Sebastian Sdaigui visual brings the entire trend back to basics. According to Epic\u2019s press release, the sad kid watching television at the beginning of the video is Future\u2019s younger self sitting in a trap house. It isn\u2019t long before he\u2019s transported to a mansion, which comes equipped with one dancing ballerina, a passed out ballerina, a stripper, one tarantula, a jewelry appraiser and choreographed dance routines. Also, it snows inside, which seems like it\u2019d damage the value of the mansion. The next Future era is shaping up to be just as weird as his last.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rollingstone.com\/music\/music-news\/futures-crushed-up-new-album-documentary-775097\/\" target=\"_blank\">via:: Rolling Stone<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The first month of 2019 will belong, apparently, to Future.
