Future released an album two weeks ago, which debuted at number one today on the Billboard 200. This past Friday he released a second, which is also expected to debut at number one on next week’s chart. Could he be going for the three-peat, though? That’s what some publications are reporting!

The rumor first began in an NPR article, which stated, “there are already unconfirmed reports that the Atlanta rapper and his label Epic will follow up this second release with a third album.” That’s pretty cut and dry, huh? Nothing to interpret there!
It was then fueled further in a press release from The Ellen Show about his upcoming appearance on the show. In it, they state:
“Plus, one of the biggest rappers in music, FUTURE is on the show today! He’ll be performing a song from his upcoming CD, “HNDRXX.” He has the #1 album in the country this week with “Future,” and is attempting to have three #1 albums in a row in three weeks – which will make him the first in history to do that! He’s bringing it all to Ellen!”
However, Future’s manager, Anthony Saleh, says that’s all FALSE. Welp, there’s that…
