Metro Boomin has always been known for his dramatic style and his ability to influence music trends. With the release of his new mixtape, A Futuristic Summa, on the first of the month, he takes us back to early 2000s Atlanta, a time filled with lively parties, confidence, and memorable hits. However, the initial sales numbers tell a different story.
Recent projections from Kurrco suggest that “A FUTURISTIC SUMMA” will sell fewer than 22,000 album-equivalent units in its first week, which might put it just outside the Billboard 200’s top 20. This is surprising, given that the mixtape features well-known artists such as 2 Chainz, Lil Baby, and Future. Despite these numbers, Metro isn’t worried about the sales figures. He recently took to social media to respond to critics who might not understand the purpose of the mixtape. He stated that if you haven’t experienced certain moments, like fun times with friends at a party, then this project might not be for you.

Metro emphasized that A Futuristic Summa is designed for a specific audience: those who have a connection to hip-hop culture before 2017 and who enjoy the experiences of youth and friendship. This mixtape is a reflective look back at carefree summer nights and the vibrant atmosphere of Atlanta during its peak. Even if the sales don’t reflect its impact, “A FUTURISTIC SUMMA” resonates on a deeper level. Metro created this project not only for commercial success but also to celebrate the memories shared by a specific generation. Whether it makes big waves on the charts or not, Metro Boomin continues to shape the culture in his own unique way.
