Songfacts®:

  • Here, Future, Playboi Carti, and Travis Scott flex like nobody's business - designer drip, diamond grills, enough cash to drown Scrooge McDuck. Future's popping bottles, Travis Scott's tripping, Playboi Carti's bragging. "Type S--t" is extravagance on blast, a wild ride through the superstar rapper lifestyle.
  • "Type S--t" is the lead single from Future and Metro Boomin's joint album We Don't Trust You. The project is a continuation of a musical legacy that dates back to "Karate Chop" in 2013. The pair sealed the deal with bangers like "Jumpman" with Drake (2015) and "Mask Off" (2017), both going 14x Platinum. Metro even turned a Future line, "If Young Metro don't trust you I'm gon' shoot you," into his signature tag.
  • Future and Travis Scott have a history of collaborations. Some notable examples include "3500" (2015), "Solitaires" (2020), and "Telekinesis" (2023) from their respective albums.

    While Playboi Carti and Future haven't collaborated as extensively as Future and Travis Scott, they have joined forces on tracks before. Examples include "Flex Up" from Lil Yachty's Lil Boat 3.5 album (2020) and "Teen X" from Carti's Whole Lotta Red album (2020).
  • Hip-hop photographer Gunner Stahl directed the "Type S" video, which captures the quartet on a rainy night out. Future and Metro Boomin kick off their verses in a strip club, then switch scenes to a vacant parking lot where they link up with Travis Scott and Playboi Carti.
