Metro Boomin insists his joint album with Future, We Don't Trust You, would have topped the Billboard charts regardless of the drama surrounding the release.

Metro Boomin Reacts to News of New Album and Song Going No. 1

On Monday (April 1), former XXL editor-in-chief Elliott Wilson shared a post on Instagram, which shows a Metro Boomin tweet where the producer is celebrating his joint album with Future, We Don't Trust You, debuting No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart. Metro commented under the post, "#VillainEra."

Some fans in the comment section began to imply the album would not have reached the heights it has if not for the drama with Drake and Kendrick Lamar dissing Drizzy and J. Cole on "Like That."

"Album was going #1 regardless," Metro added in a follow-up comment. "There was gonna be a #1 single regardless. Get off d**k that man don’t even know y’all."
