Future, Metro Boomin & The Weeknd Are War-Ready in Militant ‘Young Metro’ Video: Watch

Future and Metro Boomin are keeping the momentum rolling with their We Don’t Trust You joint album. The Atlanta duo recruited The Weeknd to deliver the militant music video to their “Young Metro” standout collab.

Directed by Hidji World and Omar Jones, the clip arrived Monday (March 25), and the trio is ready for war while holding down their concrete bunker.


Only those trusted are allowed access into the fort and Future made sure to bring a few beautiful women with him. One of the girls gets in her gymnastics bag while another develops superhuman strength to bench press Metro’s armored Tesla Cybertrunk.

“I got these regular h–s, I got superstar h–s takin’ pictures of me like the feds/ Check out my video, lil’ bitch, that’s silly, h-e/ Got me with a mill’ in jewelry in the bed,” Pluto raps.

The Weeknd gets the call to show up mid-way to accompany his ominous croon on “Young Metro.” Rocking all-black and a bandana to cover his nose and mouth, Abel displays the same vexed anger as his controversial Tedros character from HBO’s The Idol, which had the plug pulled after one season.

The crew adds Don Toliver and they congregate for another meeting deep into the night to plan an attack before the clip comes to a close.

We Don’t Trust You arrived on Friday (March 22) to much fanfare thanks in part to a nuclear assist from Kendrick Lamar on project standout “Like That.” Expect “Young Metro” to be among the tracks from the album invading the Billboard Hot 100 next week.

Watch the “Young Metro” video below.

Val Blavatnik to Oversee Warner Music Canada in New Role at Warner Music Group

Blavatnik will oversee Warner Music Canada as managing director of Warner Music North America, U.K. and Corporate Development at WMG. As part of a slew of executive announcements, Simon Robson will be leaving the company, while Alejandro Duque takes the top international role.

Val Blavatnik, the 28-year-old son of Warner Music Group majority owner and vice chairman Len Blavatnik, has been named managing director of Warner Music North America, U.K. and Corporate Development at the Warner Music Group, the company announced Friday (Sept. 25). In his new role the younger Blavatnik, who has held several roles at the company in recent years, and has been a board member since 2023, expects to “unify and drive business and operational strategy across these markets while guiding the company’s investment strategy to support growth,” according to a press release.

The Blavatnik announcement is part of a flurry of new executive announcements that CEO Robert Kyncl made this morning. In addition, Atlantic Music Group chairman/CEO Elliot Grainge will take on ADA in the U.S. as its new chairman, while Alejandro Duque, who has held the dual roles of president of Warner Latin and president of ADA since last July, has been named president of Warner Music International, adding Asia-Pacific and Europe, the Middle East and Africa under his oversight. (Duque will continue to oversee ADA outside the U.S.) Zach Friedman, currently COO at Atlantic Music Group, will add the title of vice chair of ADA U.S. to his resume.
