       Nayvadius DeMun Wilburn aka Future, he is mostly known for his rap hits and his crazy good feature on songs. That’s the original Future, but there’s another Future that people know about. This Future gets you thinking about your ex and makes you realize, that Future just turn into Future Hendrix. Future Hendrix is the sad and emotional side of Future, but he also makes bangers. Future Hendrix has dropped 2 projects; one being a mixtape called “Purple Reign” and the other being an album called “HNDRXX”. Hopefully in the future (get in the Future jajaja) we’ll get to see more of Future Hendrix.

Lil yachty has been on the rise, he came on the 2016 XXL Freshmen Cover. People say he’s for the youth and different to say, he’s from the new era of music. Yachty is a versatile artist, it can be shown in his albums. He has a persona called Lil Boat when he sings on his songs. It’s crazy to think that artists switch into different personalities when it comes to different genres.

Nicki has been known for having alter egos, like Roman Zolanski and Martha Zolanski. She uses them in hate songs and love songs, depending on her mood. Artists like Nicki can rap/sing and use different personalities while doing it all solo. Her personas come out in random songs, but there’s a song she made called “Roman’s Revenge” and in the song she introduces both Zolanskis in the song, like one evil and another one good.
