Future has left a lot of people unhappy with the birthday message he penned to his son, prompting a number of social media users to suggest that the youngster’s stepfather Russell Wilson should ‘have him’ instead.
What Future Said
On Sunday, the Atlanta rapper, 40, took to X/Twitter to wish his son – also named Future – who he shares with ex-fiancée Ciara, a happy 10th birthday, writing: ‘Thank God for Baby Future. More life More blessings…I love you [to] infinity.
But fans of the Mask Off rapper, who’s alleged to have eight children with eight different women, turned to an Instagram post made by Future’s stepfather, Russell Wilson, as an example of a ‘better shoutout’ and a more acceptable father figure.
The proud stepdad, 35, who some have labelled baby Future’s ‘real father’, shared a sweet compilation of videos and photos from after Future’s birth up until recent days.
What Russell Said
Accompanying the video was a lengthy heartfelt caption that said: ‘Happy birthday Future! The big 10!! We are so proud of you and so grateful for you.
‘You are our biggest blessing. An amazing son! The best big brother!! An absolute baller! So kind and loving! Keep shining.
‘Keep loving. It is our greatest joy watching you grow into the young man God created you to be! I can’t believe it’s been 10 years! God is good!’
Concluding the sweet message were the words ‘We love you forever!’
The 12-year NFL veteran and Cincinnati, Ohio, native later jumped into the comments section of his wife’s birthday post to share more love for Future on his special day.
‘The BEST!!! We love you so much!’ he wrote. God’s love, anointing, and blessing is all over you!’ God First Always! Mom and Dad are so proud of you!’

Fans React
Eagle-eyed fans have compared the two posts, while some have mocked the rapper – real name Nayvadius DeMun Cash – for a perceived lack of effort in penning a birthday message to his son.

‘Awwwwww sperm donor with the birthday quote,’ criticized another.
Comparing details between the two posts, another asked: ‘Where’s the slideshow?’
Someone else quipped: ‘Was this supposed to be a happy birthday shoutout to his son??? This **** is tacky lol’.
