Following the release of I Never Liked You, Future has shared the video for “Wait for U” featuring Drake and Tems.

In this medieval love story directed by Director X titled “The Tale of the Toxic King” played by Future, he enlists Drake to play a Knight who has his own quest in finding his leading lady. When Future goes off to war and seemingly forgets about his Queen at home as he fraternizes with other women. The Queen sends him a note by messenger that reads “I doth findeth it funny…” After a couple of intense sword battles with a man who finds interest in his Queen he sends her back a letter writing “I am goodeth beloved. Enjoyeth.”

Also starring in the video is singer-songwriter Moxie Raia, model Cece Rose, producer ATL Jacob, rapper Strick, and comedian Trey Richards. Tems, featured on the song, does not appear in the music video.

The “Wait for U” music video comes on the heels of Future's release of the deluxe version of his I Never Liked You LP which included five new songs with features from Lil Baby, Lil Durk, 42 Dugg, and Babyface Ray, as well as Future’s Freebandz mate Young Scooter.

The Pluto creator’s previously released anti-Valentine's day single “Worst Day” also finds its home on the deluxe version of the album.
