Future To Appear On ‘Black Panther: Wakanda Forever’ Soundtrack

Future is heading to the Marvel Cinematic Universe! The ATL-bred rapper will be appearing on the soundtrack to the highly anticipated film Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.

Future is in great company as Tems, Burna Boy, and E-40 are also on the soundtrack along with Rihanna's triumphant return to music with the ballad "Lift Me Up."

"It felt right for us because motherhood is a massive theme in this movie," Wakanda Forever director Ryan Coogler told HipHopDX of working with RiRi. “And that was kind of timing up for her. In a similar way, when we were finishing the first film, Kendrick [Lamar] was kind of inheriting this crown. What was the chances of us making this movie and Rihanna becoming a mom?"

The soundtrack was executive produced by Ludwig Göransson who previously produced the Black Panther soundtrack. The project will be released via Roc Nation Records, Def Jam Recordings, and Hollywood Records.

Black Panther: Wakanda Forever is out November 11. Take a look at the full soundtrack below:

Although most of us have to wait until Nov. 11 to see the highly anticipated Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, Hollywood showed out last night at the premiere. Marvel has been teasing several trailers for the film and yesterday (Oct. 26) they confirmed that Rihanna return to music will be part of the film. Rihanna's "Lift Me Up" which is due to drop tomorrow, has led to even more excitement.

"Lift Me Up" was written by Tems, Oscar winner Ludwig Göransson, Rihanna, and Panther director Ryan Coogler. The track is RiRi's first solo single since 2016’s "Love on the Brain." The song is a tribute to the late Chadwick Boseman who played T'Challa in the first film.

"After speaking with Ryan and hearing his direction for the film and the song, I wanted to write something that portrays a warm embrace from all the people that I’ve lost in my life. I tried to imagine what it would feel like if I could sing to them now and express how much I miss them,” said Tems in a statement, per The Hollywood Reporter. "Rihanna has been an inspiration to me so hearing her convey this song is a great honor."

Marvel first teased Rihanna's potential involvement on their Instagram Wednesday (Oct. 26). In the clip, Wakanda Forever's "Forever" begins to fade into the background with the "R" remaining alongside the date "10-28-22" plastered below. Rihanna commented under the cryptic post with a heart emoji and the cross-arm emoji symbolizing Wakanda's greeting.

Rihanna later confirmed her involvement by reposting the video. "Lift Me Up" will be out Friday (Oct. 28).

As for the film, the latest trailer released shows Namor of the Talocan kingdom making his Marvel Cinematic debut and what fans presume to be Shuri taking on the mantle of her late brother.

Here are some moments captured on social media from the premiere's "purple carpet":
