"Type Shit" is a song by American rapper Future, American record producer Metro Boomin, and fellow American rappers Travis Scott and Playboi Carti. It was sent to Italian radio airplay through Freebandz (under the business name Wilburn Holding Co.), Boominati Worldwide, Epic Records and Republic as the lead single from Future and Metro's collaborative studio album, We Don't Trust You, on March 22, 2024, along with the album.[1] Produced by Metro himself, the four artists wrote the song alongside additional producer D. Rich.

Background and composition

The song was first teased after Metro Boomin had taken to his Twitter to share an image of him mixing the track on January 3, 2024. On March 13, Carti would later post a snippet of the song to his Instagram story, tagging Future, Metro, and Travis.[2] [3] Soon after, Metro confirmed this after Tweeting the song's name with the album's hashtag.[4] [5] Later that week, on March 18, Future and Metro headlined at the Rolling Loud music festival in California where they, alongside Travis and Carti, performed the song in its entirety.[6]

Upon the release of the song, its official music video was released.[7]

Critical reception

Michael Saponara of Billboard ranked "Type Shit" as the fourth best song on We Don't Trust You. Saponara wrote that despite Future setting the tone on the track, Travis "invades the scene and makes it his own blockbuster". He notes that Travis "awakens all five senses", crediting his "smokey" vocals for the shift in the track's aesthetic.[8]

Writing for Clash, Robin Murray stated that the song is "awkward" and described it as "less a song and more a chant over a beat".[9] HipHopDXs Scott Glasher wrote that the song is a "true assembly of modern rap’s Avengers". Glasher wrote that Travis and Carti's "dystopian distorted vocals" on the "harrowing beat" can be described as "Medieval church bells drenched with thundering 808s".[10]
