Future has been raking in all the glory this summer, as he not only dropped a highly-successful album for fans, but he even teamed up with Drake for the ultimate collaborative project.

The 56 Nights vocalist is finally able to settle in his success, and has sat down for a conversation with XXL for their newest issue. He even includes one of his sons, Prince, in the photoshoot.

Future addresses a slew of topics in the interview, including the importance of his infamous Gucci flip-flops, as well as the Meek Mill and Drake beef.

On top of it all, the Atlanta native also makes some pretty controversial statements about Ciara, the mother of their son, believing that she was being purposefully spiteful towards him after Dirty Sprite 2 dropped.

Check out excerpts from the interview with Future below.

On those famous Gucci flip-flops from “Thought It Was A Drought:”

“My grandma was over the house and she went swimming in the swimming pool and she needed some shoes. She needed some flip flops and she like, ‘What you got?’ and the Gucci flip flops was sitting by the door. And she put my Gucci flip flops on and ain’t bring them back… Like, ‘You don’t even understand, those the Gucci flip flops that inspired the song that you wearing. And you my grandma and you wearing them. Ugh.’”

On the Meek Mill and Drake beef:

“On some real shit, I love Meek. And the Drake situation, I feel like genuinely we’ve been building a great relationship over these years. We got history together. We went on a few tours together so it was like, publicly, some things was said and it was took out of context. We put it all behind us, went on a sold-out tour and we built from that and I feel like it’s genuine, it’s authentic, and we built trust between each other.”

On co-parenting with Ciara:

“I want to judge the nannies that’s around my child. I don’t want to pay for a nanny that I never met, that I never got a chance to interview. That’s not the life I want for my child. I want to be involved 100 percent in all decisions made. This my flesh and blood. If I don’t want him to do something, there’s supposed to [be a] compromise or we supposed to talk about it. You not supposed to just go behind my back and do it. This is my son, too.”

On Russell Wilson being around baby Future, as well as CiCi allegedly being spiteful:

“I’m cool with him being around him but certain situations, we all in the public eye, you can’t move around with my son a certain kind of way, you know what I’m saying? I feel like a lot of moves are just made out of just being evil, basically. Because, you know, the success of my album and you still want to make certain moves to take the spotlight off me a little bit and shed light on a negative situation. Even if I didn’t care about it, the people have a way of looking at it. Why would you want to give these people an opinion on our kid? Why won’t we just let our child be a child?”
