Earlier this year, Rihanna sang on "Nothing Is Promised," a single from the hitmaking Atlanta rap producer Mike Will Made-It. Future is credited as one of the song's writers, alongside Rihanna, Mike Will, and co-producer Pluss. Last night, Future's reference track for the song -- his demo version of what Rihanna would end up singing on the track -- leaked online. This morning, Future went ahead and posted it on his YouTube. And it sure sounds like Future wrote the whole song! Future's reference track sounds very much like a Future track, and it makes it obvious, if it wasn't already, that Rihanna is pretty much just singing a Future song on "Nothing Is Promised." Check out Future's reference track and the final version below.
