A week or so ago, Future wrapped up his sprawling Honest tour. Presented by PUMA, it took him through 45 days of performing to noisy, riled-up crowds in dozens of cities and towns across the US (he even eventually ended up in Montego Bay for a massive dancehall party). Along the way, we posted some behind-the-scenes photos from his stops in Chicago, NYC, New Orleans and San Francisco. Now, freshly settled at home in Santa Monica, the Atlanta-bred warbler graciously took a few minutes to talk about the tour, hanging out with baby Future, and trying to catch a vibe in the studio.

I saw you were just in Jamaica for Sumfest. How was that? It was nice. I enjoyed myself out there. I love festivals. I’m getting into that this year. I didn’t get a chance to do a lot of festivals early on in my career. The vibe at Sumfest—it was super packed and humid—but the people were great. It was my first time performing in Jamaica. I got a great response from the crowd, I didn’t even expect for it to be like that ya know? I can’t wait to go and get back. They said they’re going to bring me [back] next year. I like dancehall and reggae. I like the melodies that they come up with, the meaning behind the songs—everything.

Would you ever consider making music like that? Yeah, of course. I was in talks of collaborating when I was over there with a few dancehall artists.

You just finished a pretty insane tour. Are you exhausted or what? I won’t say exhausted, but I’m most definitely tired. I’ve been on tour for 45 days and had to do a few dates right after the tour so it feels good to relax for just a second. You don’t even have time to get bored [on the road] because by the time you think about it, you’re traveling to the next city. It was back-to-back dates, we made sure we didn’t have too many days off so we could just get through it. There was so many cities that was wild, man—it was just a bunch of wild nights. There wasn't just one particular city that was better than anywhere else. It was a lot of energy the whole entire time.

Did any stops feel particularly special? Oh man, Texas. Anywhere in Texas stood out. It was very loud. It was loud in those places. Everywhere I went, the fans showed me so much love. Every single night— in North Carolina, Virginia, D.C., Baltimore—it was a lot of love everywhere that we went though. You know what I’m saying?
