Social media users teased Future by comparing him to Russell Wilson, the stepfather of the rapper’s son Future Zahir Wilburn. Fans joked about the hitmaker writing a relatively simple message for his son’s 10th birthday since Wilson penned a more elaborate post on Sunday (May 19).
“Thank god for Baby Future,” the Epic Records artist wrote on X (formerly known as Twitter). “More life More blessings…I love u infinity.”
Future’s replies were filled with people taunting him over his involvement in his son’s life. The public seemed much more impressed by Wilson’s birthday celebration.
“Happy Bday Future!” Wilson wrote. “The big 10!! We are so proud of you & so grateful for you. You are our biggest blessing. An amazing son! The best big brother!! An absolute baller! So kind and loving! Keep shining. Keep loving. It is our greatest joy watching you grow into the young man God created you to be! I can’t believe it’s been 10 years! God is good! We love you forever!!! @Ciara.”

Wilson married Ciara, the mother of Future’s namesake. The Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback’s relationship with Ciara – and her son – drew the ire of Future. Last year, the Freebandz founder dissed Wilson on the Quavo collaboration “Turn Yo Clic Up.”
“I got it out the field, f### Russell,” Future declared.
Wilson typically avoided responding to Future’s past insults. But the NFL star appeared to fire back at “Turn Yo Clic Up” by posting a photo with his stepson.
“Best part of the day #DadLife,” Wilson wrote.
