Metro Boomin has revealed the tracklist for his new album Heroes & Villains — and as expected, it’s a star-studded affair.
The Grammy-winning producer interactively rolled out the tracklist on Twitter on Wednesday (November 30), where he encouraged his followers to use the hashtag “#HeroesandVillains” to discover the titles of the project’s songs, as well as their guest features.
The album clocks in at 15 songs and boasts appearances from usual suspects like Future, Travis Scott, 21 Savage, Young Thug and Gunna, as well as A$AP Rocky, The Weeknd, Chris Brown, Don Toliver, Young Nudy, John Legend and the late TakeOff.
21, who has released three full-length projects with Metro including 2016’s Savage Mode, 2017’s Without Warning alongside Offset and 2020’s Savage Mode II, makes three separate cameos on Heroes & Villains.

A$AP Rocky and Takeoff make for a dynamic combination, and it’s tragic that this may be the first and last time that fans get to hear them together.
Takeoff appears on the penultimate track of Heroes & Villains, and it’s already looking like one of the record’s standout moments. Titled after its infectious “Feel The Fire” sample, the soulful cut connects Take with an unlikely collaborator: A$AP Rocky. While they haven’t appeared on a track together before, Migos and A$AP Mob members have worked together previously. Quavo, for instance, appeared on the wavy A$AP Mob collaborative track “RAF” in 2017. Furthermore, A$AP Ferg tapped Migos for a feature on his Still Strivin’ mixtape during the same year.
Yet despite their lack of previous work together, A$AP Rocky and Takeoff showcase incredible chemistry on “Feel The Fiyaaah.” Rocky introduces the track with a hook and verse, but at the 1:20-mark, Takeoff immediately steals the show. With a voice and cadence that’s perfectly tailored to Metro Boomin’s soaring soul chop, Takeoff delivers an impressive swan song. His verse boasts robust alphabet-themed wordplay, and it’s oozing with the late rapper’s signature charisma.
