"Jumpman" is a single by Canadian rapper Drake and American rapper Future from their collaborative mixtape What a Time to Be Alive (2015). The track was sent to rhythmic radio on November 10, 2015.[1]

It peaked at number 12 on the Billboard Hot 100 prior to being released as a single, becoming Future's highest-charting single as a lead artist.

Critical reception

Spin's Matthew Ramirez wrote, "'Jumpman' is the Young Thug song, complete with a percussive, non-sequitur refrain and Drake attempting to mimic Young Thug’s idiosyncrasies — the result isn’t embarrassing so much as labored, and makes you wish for the real thing."[2]

In the media

On the March 5, 2016 episode of Saturday Night Live, on which Future was the musical guest, he performed the song with host Jonah Hill during the show's opening monologue. Hill performed Drake's part. In April 2016, "Jumpman" was played during a medley at the 3rd iHeartRadio Music Awards.[3] Also in April, Apple released a commercial for Apple Music featuring Taylor Swift rapping along to the song. Following the premiere of the commercial, downloads of the song increased by 431%. [4]
