Future Feat. Lil Wayne - Turn On The Lights (remix) Dirty -

Future 's remix of "Turn On The Lights" featuring Lil Wayne is a polarizing 2012 track that exemplifies the early "astronaut music" sound Future pioneered. While the original was a career-defining hit for Future and producer Mike WiLL Made-It, the addition of Lil Wayne's "dirty" verse split critics and fans between those who loved his return to Auto-Tune and those who felt his lyrics were uninspired.

: Over time, the song has been praised as "innovative" and ahead of its time, helping bridge the gap between Wayne's dominant era and Future's rise to the mainstream. Turn On the Lights (Remix) Lyrics — Future - Dork Future feat. Lil Wayne - Turn On The Lights (Remix) DIRTY

: Wayne uses pop culture references like Miley Cyrus and Somalians. A specific line, "I ain't got no worries, no Frank Ocean, I'm straight," drew significant attention for its play on words regarding Ocean's sexuality at the time. Future 's remix of "Turn On The Lights"

: Future maintains the original's atmospheric, ambient structure, with his Auto-Tuned vocals conveying a sense of longing that many felt was more emotive than Wayne's contribution. Critical & Fan Reception Turn On the Lights (Remix) Lyrics — Future

: Long-time fans of Wayne's "Auto-Tunechi" persona celebrated the track as a return to form for his mixtape style.

: Some reviewers felt Wayne lacked his usual high energy or that the original version had "more feeling" behind it. Critics at Exclaim! suggested that while the remix provides more "Weezy," the musical foundation remains identical to the original.
