Evol (stylized as EVOL) is the fourth studio album by American rapper Future. It was released on February 6, 2016, by A1 Recordings, Freebandz and Epic Records. It premiered on DJ Khaled's We The Best Radio debut on Beats 1. Evol follows five months after the collaborative mixtape, What a Time to Be Alive (2015), and a month after Purple Reign (2016). Production was handled by frequent collaborators Metro Boomin, Southside, TM88 and DJ Spinz, among others.

The album was supported by two singles: "Low Life" featuring The Weeknd and "Wicked". Evol received generally positive reviews from critics and debuted at number one on the Billboard 200. It also debuted at number one on Billboard's Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart.
