“Mask Off” is featured on the Atlanta rapper’s first album of 2017, titled FUTURE. However, it wasn’t the only album Future dropped. About a week after Future released his fifth album, he announced the release of his sixth album HNDRXX. The hypnotizing flute sampled in “Mask Off” comes from Tommy Butler’s “Prison Song”. Released in the 70’s the sampled song is from the “Selma” Album, A Musical Tribute to Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr, according to Genius.
