Songs from Future’s album “DS2” have become a staple for any DJ who knows what’s good right now. The rapper’s rise to mainstream fame has even inspired a cultish following known as the #FutureHive, which has reportedly put the DJs at Seattle Seahawks practices and games in quite an awkward position.

You see, Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson has been dating ;pop star Ciara for the past few months, and Future ;just so happens to be her ex. The two even have a child ;together, Future Zahir Wilburn, ;who ;Ciara brought to a Seahawks training camp practice in August, to Future’s dismay.

This entire situation is understandably inconvenient for the team’s DJ, DV One. Seahawks — not named Russell Wilson — want to hear the hottest rapper on the planet, and DV One ;wants to play what the players and fans want to hear. But he also doesn’t want to make Ciara — and presumably Wilson — uncomfortable. ;

“It’s just that [Future] has a dope-ass album out right now, players like to hear it, it definitely gets you pumped up — even though it’s low-tempo, it’s still stuff that you want to hear,” DV One told Billboard. “And then you’ve got Ciara running up with little baby Future and she’s dating Russell so it’s like, ‘Oh f**k.'”

Especially considering, the, uh, public nature ;of Wilson and Ciara’s relationship ;(and what they do and don’t do when they’re alone) the situation could not be more uncomfortable for everyone involved. Even we feel a little weird about it.
