    Released: July 31, 2020

Pluto × Baby Pluto is a collaborative studio album by American rappers Future and Lil Uzi Vert.[2] It was released on November 13, 2020,[3] and was previewed through several trailers starting from July 2020. The title signifies the combination of both artists' nicknames: Future is referred to as Pluto, as expressed through his debut album Pluto (2012), while Lil Uzi Vert identifies as Baby Pluto, as expressed through the song "Baby Pluto" from Eternal Atake (2020). It is the second project released by Future in 2020, following High Off Life. It is also the third project released by Lil Uzi Vert in the year, following Eternal Atake and its deluxe reissue, notably after a lack of music released by Uzi between 2018 and 2019.

A deluxe version of the album was released on November 17, 2020, four days following the release of Pluto x Baby Pluto.
