In early 2016, Metro Boomin received widespread attention for his producer tag. Metro's most prominent and iconic tag "If Young Metro don't trust you i'm gon' shoot you" is performed by Future. The origin of the tag comes from the song "Right Now" by Uncle Murda, also produced by Metro Boomin. The tag was first noticeably recognized by fans in Drake's song, "Jumpman" from the collaborative mixtape What a Time to Be Alive. Metro Boomin has several other producer tags also featuring in his music. Some of these tags include, "Metro Boomin want some more, nigga!" (Young Thug), "Young Metro! Young Metro! Young Metro!" (Future), "Ayy Lil Metro on that beat" (Kodak Black), "Metro be boomin!" (Rich the Kid), and rarely "This beat is so, so Metro", a tag recorded with his voice at some point in 2009. Additionally, he often uses a subtle tag of an unknown/unspecified female's laugh, which can be heard at the start of some Metro-produced songs, such as X (by 21 Savage feat. Future).

The album will be self-titled and will be released sometime in 2015. Along with the announcement, Metro Thuggin released the collaborative track, "The Blanguage".

Metro Boomin first started traveling to Atlanta in the 11th grade to pursue a career in music.

Upon graduating high school, Metro Boomin moved to Atlanta to attend Morehouse College, studying Business Management. Ultimately however, he chose to take a hiatus from school after a semester, because the schedule demands of a full-time music career became too much to balance. Since, Metro has collaborated with artists including Gucci Mane, Nicki Minaj, Ludacris, Future, Juicy J, Yo Gotti, 21 Savage, Wiz Khalifa, Chief Keef, The Weeknd, YG, Young Jeezy, Meek Mill, Travis Scott, Ace Hood, S.A.M., Young Scooter, Young Thug, Rich Homie Quan, Trinidad James, Drake, Lana Del Rey, Lil Uzi Vert, Migos, DJ Khaled, ScHoolboy Q, Post Malone, NAV (rapper), Swae Lee, Gunna, Lil Wayne, and Kanye West.

Leland Tyler Wayne (born September 16, 1993), professionally known as Metro Boomin (also known as Young Metro or simply Metro), is an American record producer, record executive, songwriter, and DJ. Raised in St. Louis, Wayne began a production career while in high school and became known for his successful recordings with Atlanta hip hop and trap artists such as Future, 21 Savage, Gucci Mane, and Migos in the mid-2010s. In 2017, Forbes called him "easily one of the most in-demand hitmakers in the world," while Stereogum described him as "one of the most original, vivid, important voices in rap right now."

Leland Tyler Wayne was born on September 16, 1993, in St. Louis, Missouri, where he attended Parkway North High School. He has four siblings. After a brief stint playing bass guitar in his middle school band, he turned to making beats in the seventh grade at age 13. This happened when his mother bought him a laptop and he got a copy of the music production software FruityLoops. In high school, Metro churned out five beats a day. Initially, Metro wanted to rap, and started making beats so that he could have music to rap over. However, he eventually turned his full attention toward hip hop production. As he continued to hone his production skills, while still in high school, he began to utilize online social media platforms, such as Twitter, to network with more established rap artists as well as beat submissions for potential music placements.
