Pay up.

That’s what one of Future’s many ex-girlfriends is demanding in Miami-Dade County family court.

An Arizona woman named Layla Sanad recently hit the “Mask Off” singer with a paternity lawsuit claiming the artist born Nayvadius Wilburn is the father of her 9-year-old son.

Sanad, who keeps a low profile, wants to establish paternity and get retroactive child support for the boy, listed in court documents as “K.W.” Future is a part-time 305 resident, having bought a multimillion-dollar mansion on Allison Island in Miami Beach in 2022.

TMZ reports that the chart-topper already confirmed in an Arizona court he was the father of a boy named Kash and that he pays Sanad $3,500 a month. But apparently their deal is unofficial, and the single mom wants everything by the book.

As per the docket, a hearing on the matter is set for April 29. If a judge rules on this, Future could have an even bigger brood than he does now.

The 42-year-old hip-hopper almost has enough kids for a co-ed soccer team. Before being sued, the Atlanta native was publicly confirmed as siring seven biological children with seven different women, including a son with superstar Ciara.

The Miami Herald reached out to both parties’ lawyers in Miami (Future’s is David Hazouri and Sanad’s is Max Leinoff), but did not immediately hear back.
