Future’s ‘The Real Me’ Album: All 22 Tracks Ranked

Future had the right to ask us “Are you not entertained?” a long time ago. His vast catalog of solo studio albums, mixtapes, and joint projects have been the soundtrack to our parties, hustles, relationships and more for almost 15 years. And while he is not quite the same white-hot act that he was from 2014 to 2017, he hasn’t shown any signs of regression that lesser acts with smaller offerings often naturally get to — as he demonstrated on his last proper solo LP, 2022’s Billboard 200-topping I Never Liked You.

With all of this time passed and content given, people still want to hear what Hendrix has to say to us — and he is committed to delivering. The Real Me coming this summer was perfectly timed: He just reunited with Drake two months ago on ICEMAN standout “Ran to Atlanta,” after taking a rare break following his trio of 2024 projects, We Don’t Trust You, We Still Don’t Trust You and Mixtape Pluto. 

The Real Me is all about him, and he firmly makes that statement by having zero guest appearances on the 22- track, 58-minute LP. While we have grown to love what the Atlanta legend has done with his best collaborators, his most notable records are often on his own, so this isn’t necessarily that risky a endeavor. 

What we get on The Real Me is hedonism galore, ego, affirmations, reflection, vulnerability and many other themes common to his music. What shines the most? Well, you’ll have to read Billboard’s track-by-track rankings below to see for yourself.
