After teasing fans earlier this month with title drop, Grammy Award-winning artist Future has officially announced The Real Me, his highly anticipated tenth solo album. The new album is set to drop next month, but with today’s announcement also came the new single and video in “Radio.” The video can be found on Future’s YouTube channel.

Beginning with a catchy stuttering loop of drums and a vocal sample, Future’s verse begins shortly into the song. The beat properly kicks in as the rapper flows across the track, with the video cutting through vignettes of the artist in a variety of locations, including at a nighttime party. The lyrics have him speaking reflectively on his career and success, including the struggles and costs that come with being at the top of the game. The authentic topics of the track feel at home at an album titled The Real Me, giving a more personal look into Future’s perspective with the chorus emphasizing “this not for the radio.”

“Radio” is the first single released off The Real Me, and will be the 11th song on the album’s tracklist. The full tracklist of the album has yet to be released, but according to Apple Music fans can expect a total of 22 tracks on the album come it’s July 10th release.

Steven Taylor: Hello, I'm Steven! I'm a graduate of Seton Hall University. I majored in journalism, with a minor in Public Relations. I've always had a passion for the arts and creative fields. Writing especially is an area I've always found myself gravitating towards, between assignments in class, working for the school newspaper or just writing in my spare time. I love providing and hearing new perspectives. In addition to my studies and work in writing, I work part-time at after-school and summer programs for my local elementary school. I've been a part of these programs since I was in high school, and I've even been assigned to work one-to-one with children with special needs. I like to think that if I'm able to communicate well with children in the 2nd grade, then I can communicate well with most adults too!
