Future has released "The Real Me," and the song "2018" is already garnering attention for its "la di da di da" flow.

Future's The Real Me has officially been released, and the fans are excited to tap into one of the biggest releases of the year. We are making our way through the tracklist, although one song is already standing out. That song is "2018," as Future utilizes the "la di da di da" flow from "King's Dead." One could even make the argument that he is going into 645AR mode with this one. Either way, this is an interesting track that is going to prove polarizing. Some fans will love it, and others will absolutely hate it.

Release Date: July 10, 2026

Genre: Hip-Hop

Album: The Real Me

Quotable Lyrics from 2018

She ate me good, get a brand-new Mercedes
