Realer

YoungBoy Never Broke Again's eleventh solo mixtape, Realer, is a testament to the rapper's prolific output and unwavering dedication to his craft. Released on 20 December 2018 through Never Broke Again, LLC, and Atlantic Records, this 12-track album is a masterclass in hip-hop, featuring guest appearances from notable artists such as Lil Baby and Plies.

With a runtime of just 33 minutes, Realer is a concise and focused effort, eschewing the lengthy and sometimes repetitive nature of YoungBoy's other projects. The result is an album that is arguably his best work to date, with each track complementing the others to create a cohesive and engaging listening experience.

From the opening notes of 'Survivor' to the closing bars of 'I Came Thru', Realer is a showcase of YoungBoy Never Broke Again's skill and versatility as a rapper. The album's production, handled by a range of talented producers including Ben Billions and DJ Swift, is equally impressive, providing the perfect backdrop for YoungBoy's lyrical dexterity.

Realer marked the culmination of a busy and tumultuous year for YoungBoy Never Broke Again, who had released several mixtapes and EPs in the preceding months, as well as his studio album 'Until Death Call My Name'. Despite the challenges he faced, including a felony arrest, YoungBoy emerged as a national player in the hip-hop scene, and Realer is a testament to his perseverance and talent. With its release, YoungBoy Never Broke Again cemented his position as one of the most exciting and promising young rappers in the industry.
