Rapper and producer NAV has announced his new album, OMW2 REXDALE, and he's celebrated by dropping its first single. a collab with Metro Boomin called "Real Me."
"NAV and Metro Boomin reconnect, crafting an atmospheric pocket that feels like a world of its own," they say. "The accompanying Hidji-directed (Future, Latto, 21 Savage, Nas) video showcases the duo donned in XO chains and exquisite stylings, captured through stunning cinematography. “Real Me” marks their first collaboration since 'Calling' from the Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse soundtrack—a massive hit that has amassed over half a billion streams."
It's a strong choice of song to introduce the public to the project. The muted yet hard beat frames some mildly melancholy, certainly introspective vocals.
