- It is Drake's second track with Future this year and his first with Travis Scott since 'Meltdown' in 2023, per Pitchfork.

As of Nov. 7, 2026, Future has a new single out with Drake, Travis Scott and Florida rapper Loe Shimmy. "Ya Hit" arrived as a surprise drop on streaming services on Friday, Nov. 6, according to Billboard, and Pitchfork describes it as the first official song from a forthcoming album. The album's title, release date and track list have not been announced.

Here is what is confirmed about the song, who is on it and what the critics said first.

## Who is on Future's "Ya Hit"?

Four voices share the track. Loe Shimmy handles the chorus, according to Rolling Stone and Billboard, before Future raps the first verse. Travis Scott has a verse, and Drake appears with ad-libs from Sexyy Red behind him, per Billboard and XXL. ATL Jacob produced the song, and Stereogum credits London Cyr as a co-producer. It is out now on Freebandz and Epic Records.

Rolling Stone says Future announced the single earlier this week without naming Drake or Scott, and called the group "the Avengers" in an Instagram caption. XXL reports he previewed the song last month at a party in New York with Scott, Loe Shimmy and Cash Cobain.

Apple Music lists it as a single of about three minutes. The lyrics quoted by Rolling Stone and Billboard contain explicit language.

## Why does this Future and Drake collaboration matter?

It is the second time the two have worked together this year, according to Pitchfork, after "Ran to Atlanta" on Drake's album Iceman. It is also Drake's first track with Travis Scott since "Meltdown" in 2023, Pitchfork reports. XXL adds that Future and Drake went years without appearing on a song together after a rift that was widened in 2024 when Future and Metro Boomin released We Don't Trust You.

That history is the main reason a three-minute single is a bigger story than usual. Seeing all three rappers on one track is rare.

## What did critics say about "Ya Hit"?

Opinions are mixed, and they are tied to Future's last album. Rolling Stone's review of The Real Me said Future "can't avoid being symptomatic" of a mainstream rap industry that feels "artistically exhausted." Stereogum went further and called that album "messy and forgettable," but said "Ya Hit" is the kind of event-style posse cut that is rare these days. It also compared the delivery to Playboi Carti's chaotic goth-rap style and added that it has "no idea what's going on with that cover art."

The cover is a pen drawing of small standing figures and seated babies beside a large baby-like face in dark sunglasses. That is a description of the art, not a reading of what it means, and nobody involved has explained it.

One line from Drake's verse has already drawn attention. Billboard and Stereogum say it takes aim at an unnamed rival's album, and neither names who it is for. Treat any social-media guesses as rumor.

## What is the next Future album?

Nobody has said. Billboard reports he appears to be teasing another album, possibly titled Infinity, based on a post on his X account, but that is an inference by the outlet, not an announcement. Outlets also disagree on when The Real Me came out: Rolling Stone says August, Billboard and Stereogum say July. Billboard reports that it topped the Billboard 200.

## What is confirmed and what is not?

- Confirmed: "Ya Hit" was released Nov. 6 on Freebandz and Epic, featuring Drake, Travis Scott and Loe Shimmy.
- Confirmed: production by ATL Jacob, with London Cyr credited by Stereogum.
- Reported, not announced: that it leads a new Future album, per Pitchfork and Billboard.
- Not announced: the album title, release date, track list and any music video.

## Our take

The reunion is the draw, and the song does not really need to be great to keep people talking. The star power here is as much about the lineup as the airtime, since reports describe Future and Loe Shimmy carrying most of the song. Whether this is a real preview of a stronger album than The Real Me is not something a single can settle. We would wait for the album announcement before drawing conclusions.
