Future Unveils “California Girls” Video from No. 1 Album The Real Me
Future has officially released the music video for “California Girls,” one of the standout records from his chart-topping album, The Real Me.
The visual premiered on July 22, 2026, continuing the rollout of Future’s tenth studio album, which debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 following its release earlier this month.
Directed by Indiana420bitch, the video also features Travis Scott as creative director, with the Houston superstar making a brief cameo appearance.
A Standout Record from
The Real Me
“California Girls” appears as the fourth track on The Real Me, an album that sees Future take a different creative approach from his traditional trap sound.
Rather than relying on dark production, the song leans into melodic guitars and a smooth West Coast-inspired vibe. Meanwhile, Future delivers relaxed vocals while reflecting on luxury, travel and women from around the world.
As a result, “California Girls” quickly emerged as one of the album’s most talked-about records.
Travis Scott Helps Shape the Visual
Although Indiana420bitch directed the official video, Travis Scott played a major role behind the scenes as creative director.
The visual captures the song’s luxurious atmosphere with scenes featuring yachts, exotic cars, waterfront parties and designer fashion. Travis Scott also makes a brief appearance, adding another layer of star power to the release.
Together, the visuals bring the record’s glamorous lifestyle themes to life.
Built Around a Different Sound
“California Girls” was produced by AyeTM and Test, who crafted a lighter, melodic production built around emotional guitar melodies and relaxed rhythms.
Furthermore, the instrumental gives Future room to explore a smoother vocal performance while maintaining the confident style fans expect from the Atlanta rapper.
The production also reflects the broader direction of The Real Me, which balances trap influences with more melodic records.
A Solo Album That Topped the Charts
Released on July 10, 2026, The Real Me became Future’s tenth studio album and another milestone in his career.
The 22-track project contains no guest features, allowing Future to carry the entire album himself. However, it still features production from an elite group of hitmakers, including Pharrell Williams, Wheezy, Southside, ATL Jacob and DJ Spinz.
The album’s commercial success has further reinforced Future’s status as one of hip-hop’s most consistent chart-topping artists.
