After a lengthy wait, Logic has finally dropped off Ultra 85.
Clocking in at approximately an hour and 20 minutes, the 20-track effort features guest appearances from T Man The Wizard on “Mission Control,” DJ Drama on “Deja Vu,” Robert Ivory on “City in the Stars” and with ADÉ on “Ghost in the Machine,” Lucy Rose on “Interstellar” and Zelooperz on “ANTIDOTE.” Ultra 85 follows up last year’s College Park and serves as the accompanying soundtrack to Logic’s upcoming novel of the same name — a sci-fi novel set in 2115 that follows the story of pilots Quentin and Kai.
Ultra 85 is quite literally years in the making; it was first announced in 2017 as part of the special Everybody booklet and almost didn’t see a release when Logic briefly retired from rap several years ago. There’s also some speculation about whether the project will be his last rap album after Sam Spratt, the artist who created almost all of Logic’s album covers, revealed on X that “Logic will be taking off the rap hat and going full musical producer” to create the musical score for Spratt’s Luci project.
