Logic’s Everybody is filed with hidden rhymes and messages for die-hards to interpret. One of those comes in the announcement of his next (and possibly last) album, Ultra 85.
In the 44-page booklet for the album’s limited edition version, Logic explains that one must decipher a letter he wrote by reading every eighth and fifth word.
Once decoded — as a fan on reddit proved — the message reads: “For the real fans reading this hidden message, my next album will be called Ultra 85, and it will be the conclusion to this saga.”

The album cover also features hidden clues about Ultra 85. The two billiard balls, for instance, are the 8 and the 5. A Rubik’s Cube in the artwork is also meant to highlight shapes that read: “U-8-5.”

Not only will it end this saga, which started in 2014 with Under Pressure and continued in 2015 with The Incredible True Story, but it may also mark the ending of Logic’s rap career.
“It’s going to be the story to end all stories, including my own,” he recently told Genius. “And then I’ma go fucking act and get this money. Shit. Or I’m just going to be a husband, take care of my puppies, have some fucking kids, and just enjoy life.”
Meanwhile, Logic’s latest album Everybody is set to debut at No. 1 on next week’s Billboard 200 with 225-240,000 equivalent album units.
