Playboi Carti Unveils Highly Anticipated Album “Music”
After a lengthy hiatus that extended beyond the usual midnight release anticipation, Playboi Carti has finally released his new album. Titled Music, this marks Carti’s third studio album and his first major project since the debut of Whole Lotta Red on Christmas Day in 2020.
The album features an impressive lineup, boasting 30 tracks that span over an hour and 17 minutes. Notable collaborations include heavyweights such as Kendrick Lamar, The Weeknd, Travis Scott, Future, Young Thug, and Lil Uzi Vert, showcasing Carti’s ability to unite some of the industry’s biggest names in hip-hop.
The inclusion of Young Thug reportedly contributed to the album’s delay, as Carti announced on X that he “HAD 2 MAKE SURE SLIMEEEE WAS ON DIS MF.” This behind-the-scenes glimpse highlights Carti’s dedication to quality and collaboration.
Since his breakthrough with the mixtape release in 2017, propelled by the smash hit “Magnolia,”which achieved triple platinum status, Carti has cemented his status as a leading figure in rap. Anticipation for Music has been building for years, and earlier this week, Carti confirmed the album’s impending arrival, much to the excitement of his passionate fanbase.
Given the momentum surrounding his return to music, Music is poised to make a significant impact on the charts. Although he has not released an album since 2020, Carti has remained active on the music scene, lending his talents to popular tracks like “Fein”by Travis Scott, “Type Shit”by Future and Metro Boomin, and “Carnival”by Kanye West alongside Ty Dolla $ign.
Fans can expect Carti to heavily promote his new album during his headlining performance at Rolling Loud Los Angeles this Saturday, where excitement is guaranteed as he showcases new material for the first time.
