Since Christmas Day of 2020, Playboi Carti has not put out a record. The Atlanta-raised rager has teased new songs on several occasions, but his most promising release appears to be his most recent.
During Friday, July 5th, at Splash! Festival, the reserved recording artist revealed something unexpected to her audience. “The CD is on its way, I assure you. Thus, it’s only fitting that I come here tonight and offer you a world premiere,” the rapper declared as he was ready to play a song that hadn’t been released.
The prospect of new songs from the inactive rapper brought cheers and screams from the crowd. It has been over four years since the self-proclaimed King Vamp released a full-length album, so a new one would be appreciated. But it appears that some fans are finding it difficult to believe what Carti says.
After a video of the performance became viral, one user on the platform that was formerly known as Twitter said, “Serial lier carti says the album is coming.” “Carti’s promises are worthless,” remarked a different admirer. Another said, “I’ll believe it after the fifth listen.”
After putting on incredible performances on Travis Scott’s “FE!N” and Ye & Ty Dolla $ign’s Billboard No. 1 single, “Carnival,” Playboi Carti has been gaining momentum gradually. He has been getting new songs via YouTube, Instagram, and an alter ego page over the past three months.
On February 5, 2024, around midnight, Carti made an appearance on Adin Ross’ livestream. Fans of “Opium” were disappointed because the experience wasn’t as lasting as they had imagined.
Prior to the show, Ross announced that he would present the Atlanta rapper a Ferrari and $2 million in cash. In addition, he intended to take advantage of the occasion to promote Carti’s upcoming record, which is anticipated to be released in 2024. To the surprise of nearly 500,000 people, the “BACKR00MS” artist arrived two hours late and disguised himself with a mask. Worse, he was only on camera for six minutes in a nearly pitch-black room.
