Camila Cabello did a recent interview appearance on Power 106 Los Angeles, where she opened up about how part of the “I Luv It” music video wasn’t entirely planned.
As Playboi Carti appears in the video for their collab, he had been running late and they decided to film in a gas station.
“Something happened with his plane, it was, like, this whole insane… chaos with the video,” Cabello shared. “He got there after the music video was actually wrapped, so we had to find a place to film his part of the video.”
“We ended up paying the guy that worked at the gas station to let it stay open for us,” she added. “So [Carti] got there and my mom had the… video screen and was low-key kinda directing. We had to beg the crew to stay.”
Thankfully, it all worked out, even if things were a bit hectic in the moment. Carti and Cabello got along really well. She wound up getting him on a song simply by sending him a DM on Instagram. “I said, ‘Hey, butterfly,” she pointed out in a separate interview for Apple Music. “And then he said, ‘CC,’ and then I said, ‘Carti.’ It was really cute.”
Check out Cabello discussing the “I Luv It” music video backstory, which starts around the 6-minute mark, above.
Very few artists are subject to as many bizarre news stories as Playboi Carti. A few weeks ago the Antagonist Tour that he announced last year was formally canceled. The tour was teased to include his entire Opium lineup with artists like Ken Carson and Destroy Lonely. After multiple delays fans that bought tickets got messages last month that the tour had been formally canceled. But in the wake of the cancelation he’s treated fans to some new material.
Last week, he teamed up with Camila Cabello for a new single that had fans divided. The track is called “I LUV IT” and features elements of hyperpop mixed with Camila’s usual style. Carti contributed a guest verse to the song that left a lot of fans watching more. He also only briefly appears in the music video because he reportedly arrived after they wrapped filming. He was on time for music video shoot for “FEIN!” with Travis Scott. The video dropped last week ahead of the pair’s performance on Saturday Night Live. Check out the newest artist he’s crossed paths with below.
In new photos making the rounds online, Playboi Carti and Nav are hanging out in the club. The pics come from earlier this week when the pair were spotted out together. The pair have appeared on two songs together. Most notably, Carti joined Offset on the song “Minute” from Nav and Metro Boomin’s collab album Perfect Timing. They also both appear on the Mustard song “Baguettes In The Face” from his 2019 album Perfect Ten.
Carti has dropped a number of singles on YouTube this year accompanied by DIY music videos. None of the tracks have made it to streaming yet, nor has Carti spoken much on when a new album could materialize. What do you think of Playboi Carti and Nav crossing paths during a night out? Do you want to see the two cross paths on a song again? Let us know in the comment section below.
About four months ago, Playboi Carti and pop star Camila Cabello of Fifth Harmony fame were making headlines. There were photos of the two of them in the studio together, as well as a screenshot of the rapper on FaceTime with the hitmaker. Dating rumors were sparked when the “Magnolia” creator captioned the studio session Instagram story post saying, “baby girl.” Now, we know that they were cooking up a new song “I LUV IT” which is out now.
Cabello is no stranger to linking with hip-hop artists throughout her career. During her Fifth Harmony days, the radio was constantly bumping “Work from Home” with Ty Dolla $ign. “Worth It” with Kid Ink was also another party hit during that era. Of course, when she went solo, Camila put out “Havana” with Young Thug and “My Oh My” with DaBaby.
Listen To “I LUV IT” By Camila Cabello & Playboi Carti
Most saw those previous crossovers as successful. However, “I LUV IT” is not getting the reaction that Carti and Camila may have not been expecting. People are extremely mixed on it so far with some saying that this ruined Carti’s “generational run.” The deeper delivery makes its return to a fast-paced beat that just does not fit the lighter tone of the song. Additionally, while repetitive choruses can be done right, Camila’s “I love it” refrain just does not come off right. Finally, the Gucci Mane “Lemonade” post-chorus sample is out of place too. However, there are also a good deal of people who are enjoying it. Give it a shot with the video link above.
What are your thoughts on this brand-new single, “I LUV IT,” by Camila Cabello and Playboi Carti? Is this one of the oddest collaborations/crossovers of the year, why or why not? Do you see this song performing well, why or why not? Does this get you excited for Camila’s upcoming album? Should these two work together again?

Quotable Lyrics:
Supersonic (Yeah, ooh), in your orbit (Yeah, ah) And I’m bad (Uh), diabolic (Uh) Bottle rocket (Ooh), on the carpet (Yeah) Threw it back and he caught it I go soprano, baby, go down low And when he leads, I gotta follow (Ooh)
Camila Cabello has kicked off her new era. Today (March 27), the Cuban hitmaker has shared her new single, “I Luv It,” which features the elusive Playboi Carti.
Over a frenetic beat, Cabello finds herself in a state of infatuation, embracing young love. “Super twisted, sick addicted / Kiss me hard, like someday you’ll miss this / In your shower, in your power / Seein’ stars, oh my God,” she sings in one of the song’s verses.
The song also features a prominent sample of Gucci Mane‘s “Lemonade.”
“Certain things in our human realm do make me feel like I’m in outer space, and the very rare few times where I’ve had incredible chemistry with someone is one of them,” said Cabello in a statement. “Part of that cocktail is also the emotional drama between you and that person, and the chaos and butterflies and nerves and passion. It’s unsustainable and not peaceful and exhausting, but also, I LUV IT”
In the song’s accompanying video, Cabello and Carti make a thrilling escape, dodging obstacles like exploding cars, home invasions, and fires. But the two reunite in a Miami bodega, dancing their way through the delusions of love.

Popstar and former Fifth Harmony member Camila Cabello is entering a new era. Her last studio album Familia dropped back in 2022 sporting collaborations from artists like Ed Sheeran and Willow. But now she’s gearing up to release new material having shared previews of new music and teased potential song and album names in the past few months. In the process, she’s crossed paths with numerous fellow celebs and been subject to some dating rumors as a result.
The most substantial of those rumors started popping up back in December. That’s because she was spotted in Turks & Caicos enjoying her vacation alongside Drake. The pair spent some time riding around on jet skis and presumably getting up to numerous other vacation activities that the cameras didn’t catch. During a recent appearance on the Call Her Daddy podcast Cabello was asked about the vacation. “It was vacation plus some work,” she revealed, followed by a pretty cheeky wink at the host. She went on to assure everyone that she loves Drake, though it didn’t seem in a particularly romantic way. Check out the clip from her recent podcast appearance below.
Before the Drake story, Camila was connected to Rauw Alejandro following the Latin music star’s breakup with Rosalia. Afterwards she found herself connected to Playboi Carti. That started when a flirty video dropped of the pair in the studio together where Carti calls her “baby girl.” They doubled down a few days later sharing a Facetime call that made the rumors surrounding the pair even louder.
Recently some online have even tried to connect her to Miami Heat star Jimmy Butler. That’s because she popped up courtside at a recent Miami game and Butler was spotted wearing a shirt with a rumored title of her new song on it. What do you think of Camila Cabello’s response to the rumors about her and Drake spawning from a vacation last year? What do you think she’s implying when she says it was for both vacation and work? Let us know in the comment section below.
Towards the end of 2023, Camila Cabello and Drake sparked some dating rumors when they were seen together. As Daily Mail noted at the time, the two were spotted at Noah’s Ark Beach Club in Turks And Caicos in December. Cabello and Drake were apparently “jet-skiing together and having an intimate conversation.”
Now, though, Cabello herself has explained what was going on there.
Cabello is the guest on the upcoming March 6 episode of the popular Call Her Daddy podcast. In a teaser video shared yesterday (March 4), host Alexandra Cooper mentions that Cabello was “on a vacation with Drake.” Cabello’s initial response was an “oh gosh” before adding, “It was vacation plus some work.” Cabello then gives a wink in response to Cooper’s intrigued reaction. That’s all the teaser clip offers in terms of Drake, but perhaps there will be more to that conversation topic in the full episode.
Also in December 2023, Cabello suggested that she was releasing new music in 2024, so perhaps fans will get to hear a Cabello/Drake collaboration in the near future. What fans probably won’t get soon, though, is a Fifth Harmony reunion. There have been rumors about one lately, but subsequent reports have indicated all the talk is actually false.
Music fans love to speculate about artists’ relationships for some reason, and the latest dating rumor to arise has involved two truly unlikely candidates for pairing in rapper Playboi Carti and pop singer Camila Cabello. Of course, they have contributed their part to fueling these rumors, according to HipHopDX. Earlier this month, Carti posted a photo of himself and Cabello in the studio with the caption “Baby girl,” then posted another yesterday (Tuesday, December 26) of a screenshot she sent him while they were on a FaceTime call.
Fans have, of course, run away with a narrative, expressing amazement at the apparently dramatic shift in Cabello’s associations (she was previously linked to Shawn Mendes). However, they could just be working on a collaboration, as the singer has shown a fondness for looping in popular, unconventional rappers to spice up her pop hits in the past. A prime example would be her 2017 single “Havana,” which featured Young Thug (which apparently only happened because Gunna’s manager turned down the original collab request). Earlier this month, fans also speculated that she could be dating Drake after they spent time together on a boat.
Carti, of course, has been linked to some eyebrow-raising celebrities, himself. He shares a son with Australian rapper Iggy Azalea — which Iggy insinuates isn’t all it’s cracked up to be.
Given how long its been since Playboi Carti last released new music fans are dying for just about any news on what he’s up to. Over the weekend he appeared to be hitting the studio but somehow that may not even be the most exciting part. A screenshot from Carti in the studio is more than enough to get fans buzzing, but the picture he shared also included pop star and former Fifth Harmony member Camila Cabello. Cabello is no stranger to working with rappers as two of her biggest hits include “Havana” with Young Thug and “My Oh My” with DaBaby.
It isn’t clear exactly how much recording the pair got up to, but that isn’t what many fans were focusing on. In one picture shared of the two, Carti captions it “baby girl” sparking rumors about whether there could be more going on between them. Camila has been subject to dating rumors a few times this year. Most notably she was briefly rumored to be Latin star Rauw Alejandro’s new girl after his engagement to Rosalia was called off. Check out the picture of Playboi Carti and Camila Cabello in the studio together below.
Playboi Carti has been teasing new music quite a bit recently, leading fans to share their excitement that a new album could be on the way soon. Last week, he shared a new song called “Ur The Moon” to YouTube that saw him sounding very different from when fans last heard him. The track is yet to make it to any streaming platforms leading to debate about whether it’s an official release or single from a new album.
Carti also shared another song to YouTube called “2024.” The track caught on quickly with fans and sports production from Kanye West among numerous others. Those songs combined with a series of snippets he’s released in the past few weeks have fans speculating that a full album of new material is coming very soon. What do you think about Playboi Carti and his “baby girl” Camila Cabello hitting the studio together? Let us know in the comment section below.
Drake has had a busy few months touring and releasing his new album For All The Dogs. He’s prepared to take off on even more shows with J. Cole next year but in the meantime, he’s enjoying some relaxation in Turks & Caicos. While he probably has spent some time relaxing and taking in good vibes, he also took the chance to hone in some of his basketball skills. In some pictures and videos he shared to Instagram he’s hitting the basketball and tennis courts with some friends.
“All that time you spent trying to convince your followers you’re a leader could have went to something much realer,” Drake captioned the post in his typical advisory fashion. Unsurprisingly, fellow celebs rushed to the comments to get their jabs in at the rap superstar. NLE Choppa quickly pulled up to challenge his skills with a comment that simply read “guard me.” Plenty of sports bettors also took to the comments to share the bets they would place on Drizzy in an actual basketball game. Check out the post and the variety of fan reactions to it below.
Getting some reps in on the basketball court isn’t what most fans are talking about from Drake’s Turks & Caicos trip. He sparked a rush of new dating rumors earlier this week when he and Camila Cabello were spotted together. The pair were enjoying their vacation time renting some jet skis and going for a ride together.
After the release of For All The Dogs, Drake claimed that he was planning on taking a hiatus from releasing new music for a while. Before embarking on the absence he made sure to drop one more collection of new songs for fans. Scary Hours 3 saw Drizzy doubling down on some beefs he started on For All The Dogs. The EP also helped the original album return back to the top of the Billboard 200 nearly a month after its original release. What do you think of Drake hitting the basketball court in a new video? Let us know in the comments section below.
