Playboi Carti Lollipop From “2024” Video Hits Auction Block

by

It is well-known at this point that Playboi Carti fans are built different. Overall, they will do pretty much anything to hear what the artist has in store. In fact, it seems like a new album is, in fact, on the horizon. Although we do not have a release date, there are three new singles that have been released in the last two weeks. This actually rare for Carti, who never drops singles. However, he is blessing his fans, and they are taking notice. Some believe this is the best work of his entire career.

Having said all of that, fans are being extremely weird as it pertains to the props from his recent music videos. For instance, we recently reported on how some grass from the “2024” video ended up hitting eBay. Now, however, a more unique item has ultimately hit the internet. Below, you can see that someone is trying to sell the lollipop that Carti had in his mouth in the “2024” video. There is no verification that this is the one, and we wonder how the fan even got it.

Playboi Carti Fans Are Different

“After seeing how eager fans are for a piece of Playboi Carti, me and my team decided to head to the location of the video ‘2024’ by Playboi Carti,” a description online showcases. “Shot at the Valero Gas station off 3500 Ashford Dunwoody in Brookhaven, Georgia. After spending 6 hours from 5:00am to 12:00pm hunting for any Playboi Carti’s belonging. My best friend Jeff found the famous Blue raspberry blow pop!! After shooting the video, it appears Carti decided to throw his lollipop near these bushes a few feet away.”

So far, it seems like some real bids are actually coming in. If anything, it shows us that this generation is doomed. Let us know your thoughts on all of this, in the comments section below.

One Of Lil Wayne’s Signature Hits Has Become His First Song To Be Certified Diamond

One of Lil Wayne‘s signature hits has become his first song to be certified Diamond by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). A Diamond certification denotes over 10 million units sold. Wayne’s 2008 hit “Lollipop” featuring Static Major reached that milestone today, thanks in large part to a digital resurgence in the past two years. It was actually certified both Gold and Platinum (8x) on January 23, 2020 (Certification is not automatic; for an award to be made, the record label must first request certification, which Cash Money and Republic Records did, 12 years after the song’s release).

“Lollipop” recently became the subject of some controversy when it was falsely reported that Wayne denied a request to sample the hit by Atlanta rapper Latto. The report — which came from a parody account — likely arose as a result of Latto’s ongoing feud with Lil Wayne labelmate Nicki Minaj. However, Latto herself debunked the rumor on Twitter, joking, “POV: u don’t even have a song sampling lollipop.”

Meanwhile, another Wayne smash from the same album (Tha Carter III) popped up earlier this week in a cringe-worthy TikTok posted by a Florida Police department. The Lee County Sheriff’s Office used “A Milli” to soundtrack a drug bust video on the app, leading to ridicule on Twitter.
