Playboi Carti Announced The ‘Antagonist Tour’ With Ken Carson, Destroy Lonely, And Homixide Gang

Fans waiting with bated breath for news of Playboi Carti’s next tour can finally exhale; the genre-bending, mystery-shrouded rapper has announced the dates for his upcoming Antagonist Tour. The Antagonist Tour is set to kick off in September, with Carti joined by his Opium Collective compadres Destroy Lonely, Homixide Gang, and Ken Carson. Pre-sale is set to begin on July 12 at noon local time, followed by the general sale on July 14 at noon. You can get more info here.

Carti last released a full-length album in 2020, Whole Lotta Red. Since then, he’s teased a few potential projects, including a follow-up album titled simply Music, a possible joint album with longtime collaborator Lil Uzi Vert, and another joint project with rising star YoungBoy Never Broke Again. Unfortunately, it also turned out he had one other thing in common with NBA YoungBoy: A pretty sh*tty disposition toward women. He was arrested in December last year for felony aggravated assault for allegedly choking his pregnant girlfriend.

Is Playboi Carti Going On Tour Soon?

While there still haven’t been any updates regarding Playboi Carti’s long-awaited follow-up to his 2020 album, Whole Lotta Red. The “Popular” rapper has bought some time thanks to his recent festival run.

After being led on a highway chase following his appearance at Summer Smash 2023, the Playboi Carti might have gotten all the confirmation he needed to hit the road on his own tour. So, that led fans to ask, even without a new album out, is Playboi Carti going to tour soon? Well, according to Our Generation Music, the answer is yes. The outlet tweeted a billboard image alleging Carti’s next tour is in the works. But he won’t be gracing the stage alone.

In the image, not only is Playboi Carti photographed, but fellow recording artists Destroy Lonely, Ken Carson, and Homixide Gang are also listed in what is being dubbed the Antagonist Tour. Although Carti has remained radio silent on social media, seemingly since his arrest for felony aggravated assault in 2022, his rumored tourmate, Homixide Gang, took to Twitter to seemingly confirm the rumor.

No further information on the supposed Antagonist Tour is known at this time. However, fans are presumably beginning to budget just in case it turns out to be true.

Lil Yachty Corrects DJ Akademiks Over Genre Change

by

Earlier this year Lil Yachty made one of the most interesting surprises in hip-hop this year by transcending the genre entirely. He surprised fans by dropping an entire rock album. Not just a regular rock album but one inspired by classic and psychedelic rock. While he’s commented plenty about what inspired him to make that shift, not everyone made the right connections. Recently DJ Akademics claimed that Playboi Carti was one of the inspirations for Lil Yachty to change his sound. That wouldn’t be completely unexpected as Carti reinvented his own sound in 2020 with styles of rage and vamp music. But once the clip was posted to Twitter Yachty felt the need to correct him.

Lil Yachty apparently did tell DJ Akademiks that another artist inspired his change in sound, just not Carti. In a tweet responding to the original video Yachty clarified. “@Akademiks u r so insane, I didn’t tell u this at all. Stop drinking bro. I said Tyler encouraged me to take that route. Wtf,” his tweet read. It wasn’t the only rumor he had to clear up in Twitter recently. After some reported that Yachty claimed Playboi Carti and NBA Youngboy had an album coming soon that would be “the collab of the year.” Yachty shut down the rumor with a simple tweet. “I didn’t say this.”

Lil Yachty Corrects The Narrative

Lil Yachty recently grabbed fans’ attention in Poland, unsurprisingly. He played his viral smash hit “Poland” six times during the show. The crowd was with him all the way taking the unique opportunity to celebrate the song in perhaps the perfect place.

Lil Yachty made his surprising shift into rock music when he dropped Let’s Start Here, back in January. He followed it up a few months later in April with the new single “Strike.” The song has also gone on to become a bit of a hit adding to Yachty’s already strong year. What do you think of Lil Yachty correcting DJ Akademik’s story? Let us know in the comment section below.

Playboi Carti Previews New Music At Wireless Festival, Spends Time With Fans

by

Playboi Carti is without a doubt one of hip-hop’s best performers of the moment, which he proved yet again with his Wireless Festival performance on Friday (July 7) in London. Sure, he might just scream his songs through, but you aren’t hearing that energy on any studio recording. Regardless, not only did his set contain some of his biggest hits, but he also previewed new music for the U.K. crowd. Moreover, an aerial shot of the concertgoers shows just how rowdy people were, and the same can be said for a recording of his rendition of the legendary Lil Uzi Vert collab “Shoota.” With that, the Atlanta artist really covered all the bases with his concert as fans beg for a new album soon.

As far as the teased unreleased track, it’s kind of hard to make out with this video. Still, it sounds exactly like what you’d expect from Playboi Carti’s Whole Lotta Red era. It’s loud, aggressive, bass-heavy, guitar-led, and above all energizing, which is what made that 2020 album such a live hit. All that being said, Carti’s always one to switch things up from project to project, so who knows if this will be the same energy he brings to his next offering.

What’s more is that the 26-year-old also extended his appreciation for fans to the streets- or rather, thanking them in person. Furthermore, Playboi Carti seemed to hang out with a few fans after his show, as one social media clip shows. In it, a fan recorded Carti as they listened to his collab with The Weeknd and Madonna, “Popular.” When he spotted the fan as he took a video, he cracked a smile, took a fan’s fist bump in his palm, and pulled him in with his arm for a hug.

Meanwhile, the comments sections of coverage of this post hilariously posited that he was trying to make up for ghosting Nardwuar. The legendary interviewer and journalist actually listed the “King Vamp” rager as a dream interview of his. Hopefully that’s in the cards, especially after the interaction caused so much of a stir online. Log back into HNHH for the latest news and updates on Playboi Carti.

Nardwuar Lists Playboi Carti Among Dream Interviews

by

There are few interviewers in music more beloved than Nardwuar. He’s gone viral dozens of times for hilarious interview moments with rappers. Lil Uzi Vert, A$AP Rocky, and Tyler, The Creator have all had their minds blown by the detailed research Nardwuar does before his interviews. This time around it was Nardwuar getting interviewed and he was asked about what his dream interviews would be. He lists three people in his answer starting with Barack Obama and Paul McCartney. Alongside those two legends, he completes his dream list with rapper Playboi Carti.

The statement comes just a few weeks after Carti “subbed” Nardwuar. After leaving his Summer Smash show last month, Carti was chased down the street by fans trying to get a glimpse of the rapper. But before he could even make it out a different fan tried to talk with him, Nardwuar. A video that went viral shows Carti in his car ignoring the interviewer’s questions while his security holds him back. In the wake of the clip, Carti realized just how beloved Nardwuar is online when fans bashed him for ignoring the loveable interviewer.

Nardwuar’s Dream Interviews

Of course, Playboi Carti isn’t the only rapper who’s been making headlines with Nardwuar recently. One of his most beloved interviews was when he sat down with Lil Uzi Vert in 2018 and the pair recently reunited. Firstly an adorable video hit the internet of the two of them embracing and being extremely happy to see each other. In a subsequently released video Lil Uzi invites Nardwuar over to their house and offers to teach him how to play Call Of Duty.

The hilarious and occasionally mysterious interviewer is loved by many rappers. He was at Summer Smash in the first place as a guest of rapper Ski Mask The Slump God. Fans lit up with cheers when they realized who was on stage with him. A subsequent video of the pair together on stage went viral in the days following. What do you think of Nardwuar listing Playboi Carti as a dream interview subject? Let us know in the comment section below.

Playboi Carti Closes Second Night of Rolling Loud Portugal

Rolling Loud Portugal concluded its second day with an electrifying performance by Playboi Carti, who delivered a high-energy set that ignited the Algarve coast. The crowd enthusiastically joined in as Carti belted out his biggest hits, creating an electric atmosphere.

The festival showcased a lineup of prominent American artists, including Kodak Black, who made his European festival debut, as well as GloRilla, NLE Choppa, and JID, who surprised the audience by bringing out Ski Mask The Slump God for a special performance of “Costa Rica.” Rising stars like Lola Brooke and 2Rare and R&B talent Mariah The Scientist also impressed the crowd. UK sensation Russ Millions proudly represented the European rap scene, while Sainté, hailing from Leicester, showcased his burgeoning talent.

Rolling Loud Portugal continues to captivate audiences with its diverse lineup, showcasing the best in hip-hop and rap worldwide.

Playboi Carti’s Absence On Lil Uzi Vert’s “Pink Tape” Gets Fans Down Bad On Twitter

by

Pink Tape is finally here, and fan consensus indicates that Lil Uzi Vert did not disappoint with this long-awaited release. However, there is one aspect of the album that disappointed fans and has them once again clamoring for online: where in the world is Playboi Carti? In the lead up to this album, Uzi teased an appearance time and time again, whether when they spoke on having the features that everyone wants or expects or by shouting Carti out on social media and previewed tracks. Still, the tracklist finally arrived, and the Whole Lotta Red star was nowhere to be seen. That being said, we still got a taste of what almost happened between them.

Moreover, when Lil Uzi Vert’s YouTube page posted the track “Patience” with Don Toliver, it allegedly contained a version with Playboi Carti and not the officially released version. Though those responsible fixed that quick, fans still clamored for the song to appear on a deluxe version in the reply section. In addition, a collab track called “Rich A** Bastard” also surfaced online that they apparently scrapped for Pink Tape. As such, even though fans lost hope when they saw the tracklist, there’s still a chance another team-up is around the corner.

Twitter Reacts To Playboi Carti Not Being On Pink Tape

If you’re curious to hear what could’ve been (or still could be), one user replied to the tweet above with a link to the leak. Elsewhere on Twitter, fans lamented the lack of Playboi Carti on Pink Tape with reaction videos, GIFs, memes, and a whole lot more. “Surely yeat and playboi carti are hidden features on pink tape right??” one fan wrote. Their tweet contained a GIF that sums up exactly how many die-hards feel right now: Spongebob clutching his pencil nervously like someone dying of hunger staring at a hamburger.

Meanwhile, there are certainly other features on Pink Tape that stole the show. For example, JT and Nicki Minaj recently went back and forth on Twitter talking about the latter’s verse on “Endless Fashion.” Apparently Nicki handed her verse in quickly after a long day’s work, and it resulted in a lot of standout lines. Hopefully Carti’s working hard in the studio to get his next verse in for Uzi, too. Regardless, check out more fan reactions below and stay up to date on HNHH for the latest on Playboi Carti and Lil Uzi Vert.

Playboi Carti Was Chased By Fans On A Highway After Lyrical Lemonade’s Summer Smash Festival

Playboi Carti collaborated with Madonna and The Weeknd on “Popular” for The Idol, and the events after Carti’s headlining Lyrical Lemonade’s 2023 Summer Smash sounds like a plot line extracted from the controversial HBO series.

Summer Smash was held over the weekend at SeatGeek Stadium in Bridgeview, Illinois. Kid Cudi headlined on Friday night, June 23, while Future handled headliner duties on Saturday, June 24, and Carti brought the Cole Bennett-led event home on Sunday night, June 25. The final night was actually punctuated by Chicago’s very own Lil Durk, but some fans wanted more Playboi Carti.

Videos aggregated on Instagram and Twitter by Our Generation Music show an SUV carrying Carti speeding off from the venue, only to be chased by people on foot as it approached the highway. (Maybe they wanted to demand answers in person as to when his follow-up to Whole Lotta Red is coming.) Carti appeared to love the overflowing love, appearing with a smile from the sunroof.

According to setlist.fm, Carti’s 12-song Summer Smash set included a cover of Lil Yachty’s “Flex Up” and of Kanye West’s “Off The Grid” — Carti was a featured artist on both — before a three-song encore of “Teen X,” “New N3on,” and “Vamp Anthem.”

Lil Uzi Vert Teases “The Pink Tape” Cover Art, Potential Collabs With Playboi Carti & Ken Carson

by

Lil Uzi Vert has recently taken to social media to tease potential cover art for The Pink Tape. They shared what could be the album’s cover in an Instagram story last night, leaving fans to speculate. The artist additionally shared some photos of Playboi Carti and Ken Carson, leading viewers to think that they could be featured on the highly-anticipated upcoming LP.

Lil Uzi Vert recently claimed that fans can expect to hear The Pink Tape sometime later this month. Some speculate that it could arrive on June 23, National Pink Day. The artist says, “I can’t hold off no more,” adding that they’ll go to the greatest of lengths to provide fans with the LP. “You know me, I’m crazy,” they said, “Even if I have to drop it myself, it’s coming out at the end of the month.” Although no official release date has been confirmed, Lil Uzi Vert’s fans are eagerly awaiting their latest offering.

Lil Uzi Vert Hints At Possible Collabs

Earlier this week, the artist hopped on Instagram Live to further hype the new album, previewing some unreleased music. DJ Akademiks also recently revealed that Travis Scott is set to be featured on The Pink Tape, describing the collaboration as “fire.” They’re keeping the project under wraps for now, however, by wearing a USB around their neck.

Lil Uzi Vert has also shared that they were sober throughout the recording process of the new album.  “It was challenging at first. But then after probably after a month, I got used to it,” Uzi told TMZ. “I thought that my creative process wasn’t going to be the same because I wasn’t on drugs no more. It was the same. Even better. Because I could think more clear and I could actually, like, instead of my words slurring, which is kinda of cool, everything made sense. I didn’t just make random music. How can I say? I didn’t play off the beat. I actually made song with topics this time.”
