Playboi Carti Promises New Album Is “Coming Soon” Amid Rescheduled Europe Tour

by

SHOCKING NEWS: Playboi Carti is still teasing his new album with no concrete release date, single, or announcement in sight… and we can’t wait for it to land sometime in 2036. Jokes aside, there’s actually a few reasons as to why this particular hint has a bit more weight to it than usual. Moreover, he and the rest of his Opium crew (Ken Carson, Destroy Lonely, and Homixide Gang) rescheduled their European Antagonist tour. Not only that, but this tour also hinted at the Atlanta MC being in album more, since this is a good promotional opportunity. Recently, DJ Akademiks and other outlets shared an official press release that blends these two worlds together.

“Playboi Carti Antagonist Tour UK and Europe dates rescheduled,” the statement reads. “New album coming soon. Opium label signees Ken Carson, Destroy Lonely, and Homixide Gang set to support tour.” This is the second postponement that Antagonist faced. First announced in July of this year for a September start date in the U.S., it then changed to a European kickoff in November, followed by winter United States dates. From what Ticketmaster indicates at press time, the winter U.S. dates still stand, while the European shows don’t have an official rescheduled date.

Playboi Carti’s New Press Release: Rescheduled Dates & New Album Dropping Soon

Of course, what most fans really care about concerning this press release is that Playboi Carti is hopefully dropping an album very soon. Furthermore, this follows an avalanche of leaks, acclaimed performances, low-profile social media activity, and the general buzz that such an ardent fanbase creates around the most minute of details. We can’t say that we didn’t fall into this excitement, either. After all, Whole Lotta Red is as relevant as ever despite the “Choppa Won’t Miss” MC’s legal trouble.

As such, there’s a lot of excitement for what his next phase will look like: will it be a completely new sound or are we revisiting his Cash Carti, psych-punk, or vamp era? While these rescheduled dates are very unfortunate, hopefully it means that the Opium crew will be able to give fans the show that they want and deserve, and also an experience that they feel proud and able to present, as well. Let’s see if we’ll get another Christmastime drop or if this is just one more crumpled up piece of paper in the “Anticipated Drops” trash bin. Carti’s been overflowing that for years, but as long as the new album is good, we’ll happily wait. On that note, stay posted on HNHH for the latest news and updates on Playboi Carti.

Drake Fans Furious After He Rescheduled Tour Dates

by

Drake caused an uproar online after he rescheduled his dates for his upcoming tour with 21 Savage. Moreover, a lot of people specifically took issue with the dates moving from summer of this year to this fall. After all, for such an anticipated and expensive tour, many die-hards probably made big changes to their schedule to attend. That being said, not all tour dates saw a change. New Orleans, Nashville, Houston, Dallas, Miami, and Atlanta dates moving from summer to fall were the ones that fans decried.

Of course, this simply adds to grievances with this concert trek for a lot of supporters out there. For example, the “It’s All A Blur” tour first saw criticism for its insanely high ticket prices, with some comparing it to the likes of Taylor Swift and Beyoncé shows. However, that might not be entirely the organizers’ fault, as Ticketmaster often gets flack for how they “dynamically” shift prices to accommodate for massive demand. In addition, Drake and 21 Savage added various tour dates to the trek as well, so one person’s trash in Houston will be another’s treasure in, for example, Charlotte.

Drake Fans Mad That He Changed Tour Dates Around

Still, that doesn’t make the sting any less potent for a lot of OVO goons. While it’s been a long time since Drake embarked on a tour (since 2018 to be exact), recent shows gave fans hope and proof that this one will be excellent. One of these shows was the 6 God’s run in the historic Apollo Theater in Harlem, New York City. During this and other recent performances, the “Nice For What” MC ran through his classic catalog and his most recent big hits.

Meanwhile, other aspects of the 36-year-old’s live shows left fans with a sour taste in their mouths. Specifically, his Lollapalooza set this year resulted in a late start, short performance, and a canceled livestream. If that sounds familiar, it’s because Coachella and Frank Ocean proved just weeks later that those issues can often plague festival headliners. Still, that doesn’t make it an easier pill to swallow for fans, especially when the blame is unclear. Regardless, check back in with HNHH for the latest happenings from Drake and check out fan reactions down below.
