Playboi Carti Promises To Debut His ‘Music’ Album During His Rolling Loud Miami Set

November 27, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Playboi Carti’s next album is either called Music or I Am Music — he can’t seem to decide which it actually is. Either way, though, fans attending his set at Rolling Loud in Miami on December 15 will be getting the first full listen to the album. On Rolling Loud’s Instagram, a new flyer promises “I AM MUSIC WILL B PLAYED,” although there’s not much information past that. He certainly appeared to be working toward a set built around the album at Camp Flog Gnaw Carnival earlier this month, so it seems he certainly has a foundation for it.

Although Carti has been teasing the album for at least two years, but only recently began sharing official singles. In September, he dropped “All Red,” while in January, he unofficially released “Backr00ms” featuring Travis Scott — an unofficial follow-up to his and Travis’ previous collab “Fein,” which has become a fan favorite since its release last year.

Even though he didn’t share a bunch of his own new music, Carti seemed to become pop music’s go-to feature for Gen Z cool factor, teaming up with The Weeknd and Madonna on “Popular” and Camila Cabello on “I Luv It,” before reuniting with The Weeknd on his new single “Timeless.”

Playboi Carti Claims He’ll Perform “I Am Music” At Rolling Loud, But Can He Be Trusted?

November 27, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Playboi Carti might be the most frustrating and recluse hip-hop/rap adjacent artist going today. There are others such as A$AP Rocky and Frank Ocean. But despite this fact, he remains to be one of the most listened to MCs year in and year out. In that same breath though, he can only keep walking that fine line before fans tap out. They will still revisit his catalog, no doubt. He possesses some of the biggest hits, especially over the five years. But given the social environment we are inhabiting right now, people want you to update your resume consistently and he just hasn’t done that.

With that said, Playboi Carti has a great chance to at least suppress the noise with I Am Music. It’s hard to gauge even just a rough estimate of when it will drop, but this update could be very telling. Just several hours ago, the Georgia native himself announced on his IG burner account, opium_00pium, that he will be performing the elusive project at Rolling Loud Miami, which is celebrating its tenth anniversary. The music festival begins December 13 and will run through the 15th. Future is the main attraction on day one, followed by Travis Scott, and then Carti.

Does This Playboi Carti Update Move You?

“MIAMI TEN YEAR ANNIVERSARY… I AM MUSIC WILL B PLAYED… KANT WAIT TO SEE YAL MFS NAH FR,” he writes with visible excitement. Earlier we said it could tone done the angry mob, but that doesn’t seem to be the case. His comments section is filled with doubt, with one writing, “I AM MUSIC WILL BE PLAYED” jordan we know you dawg.”

Another goes, “He ain’t dropping or showing up to anything I fear.” Some are even open to the idea of the album being leaked early. “Can someone leak his album already? We’re tired of the games.” With patience running thin, the pressure is on Carti. There’s a really good chance that he plays just a few snippets and if he does, we aren’t sure that is going to be enough. Fans want the album, and the question now is, “How will he respond?”

Wiz Khalifa is known for being rather cool guy. In fact, the “See You Again” rapper’s only issues (at least on the legal front) are connected to his love of marijuana.

According to Wiz, he get his chill demeanor from his mother. Over the weekend, one fan managed to from Wiz from his cloud of zen. While performing at a Rolling Loud Thailand after party held at Club 808 in Pattaya, an attendee ticked Wiz off by throwing money on stage. Although he is a fan of exotic clubs, he didn’t appreciate the gesture and was sure to verbalize it.

In a video captured by an attendee (viewable here), Wiz Khalifa reprimanded the assailant. “Stop throwing money on the stage,” he said. “I’m not a stripper, dog. Quit throwing money on the stage.”

The attendee can be heard apologizing for his actions. But it seems he had already been warned based on Wiz’s follow-up statement. “I’ve already told you once,” he said. “I’m not a dancer. If you don’t know I’m Wiz Khalifa.”

Others chimed in to cheer Wiz Khalifa on for taking a stand against the distributor. It appears the performance continued without any further interference. Wiz Khalifa has not publicly addressed the matter.

Since then, the festival has turned into a celebration of contemporary hip-hop. Some of the biggest artists in the genre continue to headline the event. However, it has not completely lost its spirit as a platform for young artists. Many of the rappers on the 2024 Rolling Loud program will be performing in front of a large crowd for the first time in their careers.

Cherif also shared the program on his Instagram page. “Flawless @rollingloud 10 year anniversary lineup,” he wrote in the caption.
