“Playboi Carti Sparks Frenzy with Mysterious Teasers: Is His Long-Awaited Album ‘MUSIC’ Finally Near?”

Added on March 24, 2025 inEntertainment News Cards

In the ever-evolving world of hip-hop, where drop dates can feel more elusive than finding a needle in a haystack, Playboi Carti stands as the quintessential enigma. Seriously, is anyone else just waiting for his album teasers to actually materialize? It’s like watching a magic show where the magician never reveals the trick! With rumors swirling about alleged pushback from Billboard and some not-so-nice comments from Kanye West, one might think Carti’s mondo creative spirit would be a bit shaken… but not this Atlanta icon! Amidst the murky waters of industry politics, he’s unapologetically riding high on the success of his latest LP, MUSIC, while teasing what could be his next big project, presumably titled BABY BOI. Oh, and let’s not forget about his lighthearted assurance to fans about another track—because why not keep everyone on their toes until 2030? As he navigates the chaos, from chart-topping sales to whispers of controversy, one thing’s clear: Playboi Carti is not just surviving; he’s thriving, and I’m more than a little intrigued to see what he does next.

Playboi Carti has a lot on his plate these days, seeing pushback from Billboard (allegedly) and one of his biggest collaborators. But no matter what Kanye West has to say about him these days, he still feels on top of the world. The Atlanta creative continues to tease a new album coming soon (most likely BABY BOI) on social media amid the success of the long-awaited LP MUSIC earlier this March. “CONGRATS LETS CONTINUE DIS LIL RUN WE GOT I GOT ANOTHER CLIP READY,” he wrote via his alternate Instagram account. At this rate, fans expect it to come out in 2030.

Jokes aside, there is really no reason to believe a new Playboi Carti album tease until it finally appears on official platforms. Not only is the track record working against it – MUSIC‘s predecessor, Whole Lotta Red, came out in 2020 – but even the release of this new album came with plenty of other leaks, reworked versions, and snippets. As such, folks should always take everything with a grain of salt, as you never know what’s actually a rollout and what’s just a move to keep the mystique up.

Playboi Carti First Week Sales

Nevertheless, no new album promise was able to boost or downplay Playboi Carti’s MUSIC‘s first week sales. The album marked his second consecutive No. 1 album on the Billboard 200 albums chart, pushing 298K album-equivalent units in its first week according to the publication. This falls slightly below previous expectations and predictions, and even King Vamp himself doubts the veracity of these numbers. Of course, numbers don’t mean much in the grand scheme of things, especially when cuts like “OPM BABI” and “LIKE WEEZY” became culturally inescapable at the moment.

All these releases and new album teases have not gone without controversy for the Opium boss, though. The big narrative is around discussions of his domestic allegations that sparked due to his Kendrick Lamar collaborations, and DJ Vlad recently resurfaced allegations about Rubi Rose being with multiple rappers, including Carti, when she was underage. Take all these allegations with a grain of salt, and don’t expect him to address any of them on BABY BOI.
