After the success of his debut mixtape and the well-received "Die Lit" in 2018, Carti left fans eagerly awaiting his next move.

In 2020, Carti returned with his hit album, "Whole Lotta Red," demonstrating his ability to evolve and push boundaries within the genre. However, fans hungered for more, and in the following year, Carti teased another album via social media, initially titled "Narcissist." Later, he revealed a title change to simply "Music," adding an air of mystery and anticipation to the project.

In March, rumors surfaced that "Music" was nearing completion, and the rapper intrigued audiences by performing unreleased tracks at both Rolling Loud California and Wireless Festival. The snippets left fans craving more and speculating about the direction Carti might take with his latest album.

On December 7, Carti took to his Instagram Story, posting the words "I AM MUSIC" and changing his profile picture to match the message. This marked a significant step in the official rollout for "Music." While Carti has yet to reveal an actual release date, the social media activity suggests that the project is in its final stages, and is rumored to release in the beginning of 2024, as claimed by DJ Akademiks which fans claim is a reliable source as he also stated that Carti’s “Whole Lotta Red” album will release on Christmas of 2020, and that statement turned out to be true, which now leaves fans eager for more details.

The rapper also teased a new song on the album titled “UR THE MOON” on his Instagram story to sample the type of sound and style Carti has chosen to take which received immensely positive reactions by the fans. With the official rollout underway, fans of Playboi Carti are on the edge of their seats, eagerly awaiting the arrival of "Music."

As Carti officially kicks off the rollout for "Music," the hip-hop world is on high alert, ready to witness the next chapter in the artist's evolution.
