Playboi Carti releases new album “I’M MUSIC,” featuring Kendrick Lamar, Travis Scott, Future & more

​After years of anticipation and multiple delays, Playboi Carti has finally released his third studio album, “I AM MUSIC.” This 30-track project showcases Carti’s signature experimental style and features collaborations with several prominent artists, including Kendrick Lamar, who appears on three tracks: “GOOD CREDIT,” “MOJO JOJO,” and “BACKD00R.” ​

The album’s journey to release has been eventful. Initially announced in March 2021 under the title “Narcissist,” the project faced numerous setbacks, including site hacks and sample clearance issues. By April 2022, Carti had renamed the album “Music,” reflecting its pure essence. Despite teasers and new singles in late 2023, the album missed several expected release dates, keeping fans on edge. ​

The final product, “I AM MUSIC,” not only includes Kendrick Lamar but also features other notable artists such as Travis Scott, Lil Uzi Vert, Future, The Weeknd, Skepta, Young Thug, and Ty Dolla $ign. Lamar’s contributions, particularly on “GOOD CREDIT,” have garnered significant attention, with his verse being widely discussed for its sharp lyricism and cultural references. ​

Critics have noted the album’s ambitious scope and Carti’s evolution as an artist. The diverse range of collaborations adds depth to the project, offering a mix of chaotic and refined sounds that reflect Carti’s unique musical explorations over the past years. ​

“I AM MUSIC” is now available on all major streaming platforms, inviting listeners to experience Playboi Carti’s latest artistic endeavor.
