Everything to know about Playboi Carti's upcoming album I Am Music

Playboi Carti's fans have been excited about the release of the upcoming album and have been waiting since he first spoke about the new project in 2021. However, the constant delays made many fans question about its release.

The album which was initially titled Narcissist got a new name Music, as revealed by Carti during an interview with XXL in April 2022. In the same conversation, he also spoke about the themes behind the lyrics used in the album. Carti said:

"Love. S*x. Drugs. I’ve been rapping about going to rehab. I want to go to rehab because I think I’m bipolar. I want everybody to feel free. I want this album to make everyone feel free. I hope this album brings peace to the world, honestly."

In November 2023, the rapper told Numéro Berlin that he had recorded music for the upcoming album in several places including Paris and Atlanta. A month later, Playboi Carti posted the artwork of his upcoming album on Instagram with the phrase "I AM MUSIC." This made fans speculate that it would be the title of the album.

In December 2024, to keep the fans in the loop about the upcoming album, DJ Akademiks jumped in and announced "Carti is on the WAY! Relax." As 2024 ended without the release of the much-anticipated album, fans of Playboi Carti seemed to be excited now with the recent billboard messages.
