After nearly five years of building hype, the Atlanta rapper’s 30-song third album, “Music,” has finally arrived. Let’s discuss.

Twenty minutes later, the show was back on, with the Weeknd crooning “Rather Lie” and “Timeless” surrounded by Carti’s Opium crew while pyro and chugging guitars flared around them. Carti fans come for the chaos — is the rest of the music industry ready for him on the A-list?

At long last, Playboi Carti‘s MUSIC is finally here. The colossal 30 track LP arrived early Friday morning (March 14), and marks Carti's first album in five years following the release of his equally-as-colossal Whole Lotta Red back in 2020.
