Playboi Carti Tracker

Aviation Class

Carti would first starting working on music around 2009, with his first musical appearence being the "Jordan acting stuping" video, Back then, he was going by the name "JCee" (Abreviation of Jordan and Carter, very creative Carti !), he revealed in an interview that his childhood nickname is "Moot". He would first announce a mixtape called "Aviation class" on Sep 19, 2010, but didn't drop shit (like in 2024), except a couple of singles 5 months later (like in 2024). On Apr 10, 2011 he would end up changing his name to $ir Cartier, and on Apr 27, 2011 he would announce a new mixtape called Killing Me Softly, which would not drop aswell (like in 2024).

Awful Records

In 2014, Playboi Carti signed to Awful Records and started gaining a lot of popularity and momentum. During this era Carti used a red cover for his SoundCloud singles, hence Red era also being a popular name for this period of Carti's career. The era ended with the release of death in tune EP, after which he changed his style and started working more with MexikoDro and generally different people than he worked with during the Awful Records Era.

The album would heavily focus on repetitive earworm performances over Pi'erre's signature psychedelic trap beats. It was supported by three singles, "Lookin", "wokeuplikethis*", and "Magnolia", the latter of which was awarded Best New Track from Pitchfork.

In September of 2017, Playboi Carti would announce via Snapchat and Twitter that he would be collaborating with Lil Uzi Vert on a collaboration album titled 16*29. The following month,a tour for the album was announced by the two, but was shortly canceled afterwards when Uzi said he wouldn't be going on tour with Carti because he "needed 2 focus." The album would fall by the wayside until July of 2018, where Carti would mention that he and Uzi had recorded "like 100 songs." After that, all talk of the album pretty much subsided.

Die Lit

Die Lit is the debut studio album by Playboi Carti and a big step in the sound he had been working on. After the success of his self-titled mixtape, Carti went even bigger, using catchy vocal styles and memorable hooks over spacey, hard-hitting beats from producers like Pi'erre Bourne, Maaly Raw, and Art Dealer. With a strong lineup of features, many consider Die Lit one of the best trap albums ever made. This album also marked the start of a change in Carti’s style. In the early days, his look and vibe were colorful and vibrant, matching the fun energy of his music. But with Die Lit, his image started shifting toward a darker, punk-inspired feel. This wasn’t just in fashion—it showed in his performances, visuals, and the way he carried himself as an artist. More than just an album, Die Lit helped set the stage for Whole Lotta Red. The wild energy, high-tempo beats, and chaotic feel of Die Lit paved the way for Carti to go even further. Whole Lotta Red would take these ideas to the next level, fully diving into punk energy, rougher beats, and a raw, aggressive sound that made it one of his most unique projects.

Whole Lotta Red [V1]

The first iteration of Whole Lotta Red aimed for a very similar sound to Die Lit, with Carti rapping over cloudy trap beats, and producer Pi'erre Bourne reprising his role as the premier beatmaker for the album with one difference; his now famous 'Baby Voice', prominent on songs like 'Pissy Pamper' and 'Goku'. Around a month after the release of Die Lit, Carti would preview "Buffy The Body" on a private account instagram live, and announce he was working on Die Lit 2 . In August of 2018, a video would surface of Carti discussing the album, now referring to it as "Whole Lotta Red."

Many songs from this 'WLR V1 2019' era are considered to be V2 by most of the comm, however, they are technically V1 due to the fact that the V2 era
technically did not start until October 2019 after Carti failed to drop in the 'next 60 days'. During Spring-Summer 2019, Carti was mainly experimenting with a
higher pitched baby voice similar to the voice on songs like 'Pass It' and 'X Files'. This era is known as 'Whole Lotta Red V1.5' by some of the community.

Trippie Redd answered to a comment from a fan asking him for an EP with Carti "sooner than later". The EP was actually likely worked on during 2019, due to Carti and Trippie having a lot of songs from this time. The album was later scrapped and the songs were either vaulted or given to smaller artists. Cover art (unfortunately) is fanmade.

Whole Lotta Red [V2]

The second iteration of Whole Lotta Red marks Playboi Carti's highest peak of experimentation, pushing his signature high-pitched vocal inflections and the fan-dubbed "baby voice" to new extremes. During this period, he continued to work closely with Pi’erre Bourne while also bringing in producers like Richie Souf and Maaly Raw to help shape the album's evolving sound. @ MEH was released as a single for the album, but due to the mixed reception of the V2 sound, Carti ultimately scrapped and reworked the project just months before its final release. The cover art from this era comes from the @ MEH single, visually marking this transitional phase.

Beyond just his sound, Carti's entire aesthetic underwent a drastic transformation. He dyed his hair blonde, completely abandoned his iconic freeform dreads in favor of re-twists, and started wearing tighter clothing—fully embracing the avant-garde fashion of Rick Owens. Around this time, he also began incorporating the upside-down cross into his imagery, a symbol that would become deeply associated with both him and his Opium collective. The symbol remains just as controversial today as it was when he first introduced it, solidifying this era as one of the most pivotal in his artistic evolution.

Interestingly, while the V2 sound was initially met with mixed reactions, as music has evolved in recent years, many fans have come to appreciate this era more than ever. Many songs from this version of Whole Lotta Red are now considered grails within the fanbase, and the V2 era is often regarded as a fan-favorite, representing one of the most experimental and influential phases of his career.

Whole Lotta Red [V3]

After the death of his friend Bigg Sosa, Carti takes more time to release the album and abandons social media until October, where he finally made his return to announce the rollout of his awaited second studio album Whole Lotta Red. We know that Carti isn't a really good lyricist, but on certain tracks, he talks about the grief he experienced when Bigg Sosa passed and expresses how he copes on songs like 'ILoveUIHateU,' where he opens up about his drug addiction. Songs during this era have more of a somber, relaxed tone compared to the rest of his works, abandoning his baby-voice for an early version of what we know as his raspy voice. This shift was partly driven by the immense hate and criticism he received for the baby-voice, pushing him to explore a darker and more aggressive vocal style. Leakers say that there was a September version of Whole Lotta Red with a finalized tracklist, but we will probably never hear what this version of the album sounded like.

Whole Lotta Red [V4]

In late 2020, Carti would shift the sound of Whole Lotta Red into being an aggressive ode to punk rock aesthetics, while maintaining the repetitive vocal style that made his previous work so loved. The album was his biggest musical departure by far, forgoing most of the things that brought him success in the first place, such as production from Pi'erre Bourne, or features from popular collaborators like Lil Uzi Vert or A$AP Rocky. Instead, the album would only see a handful of features, and would see production predominantly from F1LTHY & Art Dealer. Connecting to V3, on this album Carti talks about his acts violence, expressing how he felt when Bigg Sosa died (grief to anger). On songs like On That Time, Stop Breathing and No Sl33p, he opens up on how he felt, displaying anger, sometimes sadness and vengence for his friend. Ye would be the executive producer for the album, and it would see a release on Christmas Day, 2020.

Whole Lotta Red [Deluxe]

One day after Whole Lotta Red's release, Carti took to Twitter to ask fans which songs they wanted on the deluxe edition, marking the first time he had ever planned a deluxe release for one of his projects. Many of the songs considered for the deluxe were well-known leaks, alongside potential new tracks created specifically for the project. These songs underwent multiple tweaks and changes, such as mixing, mastering, and even name changes, in preparation for an official release. So far, two tracklist versions of the deluxe have been revealed by insiders and leakers, with speculation that more versions may exist but have yet to surface. Unfortunately, Carti eventually went silent about the deluxe, and the project was ultimately shelved. It is rumored that the label did not allow him to release the deluxe, forcing him to abandon the project in favor of focusing on his next album, NARCISSIST.

Donda was an opportunity used by Carti as a "rollout" to showcase his new, somewhat softer, and more relaxed sound used on his now-scrapped album "Narcissist". Based on snippets and leaks, Ye West not only helped Carti develop a foundation for the album, but he also gave inspiration and introduced him to the sounds he uses today. Despite the non-launch of Narcissist, Carti used Donda as a stepping stone to his new works of music.

Narcissist

Most mysterious Carti era by far. After the WLR Deluxe had been shelved, Carti announced his next album on Instagram, Narcissist, with a planned release date of September 13, 2021. The album, however, never dropped. A few days later, Carti posted a screenshot of a group chat with the message: "FORGET ABOUT SAMPLE CLEARANCES. DROP NARCISSIST." Despite the post, Carti never mentioned the album again. The project was scrapped due to sample clearance issues and a reported similarity to Future’s sound. Before the official name was announced, Carti posted a fit pic dressed in all white with the caption, "Lets drop this new album, we not done." Gunner Stahl, known for his close ties to Carti, commented on the post saying, "mollyworld >" For a while, fans speculated that Mollyworld could be the album’s new name, only for it to be revealed later that the album would be called Narcissist. No one truly knew what Narcissist would sound like. The hints of heavy sample use, coupled with beats that were previewed, suggested a futuristic and synth-driven direction. This marked a departure from the raw, punk-influenced sound of Whole Lotta Red. From the leaks and snippets that surfaced, it became evident that this was the last era where Carti used his iconic "baby voice" style. Around this time, Carti began developing a deeper vocal tone, which would later debut publicly on Travis Scott's "FE!N." Interestingly, during this transitional period, Carti experimented with combining his baby voice with a lisp, as heard in the leaked tracks "Go" by ASAP Rocky and "Hold Up" by Future. While it wasn’t exactly the same baby voice heard during the Whole Lotta Red V2 era, it was very similar, albeit with noticeable differences that reflected Carti’s evolving vocal experimentation. The project featured production from a roster of known producers who had previously worked with Carti, including Richie Souf, Art Dealer, F1lthy, KP Beatz, Lukrative, Ssort, Lil 88, and possibly many more. This combination of producers further hinted at the experimental and diverse nature of the album's sound. Carti even planned the Narcissist tour to support the album, with many fans expecting the album to drop alongside the tour's kickoff. However, as the album's release failed to materialize, the tour was eventually renamed the King Vamp Tour.

Early leaks like "Ready to Crash" by Homixide Gang showcased Carti’s initial attempts at his deeper voice, though it came off as awkward and unpolished. Other snippets, like "Remember Me" by Lil Unky and "Different Vibes," revealed Carti’s progress in refining this deeper tone. By the time of leaks like "Too Hot" (commonly referred to as "Two Out"), his new vocal style had started to take shape, signaling the transition into his current sound. Fans were understandably outraged by Narcissist never seeing the light of day, leaving behind a cloud of mystery. The racing aesthetic teased through promotional materials, along with Ye's rumored involvement, hinted at the album's ambitious potential. However, the only release tied to the project was the controversial Narcissist merch line, which wasn’t music-related. The confusion surrounding Narcissist deepened over time, as it became increasingly difficult to identify which songs belonged to that era. Carti had reportedly worked on the album for only a short time before scrapping it, renaming the project, and switching its aesthetic. In the end, many fans were left wishing for what could’ve been—a vision that remains shrouded in speculation and fragmented by leaks and snippets.

MUSIC

Following Narcissist's non-launch, Carti would continue his King Vamp tour and then go quiet for a few months before he broke his silence in February with a series of, let's say, "questionable" Instagram posts. Still, it marked the beginning of the MUSIC era, where he showed off his new aesthetic for the first time. Behind the scenes, he was hard at work as leakers say that between February and April, he made hundreds of new songs for his album. He would then confirm in an XXL interview in April that his new album would be called 'MUSIC' and that he was hard at work. During the summer, he would perform at a couple of festivals before kicking off his new fashion brand 'NARCISSIST' (not related to the scrapped album) in October 2022. Following that, on December 24th, 2022 he posted a cryptic album cover to Instagram that to this day, NOBODY knows its purpose (the cover is still up on his Instagram). Then, he would return to Twitter and post his infamous quote, "love all my supporters it’s time". As of December 15th, 2024, he hasn't posted on his Twitter since.

According to Leakers, this iteration of the album was set to release on January 13th, 2023 but because HE BEAT THE SHIT OUT OF HIS GIRLFRIEND, he got arrested for it and delayed the album indefinitely. When comparing this album to his previous works, he blends all of his previous sounds into one which gives a sense of familiarity, but it builds upon that which creates something new. He introduces new voices, for example, the ones you hear on KILLERS and ALL RED, but he also introduces an evolved baby voice in MENAGÉ and IN THE HOOD* which would continue to be used for the next iterations of MUSIC. Beat-wise it's a mix of something you'd hear on Die Lit and something that you would hear on early iterations of Whole Lotta Red which makes it unique from anything else he's ever made. Just imagine what we could've had...

After NBA Youngboy stated publically that he would never do a song with Carti in 2021, who would've guessed that 2 years later they would have a collab tape in the works? Well, certainly not me. It all started when either Youngboy or Carti hit up each other in early 2022, and since then they started cranking out songs together. Carti's influence would be seen on NBA Youngboy's album "I Rest My Case" which was released in January of 2023 and was supposed to feature Carti, seemingly on the song "Not My Friend", but due to unknown circumstances he was taken off the album. Carti would then post a cryptic picture of Youngboy with an Opium chain in June of 2023, and then later on his team confirmed that a tape was on the way. Ken Carson has also confirmed the existence of the tape saying that he's been messing with Opium for a long time. Since then, we haven't heard any news on the collab tape but NBA Youngboy is a confirmed feature on I AM MUSIC.

I AM MUSIC [V1]

After the rollout of his collab tape with DJ Swamp Izzo was abruptly halted, Playboi Carti returned to the MUSIC concept in Q2 of 2023. He disappeared from social media and locked in, recording new songs for the album. That summer, he went on his annual festival run, performing at Wireless, Rolling Loud, and other smaller European festivals, where he previewed “POP.” Other than that, there was no real news about the album’s status.

On July 12, Carti announced the ANTAGONIST TOUR alongside OPIUM affiliates. Insiders later revealed that the tour was forced upon him by his label. Venues hosting the tour confirmed that MUSIC was set to drop before the tour kicked off on September 6. But not only was the tour repeatedly delayed—the album was never announced or released. A year later, insiders claimed an iteration of MUSIC was supposed to drop that summer, but for unknown reasons, it was scrapped. Tracks like PROBLEM CHILD and MOJO JOJO were rumored to be on that version of the album.

Instead of an actual tour, Carti held a pop-up “concert/hangout” in Atlanta for his 28th birthday (September 13, 2023). The event was a disaster. DJ Swamp Izzo was set to premiere Carti and Lil Uzi Vert’s VETEMENTS JEANS on his radio show, but at the last second, Carti told him not to play it. He later performed two new songs at the pop-up, VETEMENTS JEANS and PROBLEM CHILD. In October, he flew to Italy to work on Ye and Ty Dolla $ign’s VULTURES and made a few appearances on his spam account, but let’s be real, nobody cared

In December, after nearly three years of empty promises, Carti finally announced his album: I AM MUSIC. Most of the songs were recorded in the first week of December. He teased features and producers, including Pharrell and Kanye West, then dropped his lead single Different Day on December 9, marking his first release in nearly three years. Throughout December, he stayed active on Instagram and released 2024 and H00DBYAIR, heavily promoting a January 2024 release date.

Now, it wouldn’t be a Carti rollout without some chaos. Fans expected the album in January, at one point, it was even rumored to drop on January 5. But with VULTURES 1 rolling out at the same time, Carti delayed it. He kept fans engaged with more singles like BACKR00MS and EVILJ0RDAN and then appeared twice on VULTURES 1. In March, he featured on Future and Metro Boomin’s WE DON’T TRUST YOU and Camila Cabello’s I LUV IT… and then he vanished? In the middle of one of the most anticipated album rollouts in recent rap history, Carti just disappeared. No updates, no album, nothing. Insiders believe he scrapped his dirty Atlanta trap sound to perfect something new. But seriously, how do you fumble a rollout this bad?

I AM MUSIC [V2]

Carti would return in June and perform at Summer Smash, where he would preview a new song titled 'FUCK ON MY DJ', which was produced by F1LTHY and, most notably he would perform grail 'ALL RED'. He'd use this concert to resume the rollout of I AM MUSIC. People from Carti's team confirmed that the album was still dropping in 2024 despite rumors circulating that it was pushed back to 2025 he would continue being active throughout July and August until September when he started making more pushes to roll out his album. He'd have a big NBA promotion scheme where he would post fit pics of himself in retro NBA jerseys, and the teams that he would rep would tell him to release the album. He would then oddly have a separate rollout to promote 'ALL RED' which would be released on his birthday (September 13th). Why would he have a mega rollout just for ONE song? Not sure...

But from there, he would officially announce I AM MUSIC on his Instagram and would put out pre-orders for the album, but with a catch that nobody caught on. The description from the pre-order stated that "orders would be no later than 6 months from Sep 12, 2024"... So legally, Carti could release the album in 2025 and not 2024 like originally advertised. Jesus Christ, man. But he continued being active on Instagram and officially released a single in 'Timeless' with The Weeknd. Controversy later arose that Carti never recorded for the song and had Lawson record his verse for him and then run it through a Carti AI, but we could worry about that later. Then, he would release 'PLAY THIS' on Instagram and then would post a grand total of 72 FIT PICS before any release date was confirmed. He would then post about his upcoming Rolling Loud performance on December 15th, saying that he would perform his new album there, and he surprisingly kept his promise! 5 new songs were previewed, one of them titled 'CRUSH' featuring Travis Scott and it seemed like maybe I AM MUSIC would release in 2024, right?

Well, one Friday passed, Carti posted yet another fit pic, and then after that, he would just go SILENT. No posts, no stories, no nothing. The last Friday of 2024 came and went and there were no signs of the album releasing. Carti had lied to us again. As of typing this (February 19th, 2025) the release date for this album has yet to be revealed and it's looking like the album might release in March 7th, 2025 but again, how do you mess up a rollout this bad?

On January 31st, 00X0 collab for HURRY UP TOMMOROW was dropping n it turned out to be some bull shit fuck carti

NOTE: What makes this iteration different from V1 is the focus on sample-chop instrumentals instead of the dirty Atlanta trap sound that Carti was trying to push in early 2024. This iteration was heavily influenced by Kanye, and you can hear this influence in songs like 'BACKDOOR,' 'SHE DONT LEAVE' and 'LOVE GOT ME NUMB'. This was something that Carti brought back from the NARCISSIST era but because of sample-clearences, he never got it out in 2021. There's also more F1LTHY production and more importantly more use of the whisper voice, an evolution of the baby voice that Carti developed in 2023 instead of the notorious deep voice.
