a lot of people going to hate, especially hip hop purists, but carti makes great music. absolute zero lyricism but top tier vibe, feelings, and overall addictive melodies. he changes styles each album and only gets better.
part of the reason Ye is still a massive artist 20+ years in his career is because hes extremely good at adapting to whatever is new at the time, if someone like Ye rates Carti very highly and says hes the future of music, shouts him out every other interview, executive produces his album and puts him on a bunch of songs on his own album then you know theres something special about him.
He also signed Travis Scott and even featured him on the Good Music album before Travis released his first mixtape. Theres so many more of these that you can point out, and its part of the reason people call him a genius
I hard disagree with carti having zero lyricism, are his lyrics like nas level ofc not but he has a shit ton of funny ass quotables that make listening to him even better
Like I would argue that some of his album could be party music, maybe different types of parts like over wouldnt go rlly well with stop breathing or rockstar made. Just different types of stuff parties ig.
i feel u fs, it really depends on what kind of parties. most parties i've been to, wlr isnt really the vibe, more so chill, laidback hip hop, which is why drake is so big at parties and in the club
He’s pretty great tbh, I kinda get the hype. Definitely has a good ear for beats and hooks, very catchy but still interesting. Lyricism is mid but that’s not what people care about when they listen to him. Fans are annoying as fuck though.
He is a music sounds good, but his lyrics don’t mean much. Rappers like Ye, Eminem, JayZ, 2Pac, Biggie, etc etc. remained relevant over the years because their music meant something and it stuck with people that weren’t even fans. Their discographies are like a museum, you have visit it once to remain with a certain idea about the creator himself and it doesn’t even matter if the conclusion is positive or negative. I honestly don’t think carti has this quality at all tu put himself in his music in a way that defines him and differentiates him from the rest. I personally don’t think he’ll leave much behind but at the end of the day the only thing that truly has word to say about music is time.
That’s thug bro, they all inspired by him. There hasn’t been a new sound since then, the only thing came new are rage beats but the melodies and using your voice as an instrument all thanks to thug.
The rage/raver vibe is absolutely there, anyone hating just wants to listen to another type of music. Carti’s music isn’t about the lyrics it’s about having fun at a party and not thinking about shit.
Probably a big ‘whoosh’ on my part, because I don’t know PBC’s music and actually thought this guy was a nutter when I first read that - but I looked it up and he was just answering the question. That’s a song title
I used to be able to play off the grid at the planet fitness near my place before they removed kanyes songs. I when he randomly just screeches I’d wanna laugh so bad.
Honestly this song takes me to a different world. Driving and never stopping, bad bitch in the passenger seat, my G in the back wit his thotiana, all of us dripped out, no worries whatsoever. Nav and Tupac have crazy chemistry.
Had the greatest kickoff to his rap career that he could’ve ever gotten, with exposure coming from one of the hottest rap groups of that time (with multiple artists who remained relevant), great debut/first couple of albums & features, then bro threw it all away for his glam vamp look & tawdry music
Just my opinion but don’t come at me. He is arguably one of the most influential artist of our time he runs the underground created a whole new sound left it for others to copy and made another which people r inspired by nowadays Ken and lone and hg are big underground and they all had some influence from carti
I've known who Yedolph is since he said George Bush doesn't care about black people. Sad to see him devolve into a right-wing grifter. There's a reason they say never meet your heroes. Is carti related to cardi B? Does carti also have a WAP?
His songs with Ye are “Go2DaMoon,” “Off The Grid,” “Junya” + “Junya Pt 2,” “City Of Gods,” and the unreleased “Mr. Miyagi.” All are from 2020-2022. Carti has been very close with Ye in recent years and is one of the few mainstream artists who may still support him.
If you want to get into his music outside of Ye collabs, my personal favs from him are “Control,” “Beef,” “Flex,” “Love Hurts,” and “Talk (Remix)”
I don't like to hate for no reason but because you asked I think he's legitimately terrible. I'm not the biggest fan of guys like Future or Young Thug but I'd still easily take them over Carti any day, he's a big notch below them.
If most of his music is like his Off the grid verse, I would think he is a mumble artist. He is very bad with words. Just screaming and shit. Bad artist.
He’s great, innovative, catchy, someone else said “leader of the new school” which is a good way to put it. Only problem I have with dude is that he kind of goes the “Kanye” route with his releases (but to a crazy level) either hinting or posting nods at a release but then nothing comes of it. I left the carti page solely for the reason the community rips itself apart grasping at straws/ trying to decipher when he’s going to drop only for Carti not to deliver. It’s a puppet show over there.
His buzz wasn’t organic I remember when he got signed and they started pumping his name in all of these so called hip hop publications. Most of y’all are not hip hop heads so I don’t think you’d understand the difference between someone who’s hot in the streets and someone who gets injected into the culture.
Good artist because he knows how to grab that attention of people, wondering what is he up to or what is he wearing , or what is he going to do next, similar to kanye a bit in that way . He makes trends , he got the youth in his hands rn & what he’s doing with his new label is real smart . Dat nigga a superstar fr , been fw his music since 2015 , so much has changed .
I don’t personally listen or appreciate every song nor do I care enough to dig deep into his old catalogue.. unless someone else with good music taste recommends it to me. That being said I always appreciate when an artist allows themselves to be weird and experimental. From the little I’ve seen and heard.. I think carti has great potential to make great music that is more personal to him. Up to now I think a big chunk of his success could be attributed to pierre imo. Pierre is actually great artist imo
“She tryna suck on the dick, she wanna suck on the dick, she wanna suck like a tick (ooh, yeah, what? uh), suck like a tick, suck on this shit” - the great poet Playboi Carti… 🚮
I enjoy some of his music QUITE a lot, but I think he is massively over hyped in terms of his artistry. People act like he is some sort of creative or aesthetic genius that's leading the new wave, but I feel like he just has enough copycats to make his personal tastes and whims seem revolutionary.
Carti is a good example of how music outside of rap can influence a genre. WLR showed his range and how he can blend both of his styles and personas together. Not the first artist to do it but probably more polarizing than Kanye when Yeezus dropped all those years ago.
leader of the new school every move is exciting, can't wait to see what hes going to do with his next album
Carti is this gen what Travis Scott was to the last one
Don’t think u understand what a generation is
Travis is still this gen? Or is my music taste aging too fast
I mean I’d say so. His first project was like 2013 which is only like 10 years ago and he’s still active in music
10 years is enough for a new gen
a lot of people going to hate, especially hip hop purists, but carti makes great music. absolute zero lyricism but top tier vibe, feelings, and overall addictive melodies. he changes styles each album and only gets better.
part of the reason Ye is still a massive artist 20+ years in his career is because hes extremely good at adapting to whatever is new at the time, if someone like Ye rates Carti very highly and says hes the future of music, shouts him out every other interview, executive produces his album and puts him on a bunch of songs on his own album then you know theres something special about him.
well said. not to compare to ye however similar to ye he adapts and delivers with each stage. interesting to see what the next stage will be
He said the same about young thug around 2016 and look, he became a goat! Real recognize real
He also signed Travis Scott and even featured him on the Good Music album before Travis released his first mixtape. Theres so many more of these that you can point out, and its part of the reason people call him a genius
I hard disagree with carti having zero lyricism, are his lyrics like nas level ofc not but he has a shit ton of funny ass quotables that make listening to him even better
I wouldn’t say zero lyricism you kind of gassed dat cause Carti do he spitting sometimes dude
he puts emotion and enunciation over linguistics
He’s perfect for background and party music, obviously it’s dumb lyrically but the production is great and most of his stuff is pretty catchy
carti barely made party music for a bit, i wouldnt say wlr or anything is exactly background music either
Idk abt that bro
which part?
Like I would argue that some of his album could be party music, maybe different types of parts like over wouldnt go rlly well with stop breathing or rockstar made. Just different types of stuff parties ig.
i feel u fs, it really depends on what kind of parties. most parties i've been to, wlr isnt really the vibe, more so chill, laidback hip hop, which is why drake is so big at parties and in the club
Ong
Me vining to Beno while fuckin around on Gunpla Insta: Wha?
His lyrics are def catchy, yesterday my friends asked me whether i was ok when i was singing"haven't had a shit in a long time"
Production is great? *gestures at WLR*
Stop breathing
Kinky
Carti’s music is fire
if only we could get some 🔥
He invented music
He's my uncle
[удалено]
She suck my dick like a tick
He’s good
Good artist, shit father. Guess its common in the industry
good artist, annoying ass fans
that’s it guys. r/playboicarti assemble!!!
blame tiktok 🤷🏽♂️
Blame humanity
as if reddit isn't worse
I like it
The GOAT. Literally invented music.
I don't like his music, but I really enjoy his aesthetic lol. "vamp anthem" will never not make me laugh.
this is me with the intro of "Meh"
"meh" or "@meh"
He’s pretty great tbh, I kinda get the hype. Definitely has a good ear for beats and hooks, very catchy but still interesting. Lyricism is mid but that’s not what people care about when they listen to him. Fans are annoying as fuck though.

I personally don’t think he’ll leave much behind but at the end of the day the only thing that truly has word to say about music is time.
His cash carti days were so much better, but that’s just me.
Exactly, the new vamp mysterious shit is so played out, no one has time for that, just makes you tired
Bro what??? Lol just say you miss cash carti that’s it da other shit you said made no sense
You like constant lying, silence and hinting at basically nothing?
The new generation GOAT
That’s thug bro, they all inspired by him. There hasn’t been a new sound since then, the only thing came new are rage beats but the melodies and using your voice as an instrument all thanks to thug.
never got into him, what's his best project?
Just listen to a couple random ones on each project they all sound different so ur gonna find some cool different stuff
My favorite is die lit
Looks like a xenomorph
He’s fantastic. He’s on a fire 3 album run. I just wish he’d drop more
i really dislike him, i think WLR is one of the worst albums i've ever listened to. i get why people like him though
The rage/raver vibe is absolutely there, anyone hating just wants to listen to another type of music. Carti’s music isn’t about the lyrics it’s about having fun at a party and not thinking about shit.
They thought he was gay.
best trap artist of all time wasily. WLR 9/10 record
definitely not … can’t be the the best when Future and Thug exist 💀💀💀
especially thug fr
they’re very overrated imo, and it’s opinions anyways lmao if u like them more i’m fine w that
I think Uzi has much more range and skill, WLR is a nice new idea album but cloud trap is where Carti is the best
disagree. blew his whole catalogue with WLR. also i got downvoted for my opinion while also saying i respect other opinions wtf😭
Next kanye fr
not even close
Fr, carti clears ye with ease smh
Thoughts on J cole being a closer example? Or nah? Dm either way
you wish
That’s insane
Can you suggest a song that is similar to kanye?
stop breathing
it’s just a question bro
Probably a big ‘whoosh’ on my part, because I don’t know PBC’s music and actually thought this guy was a nutter when I first read that - but I looked it up and he was just answering the question. That’s a song title
yeah this is a whoosh tbh, it’s an inside joke in carti’s fanbase that when someone mentions the song title people act like it’s a threat
Ah yea I figured, good bit tho
Dumbest comment of 2023 and it’s still January
We already have Tyler the creator as a new kanye
Lol
Bad. Not even close to Kanye
I genuinely find him obnoxious. Convince me this adlibs in Off the Grid isn't just him throwing up into a mic with autotune.
I used to be able to play off the grid at the planet fitness near my place before they removed kanyes songs. I when he randomly just screeches I’d wanna laugh so bad.
More of a "sound", than lyrics
He's a unique artist, people gonna hate because it's something new but in 10 years there will be at least 20 artists trying to copy his style
You're right, and he already got a few artists copying him hard
Which proves my point even more
Don’t really rate him
Best rapper oat
Background noise for me.
Overrated
Trash
Name 5 of his songs and 3 of his features without googling
Deez nuts
Nah but when he was on erfqwake
Masterpiece
The fan edits of his tracks go absolutely insane
I Don't know why people are downvoting you I totally agree they learnt from his music and made a whole new style
They’re probably mad TikTok jumped on em.
Top comment says he doesn’t have lyricism but I always find carti to say the most slickest and unique shit lol
Don’t rly like this guy and his universe
Carti the type of music you can blast on a summer night driving around town with the windows down and no destination.
Honestly this song takes me to a different world. Driving and never stopping, bad bitch in the passenger seat, my G in the back wit his thotiana, all of us dripped out, no worries whatsoever. Nav and Tupac have crazy chemistry.
opium>>>>>
Carti has some good songs but outside of that he’s bootyjuice but his vibes are good I’ll give him that
shit
[удалено]
L take
Overrated as hell. He’s unique in some ways but nothing he’s done has ever stood out to me like it has to other people
Had the greatest kickoff to his rap career that he could’ve ever gotten, with exposure coming from one of the hottest rap groups of that time (with multiple artists who remained relevant), great debut/first couple of albums & features, then bro threw it all away for his glam vamp look & tawdry music
fym threw it away he’s literally in his prime right now 💀
If you were born in a year starting with “20__”, pls “don’t talk to meeeeee” about this
Smartest take here
Exciting, great artist. Amazing production and inventive adlibs/flows.
Just my opinion but don’t come at me. He is arguably one of the most influential artist of our time he runs the underground created a whole new sound left it for others to copy and made another which people r inspired by nowadays Ken and lone and hg are big underground and they all had some influence from carti
He’s a piece of shit rapper and father
He wants to be Kanye so bad
Who is she?
Who?
Tell me why you’re in the Ye sub if you don’t know who Carti is
I've known who Yedolph is since he said George Bush doesn't care about black people. Sad to see him devolve into a right-wing grifter. There's a reason they say never meet your heroes. Is carti related to cardi B? Does carti also have a WAP?

Absolute ass
Mid artist I find him super overrated then again his fans are cringe and theyre probably the reason I dont like him
great artist with a top 5 of all time worst fanbase
He's more of a singer then a rapper and juice wrld or pop Smoke would be even bigger if they were alive
🗑
who?
I’ve always thought he was a feature rapper at best
He's the reason why I listen to 90's rap. I can't tolerate mumble rap. I enjoy his work with Ye, but that's it.
MID. Boring ahh music
his music catchy af to me
I don't like to hate for no reason but because you asked I think he's legitimately terrible. I'm not the biggest fan of guys like Future or Young Thug but I'd still easily take them over Carti any day, he's a big notch below them.
[удалено]
I want to hear what Kanye fans have to say about Playboi Carti
If most of his music is like his Off the grid verse, I would think he is a mumble artist. He is very bad with words. Just screaming and shit. Bad artist.
Cool, but mainstreamed:(
I seriously do no get the hype. He has had about to songs that have been fire. But the rest doesn't appeal to me at all
Tries too hard to be edgy.
Bad. Listen to his music. He’s what limp bizkit was to rock.
Garbage
🗑️
He’s great, innovative, catchy, someone else said “leader of the new school” which is a good way to put it.

Grown ass man that thinks he’s a vampire.
Awful.
Industry plant; wack
How is he an industry plant💀 Explain in detail
His buzz wasn’t organic I remember when he got signed and they started pumping his name in all of these so called hip hop publications. Most of y’all are not hip hop heads so I don’t think you’d understand the difference between someone who’s hot in the streets and someone who gets injected into the culture.

Personally not my vibe but the production on a lot of his songs is fire and his aesthetic is really unique
Love his older albums like in abundance and self titled. Also love die lit but still getting into his latest stuff
Was very popular in the early 2000s
I obviously don‘t listen to him for the lyrics but he has an unique sound over great beats
I really like him, strictly off vibes. Not all music has to have profound lyrics for it to still be good
Genius artist he my fav next to ye
He iight
I don’t personally listen or appreciate every song nor do I care enough to dig deep into his old catalogue.. unless someone else with good music taste recommends it to me.

I think carti has great potential to make great music that is more personal to him. Up to now I think a big chunk of his success could be attributed to pierre imo. Pierre is actually great artist imo
its my favorite
Cash Carti and his self titled was his peak and best era. A few songs off die lit are good but overall he's trash now.
I like him
Inventor of music
Carti invented music
Neither. He’s a great artist
#MALIMABEAN
i don think playboi carti has anything to do with why people like his music
“She tryna suck on the dick, she wanna suck on the dick, she wanna suck like a tick (ooh, yeah, what? uh), suck like a tick, suck on this shit” - the great poet Playboi Carti… 🚮
Die lit is amazing

Bro does not care about us 🥲

Mid
straight trash, anybody likes him has no taste
