Allegations of violence surrounding high-profile artists — a 2022 domestic-abuse charge levied against Lil Uzi Vert met with a plea of no contest, and a 2023 felony aggravated assault charge against Carti was later reported as dismissed — imply that abrasive views on these records come from somewhere real and worrying.

After umpteen months of vague promises and biffed deadlines, Playboi Carti’s newest opus finally materialized the other day like a transmission from the edge of oblivion — and with one last-minute tweak.

Playboi Carti came to play with his new album Music. On Friday, the same day the rapper dropped his long-awaited third studio album, he also broke a Spotify record. The audio streaming giant shared on Saturday that Music became Spotify’s most-streamed album in a single day in 2025 so far.

Benny Blanco thinks his fiancée Selena Gomez is so bad "she can't even go outside," and he's using a page out of Playboi Carti's book to prove it.

Benny Blanco jokes that he is fiancée Selena Gomez's "personal journal" ahead of their album releasing on Friday, March 21. The couple collaborated on 'I Said I Love You First.'

Selena Gomez's return to recording (with fiance Benny Blanco) tops this week's batch of new music releases, joined by albums from Pop Evil, My Morning Jacket, Stereophonics, Tamino, the late Kinky Friedman and others.

Kanye West went nuclear on the superstar rappers of today in another one of his Twitter tirades (now known as X).

Kanye West isn't happy over Playboi Carti's request to his ex-wife Kim Kardashian that his daughter, North West, provide a new song on his upcoming album, and took to X to vent his frustrations at his former friend and frequent collaborator.
