Playboi Carti is known for keeping a low profile, but over the past few weeks he’s been out and about, seemingly promoting his new album. I am musicThe Atlanta rapper’s decision to wear various NBA jerseys lately could be a hint at features on his new album.
Playboi Carti’s NBA look could hint at album features
Since Playboi Carti hit the streets of New York City last week (September 5) and began posting photos of himself in NBA jerseys in the highlights section of his Instagram page, it’s been obvious that he’s eschewed the usual black, black, and black when it comes to his outfits. Carti caught the attention of fans and sports enthusiasts alike when he recently began hitting the stage in the colorful mix of jerseys. Some of his followers suspect that the ATL rhymer’s decision to rock the jerseys are hints about the features on his album.
Although Carti has not spoken about his new style or confirmed whether it is a hint of new music, that hasn’t stopped his fans from drawing their own conclusions. @PloybertCortia Playboi Carti fan account on X, formerly known as Twitter, believes that the jerseys are features of his I am music Album due to be released later this year.
According to this fan, Carti putting on the Philadelphia 76ers jersey could be a reference to a collaboration with Lil Uzi Vert.
“Playboi Carti could announce the features of ‘I AM MUSIC’ through the NBA teams featured on the jerseys he wears.
Philadelphia 76ers = Lil Uzi Vert
Toronto Raptors = The Weeknd
Atlanta Hawks = Future
Brooklyn Nets = JAY-Z
Orlando Magic = DJ Khaled
Some of these are probably not accurate, but hopefully you get what I’m trying to say,” the account tweeted on September 9.
The chances of Jay-Z or DJ Khaled appearing on a Playboi Carti album are zero, but Lil Uzi Vert, Future and The Weeknd are not far behind. Carti and Uzi’s long-awaited 16*29 The joint album was never released, meaning there are still unreleased songs from both artists in their archives. The Weeknd and Carti just debuted a new collaborative song at the singer’s Brazil show last weekend. Neither has confirmed where the track will land, so it’s not far-fetched that it will end up on I am musicAnd since both Carti and Future are from Atlanta, they may have bonded in the studio over time.
There can be no truth to the fanfiction either. The excitement surrounding Playboi Carti’s project is only growing, and the longer he stays silent, the more his rap followers will cling to whatever they can get their hands on. For now, it’s all just speculation. You’ll have to wait a few more months to see what King Vamp has in store when his highly anticipated album drops.
