The Atlanta rapper’s highly anticipated third album is a cause for celebration—especially now that his fans can also wear the Carti hoodies they ordered months ago.

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.

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.
