American rapper Playboi Carti has sparked excitement worldwide, including among Pakistan’s hip-hop fans, by teasing that his fourth studio album, BABY BOI, is nearing release. Today Pakistan News reports on the Atlanta artist’s latest move, announced just hours after dropping his third album, MUSIC, on March 14, 2025.
Carti, known for his boundary-pushing trap sound, took to Instagram late Friday, posting a screenshot of MUSIC’s 30 tracks charting on Apple Music, captioned, “All 30 thank you so muchhh. BABY BOI OTW.” The cryptic “OTW” (on the way) hint, paired with earlier posts like “Can y’all handle two albums in a year?” (since deleted), has fans speculating a rapid follow-up. “He’s unpredictable, but this feels real,” says Lahore-based music enthusiast Omar Khan.
MUSIC, Carti’s first release in over four years since Whole Lotta Red (2020), features heavyweights like Kendrick Lamar and Travis Scott, cementing his influence. BABY BOI, teased since mid-2024 via snippets like “SHE DON’T LEAVE,” promises a mix of Whole Lotta Red’s experimental edge and his self-titled mixtape’s raw vibe, per X posts. With leaks and insider buzz (e.g., heavenorhell’s June 2024 claim), anticipation is sky-high.
For Pakistan, where Carti’s global reach resonates with a growing rap scene, this news fuels cultural chatter. “His style inspires our artists,” Khan adds. No release date is set, but Carti’s pattern of surprise drops keeps fans on edge. Today Pakistan News will track this story—share your hype at todaypakinews@gmail.com!
