Playboi Carti has once again shattered the boundaries of music and human comprehension with his latest work, “MUSIC.” This 30 track masterpiece isn’t just an album–it is an odyssey through the uncharted territories of sound, a journey that leaves listeners questioning their very existence.
From the opening track, “POP OUT,” which may or may not have been a distorted sample of a goat bleating, it was evident that we were in for something revolutionary. The production is beyond cutting edge. The 808s are so powerful that they physically knocked my headphones out of my ears. Genuinely genius work.
Carti’s lyrics? Transcendent.
On “OPM BABI,” he vocalizes: “Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh.” I wept.
Critics may argue that this album is “incoherent” or “a disappointment after not dropping for four years.” To them, I say that you simply don’t get it. This isn’t just music; it is a movement, a mindset, and a ritualistic experience that reshapes your soul. I give “MUSIC” a perfect 10/10, and I strongly suggest readers clear their schedules and isolate themselves in a dark room to listen to it. Playboi Carti has not just dropped an album. He has gifted us a masterpiece.
