Playboi Carti - Whole Lotta Red (December 25, 2020) Album

Merry Christmas!

 

Can we thank Mario Judah for this?

 

It's fire

 

Only seven tracks in but this is incredible so far, beat on Slay3r goes

 

I don’t wanna spoil the last track for anyone but holy shit

 

"You always askin' for Buddha, you a Budapest"

I deadass had to stop the track and replay that just to make sure I heard it right, jesus Kanye lmao

 

fantastic record, kanye verse should be launched into the ocean tho

 

This is ridiculously good. He even got a vintage Kanye verse.

This is great.

 

How well does this work as an album for everyone? I like Carti well enough but I've never found that his music makes for a good front-to-back experience and I'd get exhausted from listening to almost any artist for 24 tracks at over an hour of time, let alone Playboi Carti.

I guess I'll just have to find out myself though.

 

To be honest, I actually think this flows decently. There's enough variation throughout that it doesn't get stale and none of the songs are that long (a lot are below 2 minutes). Not every one is a winner but it's largely really good stuff.

 

it flows really well. fast hour

 

lots of weird pockets that reveal themselves over successive listens. total cyborg production. what a record

 

First listen - I hated this. On subsequent listens, a few tracks are starting to work for me. I still think is pretty bad tbh but Idk maybe if I keep trying it will grow....

 

“On That Time” is just so good.

“Slay3r” is really where everything starts to snap into place.

 

This is a very good banger in the car

 

All of the 16-20 year olds that I work with are very disappointed with this album which is weird because while not amazing or anything, it's my favourite full Carti project for sure.

Old Heads for Carti

 

Production on the album is pretty crazy and feels pretty fresh for some reason

 

The beat in “control” is very nice.

 

Well I’ll be damned. This finally clicked for me last night while I was playing COD. This album is great... and I straight up hated it in first listen

 

this is easily his best album by a country mile

ILoveUIHateU or Slay3r is probably my favorite track but Vamp Anthem might be the one that gets me the most hyped

 

hated Teen X at first but it's grown on me so much

 

Stop Breathing is the hardest song I’ve heard in a long time
