Playboi Carti’s newly released album MUSIC has broken Spotify’s most-streamed album in a single day record for 2025 so far.
“Carti’s MUSIC is already making history,” Spotify said in a post on X/Twitter announcing the stat. Spotify supported the rollout of the Atlanta rapper’s album with huge billboards across major cities including Los Angeles, New York City, and Miami. Those billboards contained messages like ‘STREETS READY,’ ‘SORRY4 DA WAIT’ and ‘I AM MUSIC MF.’
Playboi Carti dropped his single “All Red” before the official release of MUSIC on March 14. That single reached #15 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and #3 on Billboard’s Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart. The album features several high-profile stars collaborating with Carti including Young Thug, Travis Scott, Future, Kendrick Lamar, The Weeknd, Lil Uzi Vert, Skepta, and Ty Dolla $ign. Producers who worked on the album include Cardo, Metro Boomin, Southside, F1lthy, Ye, Cash Cobain, and Ojivolta, among others.
The 30-track album drops five years after Carti’s last album, Whole Lotta Red, which topped the Billboard 200 and Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums charts when it debuted in 2020. Meanwhile, Playboi Carti is set to headline Rolling Loud California tonight. The festival bragged that Carti’s 2018 debut album Die Lit dropped just the day before Rolling Loud Miami. Now Carti appears to be continuing that tradition by dropping his latest music before taking the stage at Rolling Loud California.
Kendrick Lamar is listed only as a feature on the song “Good Credit,” but he also guests on “Mojo Jojo” and “backd00r.” Travis Scott also appears on three songs on the album including “Crush,” “Philly,” “and Wake Up F1lthy.” The Weeknd features on “Rather Lie,” Skepta on “Toxic,” and Future on “Charge Dem Hoes a Fee” and Trim.” Lil Uzi Vert appears on “Jumpin” and “Twin Trim.” Meanwhile Ty Dolla $ign and Young Thug both have verses on “We Need All Da Vibes.”
