Jordan Terrell Carter (born September 13, 1995),[a] known professionally as Playboi Carti, is an American rapper. An influential figure among his generation, he has contributed to the progression of trap music and its rage subgenre.[8] He first signed with local underground record label Awful Records in 2014, and later signed with ASAP Mob's record label AWGE, in a joint venture with Interscope Records two years later.[9] Carter gained mainstream attention following the release of his eponymous debut mixtape (2017), which peaked at number 12 on the U.S. Billboard 200 and spawned the Billboard Hot 100-charting singles "Magnolia" and "Wokeuplikethis" (featuring Lil Uzi Vert).
Carter's debut studio album Die Lit (2018) saw further commercial success, peaking at number three on the Billboard 200. Following a two-year hiatus, his second studio album, Whole Lotta Red (2020) debuted atop the chart and was met with positive reviews; it was listed as among the best albums of that year by Rolling Stone and The Washington Post, with Rolling Stone ranking it on their list of the "200 Greatest Hip-Hop Albums of All Time".[10][11][12][13] He guest performed on ¥$'s 2024 single, "Carnival", which became his first song to peak atop the Billboard Hot 100. Carter is scheduled to release his third studio album, I Am Music.
Aside from his recording career, Carter founded the record label and rap collective Opium in 2019, through which he has signed aesthetically-similar fellow Atlanta-based rappers Ken Carson and Destroy Lonely, as well as the trap duo Homixide Gang.[14]
