Whole Lotta Red - Playboi Carti
Intro:
Love him or hate him, Playboi Carti is one of Hip-Hop’s most polarizing & influential figures. After 2 years of waiting & constant leaked songs, his highly awaited album Whole Lotta Red is finally here. Playboi Carti is an Atlanta native that has been in the rap industry during the last 5 years. Personally, I’m a huge fan of his work (after spending years trashing him). Despite this, I’ve put my bias aside during my listening sessions for this review.
Overall:
Playboi Carti is getting a lot of slander for an album I actually believe is pretty great. Granted, I can hear & understand why a lot of longtime fans were disappointed in the final version of Whole Lotta Red. Any album with massive hype & expectations is already at a disadvantage, as far as living up to the fans’ liking. Regardless, I think Carti has delivered another unique trap project & has pushed his sound into new areas along the way.
