Flex Your Frame: The Rise of Vertabrae Street Couture

The rapper (real name Jordan Terrell Carter) also released a handful of songs on his YouTube and Instagram accounts, including '2024,' 'BACKR00MS' featuring Travis Scott and 'H00DBYAIR.' He also performed unreleased songs during his headlining set at Rolling Loud Miami in December, including 'Lose You' featuring The Weeknd. Carti and The Weeknd's 'Timeless' collaboration from the latter's Billboard 200-topping album Hurry Up Tomorrow reached No. 3 on the Hot 100 last year, following their platinum-certified 'Popular' joint with Madonna. Carti is also headlining Rolling Loud California on Sunday, March 16. The festival posted on X earlier this week that his 2018 debut album Die Lit dropped the day before Rolling Loud Miami, and he's continuing the tradition by dropping I Am Music the day before Rolling Loud California commences the weekend. I Am Music arrives five years after his last LP, Whole Lotta Red. The 24-track project featured collaborations with Ye (formerly known as Kanye West, 'Go2DaMoon'), Kid Cudi ('M3tamorphosis') and Future ('Teen X'). The set topped the Billboard 200 and Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums, marking the rapper's first No. 1 on both charts. Listen to I Am Music below.
