Miami, FL

Playboi Carti‘s upcoming album I AM MUSIC is officially around the corner — or at least a live performance of it is.

The Atlanta rapper announced on Tuesday (November 26) that he will perform the long-awaited project at Rolling Loud Miami next month.

Taking to the Instagram page of his record label Opium, Carti wrote: “MIAMI TEN YEAR ANNIVERSARY. I AM MUSIC WILL B PLAYED. KANT WAIT TO SEE YAL MFS NAH FR.”

Rolling Loud further fueled excitement by writing on X (formerly Twitter): “CARTI JUST PLAYED US SOME NEW MUSIC ON FACETIME. I AM MUSIC IS COMING,” before teasing song titles such as “RL00” and “00RLYVL FR.”

The festival takes place on the weekend of December 13-15 at Miami’s Hard Rock Stadium, with Playboi Carti headlining the Sunday night.

Other headliners include Future and Travis Scott, while the star-studded bill also boasts Metro Boomin, Lil Baby, Kodak Black, Sexyy Red and Lil Yachty, among others.

It’s unclear if I AM MUSIC will receive an official release before Rolling Loud Miami or if Carti intends on dropping it afterwards.

Anticipation for the album has been building all year thanks to a string of single releases, song previews and hints.

Since last December, King Vamp has shared half a dozen potential tracks from the project including “All Red,”“Backr00ms” featuring Travis Scott and the Kanye West-produced “2024.”

Most recently, he suggested that I AM MUSIC would be an entirely solo affair with no guest artists, telling a fan: “I’m trying to do that shit by myself.”

However, a tweet from Rolling Loud on Tuesday said: “Two of the songs he played got huge features on it,” although they didn’t specify who.

I AM MUSIC will serve as the follow-up to Carti’s sophomore album Whole Lotta Red, which arrived on Christmas Day in 2020.

Boasting cameos from Kanye West, Future and Kid Cudi across 24 tracks, the project marked a new commercial peak for the cult rapper, topping the Billboard 200 with 100,000 first-week units and being certified gold by the RIAA (Recording Industry Association of America).

Given the buzz surrounding his next album and his increased popularity since Whole Lotta Red, it’s likely that I AM MUSIC will propel Carti to even greater heights.
