The Five New Playboi Carti Songs, Ranked | Defector
Briefly

"Since his proper mixtape debut in 2017, Carti has been fine-tuning strange, off-kilter sounds and then dumping them to try and perfect something else. He's taken his music from the light, human-cartoon bounce of Pierre Bourne-produced tracks to vampire iconography and Yeezus-influenced gothic rage music. It's a musical journey on par with the last 40 minutes of 2001: A Space Odyssey. It can also make being a fan of his just as much of a journey and undertaking. Whole swaths of his music are completely unappealing to the average listener, and there are even swaths of his music unappealing to his fans-at least at first. Sometimes it takes a minute to adjust to his particular style and wavelength. But for myself, I keep coming back because it is just so damn interesting."
