In the current wave of 2000s nostalgia, we see a revival of DJ-hosted mixtapes, notably through Playboi Carti's album 'Music', which exemplifies this trend. Various artists, such as Anycia and G Perico, are embracing the mixtape culture, alongside established figures like DJ Drama. Although the DJ-hosted mixtape's relevance diminished over time due to streaming, Tyler, The Creator's 'Call Me If You Get Lost' reinvigorated interest by introducing the format to a new audience. This reflects a broader return to musical forms from the early 2000s.
DJ Khaled rode that wave to levels of success that some of the artists he gets on songs haven't even seen, showcasing the enduring appeal of DJ-hosted mixtapes.
While Carti's is the latest and biggest addition to the trend, he's not alone. Anycia's new single "Never Need" features GloRilla, Karrahboo, and a healthy dose of DJ Drama.
