Playboi Carti is set to perform at the Rolling Loud Miami festival on December 15, 2024. The rapper teased that songs from his new album, I Am Music, will be played at the festival performance in a teaser released on his label, Opium Record's Instagram page on November 27, 2024:
Fans have now reacted to that announcement on social media, expressing skepticism at it, as exemplified by the tweet below:
"watch him pullout last minute man"
Others remarked similarly, with some predicting that the singer will cancel his performance at the last minute, while others stated that it meant that the album will not be released before 2025:
"Not falling for it." one netizen stated.
"so this means he gon tease it more at RL and we’ll most likely not get it this year…." another netizen stated.
"this pretty much only means he’ll play tracks off the album and then still won’t release it." one fan reacted.
"A logical person would use this as the final promo for his album and actually play unheard songs from IAMMUSIC and then drop it on the upcoming friday.. don’t fumble this carti, idk what more u need" another fan advised the rapper.
"We all know he'll cancel 30 minutes before due to 'travel issues'" one commenter stated.
