The worst feeling the world is waiting, and it seems like Playboi Carti has mastered this art. He has become the undisputed King of delays and the Prince of procrastination. The man sees no problem in making his fanbase wait for a simple album, and this is not new to him.

After releasing his debut album Die Lit in 2018, he tested everyone's patience by making them wait for two whole years before releasing his sophomore album Whole Lotta Red in 2020. But this time, he has upped his game and decided to test their loyalty by making them wait five years for his album I AM MUSIC.

He teased the album, gave fans many dates for its release, and even made pre-orders available, which he later had to refund, all the while having no intention to release the album. He just said, 'Oh my bad, bro' and walked off as if nothing happened.

Imagine pre-ordering an album with the expectation of listening to some bangers you have been waiting for ages, only to wake up with a refund notification. The only right thing for Playboi Carti to do after this would have been to tell his fans to look towards the camera and wave because they were pranked.

And just when fans thought the music Gods had finally blessed them with this album, Playboi Carti delays the album further. The only wait more frustrating than this is the wait for GTA 6. At this pace, fans might see a Rihanna album drop before him.

At this point, Carti's album has become like dinosaurs; we hear tales about it but never really see it. Despite everything, Carti is a true hustler and is not letting his fans lose hope in him. According to his promises, the album is slated to be released this year, but fans have already moved on from his empty promises.

They have expressed their distress with hilarious memes that have set the internet on fire. Here are some of them that will make you LOL.
