Playboi Carti's much-awaited album, I AM MUSIC, is expected to release on 14th March 2025 at 3 AM EST, and fans cannot keep calm.
Rumors about the album have been circulating since December 2023 since the initial announcement. The prolonged wait had fans come up with alleged release dates, collaborators, and themes.
However, Playboi Carti did not confirm any information, just subtle hints about the album. He made a cryptic post that said nothing but the album's name. The three-word post restored a fan's faith who had been waiting for over a year. On the other hand, Spotify billboards flashed 'I AM MUSIC' once in a while.
By now, a notable fragment of the audience started to give up on the idea due to the absence of an official release announcement. Some even claimed that the whole affair was a hoax or that Carti doesn't even have an album. The Internet was already exhausted from chasing something that isn't confirmed.
Recent rumors implied that the album would be released this Friday, but this time, the skepticism took the best of Playboi Carti fans. Many were even concerned about the sales if the album didn't drop. However, I AM MUSIC's official social media pages confirmed the rumors. The album shall be released on the 7th.
Also, Playboi Carti hinted at releasing two albums instead of one, fueling the hype.
Fans who waited for months were convinced to wait for a few more hours until 12 am. However, many overlooked the fact that Playboy Carti didn't reveal that the wait would be over at midnight. In fact, reports suggest that it will be dropping at 3 AM EST.
