CRITIC REVIEWS
80
Carti is focused more on the energy of his records rather than the deeper meaning. Nevertheless, the rapper delivers a debut opus indicative of his brand, where good vibes, an escape from reality and flexing can be found.
73
The young Atlanta rapper’s debut mixtape finds a cloudy and economical mood and stays there, but it’s Carti’s magnetic confidence that turns just enough into plenty.
60
Playboi Carti ... does not break new ground ... but as an exercise in the millennial id delivered in Cam’ronian laziness, it’s sure a hell of a lot of fun.
58
There’s not much range here, just an excess of swag, but it’s worth a listen solely for the moments where Carti seems to accidentally stumble upon a wild flow (“Dothatshit!”), or an irresistible infection (“Half & Half”).
Please do me a favour and name a more bone-chilling line in music than:
“Walked in with Ashanti.
Damn, that look like 'Shanti.
Damn, that look like Carti. I think that be Yung Carti"
Good tape from Carti with highlights ingrained throughout.
