Music (also referred to as I Am Music, both stylized in all caps) is the third studio album by the American rapper Playboi Carti. It was released on March 14, 2025, through AWGE and Interscope Records. A trap album, it marks a stylistic shift from the "baby voice" vocal approach of Carti’s previous studio album, Whole Lotta Red (2020), toward a deeper and raspier delivery, while retaining elements associated with early 2000s Atlanta mixtape culture.
The standard version of Music consists of 30 tracks and features guest appearances from Travis Scott, the Weeknd, Kendrick Lamar, Jhené Aiko, Skepta, Future, Lil Uzi Vert, Ty Dolla Sign, and Young Thug, as well as hosting from DJ Swamp Izzo. Production was handled by Ojivolta, Cardo, and F1lthy, alongside Bnyx, Maaly Raw, Metro Boomin, Wheezy, and members of 808 Mafia, including TM88 and Southside. Carti announced the completion of the album on March 9, 2025, after an extended production period, and confirmed its release date on March 12, following promotional teasers by Spotify.
Music received generally positive reviews from music critics, who praised the production and Carti's vocal performances, though some criticized its inconsistency and runtime. Music topped several charts worldwide, and debuted at number one on the US Billboard 200. It earned 298,000 album-equivalent units in its first week, becoming Carti's second number-one and his fastest-selling album. It was supported by the single "Rather Lie", featuring the Weeknd. A deluxe edition of the album, titled Music - Sorry 4 Da Wait, was released on March 25, 2025, featuring four additional tracks.
