Fans await ‘BABY BOI’ as Carti gears up for tour

Since March, Carti has been dropping hints about the album through short clips, public appearances, and posts on social media. Although not much is known, many believe it'll go hand-in-hand with his latest release, MUSIC, and its expanded version.

Industry insiders have hinted that the album is complete. Back in August, DJ Swamp Izzo told a fan it was ready. Carti's girlfriend, Giovanna "Gio" Ramos, also said the work was finished. Even with these updates, Carti is known for pushing back release dates. This leaves fans unsure when to expect anything official.

The Brooklyn celebration fueled renewed speculation, with some believing the event doubled as a preview of what could be included in BABY BOI. Rumors had already suggested the possibility of a release aligned with the artist’s birthday, though no confirmation has been made.

The anticipation for new music arrives as Carti prepares to launch his upcoming Antagonist Tour. Beginning October 3, the tour will support MUSIC and feature 28 dates across multiple cities.

It also marks the first time Carti will headline alongside all signees from his Opium collective, including Ken Carson and Destroy Lonely. This run will be his first major headlining tour since 2021, adding to the growing momentum around his unreleased material.

For now, fans await official word on BABY BOI, while the performance of “Wicked / Killers” provides a glimpse of what might be next in Carti’s catalog.
