Playboi Carti

Playboi Carti is the stage name of rapper, songwriter, and singer Jordan Terrell Carter. Born September 13, 1996^[1], in Atlanta, Georgia, he is known for his experimental type of rap music, falling under the subgenres of trap music and cloud rap. His songs often incorporate incomprehensible sentences over trap beats, focusing on creating a certain atmosphere and invoking certain feelings rather than rap with expressive lyricism and messages.

The rapper, popular among youth, often adds violent, drug-related, and immoral messages in his music^[2], which may contribute, if grouped with many other rappers who also add the same types of themes in their artistry, to higher levels of violence and possible substance abuse.^[3] He also includes Satanic imagery and messages in his music^[4][5], although it has not been fully confirmed that the rapper is a Satanist.
