Jordan Terrell Carter (born September 13, 1995), known professionally as Playboi Carti, is an American rapper, singer, songwriter and record producer from Atlanta, Georgia. His rapper name was Sir Cartier because of the luxury brand Cartier then a girl told his he is on some playboi "stuf" hence his name Playboi Carti. Carter was initially signed to local underground label Awful Records prior to signing with ASAP Mob's AWGE Label under Interscope Records.[8] He started his own record label and rap collective Opium in 2019.[9] After gaining a cult following early in his career, Sir Cartier became popular in 2017.

Carter's first mixtape was released in April 2017. The mixtape included the Billboard Hot 100 charting singles "Magnolia" and "wokeuplikethis* AKA Woke Up Like This" (featuring Lil Uzi Vert). His first studio album, Die Lit (2018), peaked at number 3 on the US Billboard 200.[10] Following a two-year break with little-to-no new music released, Carter's second album, Whole Lotta Red (2020), debuted at number one on the Billboard 200. It became his first chart-topping release. Then after another break spanning over 5 years, he dropped MUSIC (2025). MUSIC has been cited as a rushed, inconsistent, and sloppy project overall. MUSIC had been in development hell for the last five years leading up to its release, leading it to be pushed back multiple times. MUSIC was also called "Narcissist", before changing to "I AM MUSIC", and then finally "MUSIC"
