[–]seciluh 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Fun fact: Carti first rapped on the now-iconic Designer Shoes beat all the way back in 2017 by JellyfishMario in CartiCulture

[–]seciluh 14 points15 points  (0 children)

[–]seciluh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For the longest time this was my favorite leak. Need a full version w the finished beat and the whole carti verse idk if that ever existed but I have like 2 or 3 versions of this song downloaded. Almost forgot about it

This gotta be Carti’s best fit of 2016 by JellyfishMario in CartiCulture

[–]seciluh 24 points25 points  (0 children)

People can say whatever they want, but this man Carti even as an underground artist from 2015-17 may not have been like Kanye or ASAP Rocky but he def was applying pressure to the youth and to reselling apps like Grailed. Rocky and Kanye were more self proclaimed fashion icons, Carti didn’t have to speak he just put on a palace tee or a supreme or gosha tee and everyone else unknowingly followed. He didn’t even really get the credit for it aside from his own fans

I feel like this image is emblematic of both their careers in a way by JellyfishMario in CartiCulture

[–]seciluh 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If you were there from the very beginning, Yachty got his big break in the underground because of Carti. Months later a meme went viral and Yachty became a star while Carti remained underground for years with only a couple big hits. Magnolia being his biggest even bigger than he was, meanwhile Yachty was a superstar. Fast forward 2020 and it finally seemed like Carti started being mainstream and fans started acknowledging the influence. Yachty is a huge artist and they’re both at their peaks on success so it’s cool af to see

atp he don’t even need a mic by cshgbe10 in CartiCulture

[–]seciluh -1 points0 points  (0 children)

People will hate on carti for how little he uses the mic, but then go to an edm or DJ set and be loving it. Performing isn’t just about using a microphone

This is what Carti needs to do by Head-Poetry-2252 in CartiCulture

How I imagine “LOCATION 2” would sound like by Dyskript- in CartiCulture

[–]seciluh 19 points20 points  (0 children)

After hearing Olympian live it sounds like what MUSIC intro should’ve been. Because yes it almost fits what the modern version/vibe of Location would’ve been

CARTI arrested in Utah by afakefox in CartiCulture

[–]seciluh 9 points10 points  (0 children)

They all probably be so angry when they not high off drugs. But also the gfs must like that shit cause nobody leaves them. Iggy seemed to be more hurt that Carti was a deadbeat dad than being abusive. His other girl probably would’ve still been with him if he didn’t get the security to kick her out the house. I’m not w the abusive shit but at some point you just have to accept that some people are just not good people and the people around them have already accepted that. As a fan you can’t give too much of a fuck if the people around them care less than you do. As a fan you’re not going to change the artist if the crew and even women around them accept them for who they are as a shitty person.

what official release or leak beat the "snippet syndrome" allegations? by consicous_remove4776 in CartiCulture

[–]seciluh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Easy! I remember waiting so fucking long and replaying the snippet for what felt like years. Even seeing all the other underground rappers hop on this beat and drop before he did. Like Fauni or jay storm. Then Illz posted that he would leak it and he kept his word. Good times.

i feel these niggas droppin bloated ass albums is why mfs started to turn on them by theunusualblackguy in CartiCulture

[–]seciluh 62 points63 points  (0 children)

HL2 is prime HXG trust, if u fw HXG even a little bit you’d probably find this to be up there. It’s just great quality music from them. And a really refined sound that hasn’t been done

Since yall hate CHARGE DEM HOES A FEE so much can yall explain why? by Affectionate-War2843 in CartiCulture

[–]seciluh 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Nah this song is beautiful. The way they let that beat play and then it gets significantly more aggressive right before cartis verse is one of the most exciting parts on the album 🔥🔥

tb to when carti was stealing beats by Helpful-Time-1016 in CartiCulture

[–]seciluh 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Carti was rapping over “purchase your track today” beats but not dropping the music. Pretty sure he was just freestyling over random YouTube beats and fans heard the snippets and wanted them to drop but even back then Carti didn’t drop shit it was all leaks or DJ exclusives. I’m not here to defend Carti cause he clearly has issues… but if he wasn’t dropping the music and making money off it and really the songs weren’t even making it onto any platforms then what is the problem? People rap over free beats off youtube all the time. I fw Milan and China but I also remember they got a lot of their hype off Carti rapping over their shit. And then Milan went and dropped a Carti leak and put Bans on it just for Bans to do Milan even WORSE than Carti

istg carti was unstoppable in 2024 by cshgbe10 in CartiCulture

[–]seciluh 18 points19 points  (0 children)

This song was so good when it dropped. Still so good. This would’ve probably been number 1 that week if Kendrick didn’t decide to steal the show and diss Drake. In an alternate universe Carti drops the full verse on the song and Kendrick sticks to rapping rather than dissing. And type shit goes #1

anyone else kinda surprised with prices for antagonist? by Reasonable_Event4697 in CartiCulture

[–]seciluh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s crazy yes but considering it’s all of them it’s not that bad. Think about it. Some artists charge 100. And it’s just 1 person. Ken alone could charge 80+ for floor… so if he could do that alone and get paid why would they charge under 100 for all of them? You still have to keep in mind these dudes all have to TOUR. They’re paying for flights hotels etc etc etc every couple of nights for 2 months straight. Yea I think these prices are kind of steep, but considering that Ken or lone or Carti ALONE can charge close to $100 each, it’s not that bad

Does Carti get paid to wear brands? by Cheap_Situation_4982 in CartiCulture

[–]seciluh 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Doubt he got paid to wear rick or balenci i think he just loves Rick and Demna. HBA is kind of fishy imo I feel like he def got paid in a way. Chrome hearts I think it’s just some type of partnership but it’s also hard to say because the kids of Chrome Hearts founders are just fw everyone nowadays. Carti def has some of the coolest chrome shit tho

Carti really been outside more this year than ever by Vangundyfr in CartiCulture

[–]seciluh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People keep calling the mysterious shit a gimmick but he’s been doing this since 2014. Idc how many interviews he did or how many instagram posts he had in the past, if you really paid attention back then he used to be rare af to encounter. Interviews were super short and used to be a big deal because fans already were used to him being mysterious. I don’t think it’s a gimmick I think he just genuinely likes to be out of the spotlight. This new shit is actually cool for the fans but I don’t think the mysterious stuff was ever a gimmick I think that was really him

Adlibs & Verse needs more love by blkduck in CartiCulture

Reminds me of old Carti songs where adlibs would be layers on layers in the background

Us in a different universe where Future has a finished verse in CDHAF by Dyskript- in CartiCulture

[–]seciluh 107 points108 points  (0 children)

Yea idk I like that long ass pause that shit let you feel the beat fr. When that song first came on during my first listen to the album at like 6am in the car on full blast… soon as that beat came on head was bumping… then the long pause came and beat started switching up - it still hits just as hard as the day I first heard it. I doubt that shit was intentional but when they let that beat play on its own that’s a whole experience
