With lines like "My whole career, they bitin'," Carti pushes back against critics while confidently staking his claim as an innovator. Personal moments sneak in too, with Carti reflecting on fatherhood, grounding his larger-than-life persona. The production is minimalist, allowing Carti’s voice to take center stage, capturing the raw energy that defines his music. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
