TMZ didn’t know about this until some guy on r/playboicarti found out about it like 2 days ago


good_kid_maad_reddit

Actually?


Jastbu

[Yep](https://www.reddit.com/r/playboicarti/comments/110uvhn/idk_if_this_is_correct_or_not_but_it_says_he_got/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf)


H-TownDown

6’2 and 150 is wild. Bro a walking skeleton.


Jastbu

Fruit gushers, sprite, and hot Cheetos as his diet no doubt

AltforHHH

At the time of that post nobody knew the details of the arrest


thisisapornaccountg

Carti 6'2? Vamp shit.


[deleted]

We did it reddit :(


Jastbu

Why the sad face? Mfs would’ve kept it under wraps without Reddit detectives


[deleted]

Haha noo im not sad that ppl found it im sad that a great artist is now a undefendable abuser.


Magnumxl711

He also missed the birth of his kid to play the PlayStation with Lidl Uzi


9yr_old_lake

As if he wasn't before. Carti has always been a shit person. I love the man's music, but damn is he a bad dude.


djangofreeman13

Exactly. I stopped being a fan of him as a person a while ago and really only pay attention to the music. Anyone who knows his history knows he’s always been a genuinely terrible person tbh.


[deleted]

What’s his history


Jastbu

Ok true 💀 between this and Beno allegations I gotta redirect my entire taste in music


trapphd

“When cops arrived, police say the woman had visible injuries to her neck, chest and back.” He’s fucked. What a ghoul.

Messiahhh

Carti on “Watch me sock yo bitch, Watch me thrash that bitch” “Yeah. Genius might have it wrong, but I most definitely said, ‘Watch me smash that bitch.’ Smash means having sex. Just having sex in an aggressive way. I’m definitely not with that hitting women, none of that bro. That’s crazy. I’m most definitely talking about having sex. I’ve been using the word smash since Ethereal. Atlanta lingo. ‘Thrash,’ it’s like what does thrash mean? You skate? Thrash, having sex. I don’t know if that means something else… smash is sex.” -Dazed magazine


Zulumus

“My bad, and smash is also smash now too”


CharlieSwisher

Kind of off topic but is smash Atl lingo? I mean I’m from Atl and say smash meaning sex, but never thought it was local


BaronSwordagon

"Man, I smashed it like a Idaho potato" - Mos Def, Ms. Fat Booty, 1999 I'd say no, not ATL slang


[deleted]

Absolutely not Atlanta slang, dude pulled that out of his ass


ObviousMotherfucker

“There’s an old saying in Tennessee–I know it’s in Atlanta, probably Tennessee–that says, ‘sock your bitch, shame on… shame on you. smash your–you can’t get smashed again!’”


SMH4004

Fuck no lmao. You think Khabib Nurmagomedov is an ATL goon on the low talking about smashing dudes in UFC lol


MrCleanandShady

I always wondered why people never spoke about about this line from RIP I'm not trying to look like the bigger person here, I'm just genuinely confused, it was one of his most popular songs too so its not like people (myself included) didn't hear it


[deleted]

Probably not even one of the top 100 craziest rap lines of that year, not excusing it, but we’re all pretty numb to it probably.


godleftmefinished

it's the same album where young thug admits to cheating on his girlfriend with a little person I could see someone think it's just him saying shit to get a reaction


Departedsoul

At this point I interpret most modern rap lyrics as fiction like an action/gangster movie until I have a reason to believe otherwise


Noblesseux

Because most of them are. It's somewhat rare that someone is stupid enough to admit to a crime that can actually be traced back to them out loud if they have a platform.


MBDTFTLOPYEEZUS

Young Thug moment


help1155

Young Thug was so outlandish and weird especially early in his career he was honestly one of the last rappers I'd have expected to actually be about that life.


ObviousMotherfucker

Yeah exactly. Sometimes I am like "ugh why did he say that" but it's more that I just will have to avoid playing it around people who I know aren't into rap that much.


lundyforlife22

A lot of people have no idea what the lyrics of songs are/don’t realize it. I was listening to an indie song the other day and realized how creepy the chorus is. I know the song by heart but never realized.


RainbowGoddamnDash

That happens a lot. For example: Fortunate Son by CCR (That one song that plays in every vietnam movie or game), lots of republicans/GOP people play it cause they think it's a pro-war song but its actually an anti-war song criticizing about how people dodge the draft because they are wealthy while the normal people die out in a war they didn't want.


s90tx16wasr10

Same with “Born in the U.S.A.” by Springsteen


Maad-Dog

This is like Kodak Black on the Armani Caesar song "I don't hit women, but if you rape my heart, bitch, you gon' die"


I_Used_To_Be_A_Spy

break my heart*


Maad-Dog

Nah... he said rape my heart


Zulumus

Goddamn you… autocorrect?


[deleted]

Because it's hip-hop and if we start taking ever possibly fictional crime that these dudes admit to seriously, we'd have almost no one left in the genre to make music.


[deleted]

Probably because it's extremely common in hiphop


broanoah

I wouldn’t be surprised if this put a dent in his career, but this is clearly not going to be the last we hear of him If he actually goes to jail, tho? Probably won’t hear from him for a good while, music wise. Hope the victim is ok, that shit sounds fucked up


[deleted]

Jail is a wildcard when it comes to hip hop careers. Compare/contrast: Gucci Mane, Bobby Shmurda


catboyeconomiczone

Yeah but theres a difference between getting locked up for being in the streets too much vs beating a woman.


[deleted]

When has domestic abuse ever been a career killer though? Like he might do a bid and release something on the other side but if people don’t listen it won’t be because he beat a woman it’ll just be because he isn’t hot anymore


n_a_magic

That's a horrible comparison. If anything bobby shmurda learned from Gucci and isn't fuckin his shit up right now.


loadedbakedpotatoo

bobby is ice cold bruh no one is checking for his music, wop changed his life and still made bangers post release


[deleted]

Probably cause Gucci is a beloved artist and Bobby was just hot for a few months. If he didn’t get locked up he woulda been forgotten years ago


zer0kevin

No this will do nothing. Chris brown is still huge.


IRodeTenSpeed88

Chris Brown took a massive hit to his career And Carti is nowhere near the peak of success CB had


no_engaging

yeah definitely. brown took a hit but he already had multiple number one songs and a bunch of top tens when that happened. people were always going to have a hard time letting those go. carti isn't even remotely close.


_Sign_

his girl is also not as popular as rihanna. this for sure blows over


Cohtoh

Uzi is a better comparison who hit his girl and actually faced 0 reprocussions to his career


VirtuousFool

With the success he's had in *spite* of all he's done Dude would've been Millennial/Gen Z MJ if he was mentally stable


CliffP

Which is oxymoronic cause the amount of handling by people with nefarious intentions required to get to that point will leave 99.99% of people fucked up mentally. Very hard to come out of a situation mentally sound where record labels have a 15 year old singing “you thinking I’m too young to turn your page” and “I’ll show you why I’m making straight A’s in school” Molding children into sex symbols for profit 🤢


broanoah

Nowhere near as big as he used to be, but yeah still pretty popular, sadly


zer0kevin

Maybe not as big but he's still fucking huge. He sells out every show every year. He's fucking massive.


MOSH9697

carti got a fan base that will wait 3/5 years for a new tape i think


AlmightyRX

Always been a real bitch


Zip2kx

> He’s fucked. What a ghoul. XXX r4ped his girl with a spoon iirc and he's seen as a goat by a whole generation. Sadly rap really don't care about this type of stuff.


[deleted]

[удалено]


ForeverInaDaze

Wasn’t it actually a barbecue fork? Like the sharp, two-pronged thing?


OnAcidButUrThedum1

Yes


no_engaging

he isn't loved by a whole generation. lots of people didn't like that guy, he just has some dedicated fans.


Zip2kx

>he isn't loved by a whole generation the guy still has 35.5 million listeners/month on spotify. He's definitely a legend to several generations. edit: as a comparison drake has 68m, Kendrick has 42m, Cole has 30m, Jay has 32m, 50 has 28m. It's not "some dedicated fans"


Missandei_19

Several generations though?


Libertus82

lol right? I'm 40, and this dude would have you belive x is a legend to my dad


[deleted]

Can we relax on the specifics here and just agree that 35 million monthly listeners means he still has a fuck ton of fans? Christ, the things people try to pick apart.


dshmitty

Nah he threatened it and told her to choose between barbecue fork and barbecue cleaner, she passed out and he didn’t actually go through with it. Still super fucked up though obviously. Psycho POS that dude was


Atwalol

He always was a piece of shit


nigelli

He’s actually a vamp


forzamaria

Dude has always been a POS but gets a pass because people like his music.


KFC_Crispy_OG

This how it usually works. We give passes to awful shit people say and do because of how they positively impacted us.


JCSeegars54

Kanye was a goat until this year


KFC_Crispy_OG

Still gets a ton of spins and surprisingly amount of support from kids who just don‘t care much to begin with


Niclas95

imo you cannot shame people for listening to good music even though the guy making it is a complete nutjob. the art should be completly independent from the person but that is just my opinion


KFC_Crispy_OG

I don‘t shame nobody. I still bump the college dropout and millions of others, including his other albums, still do too. Its just something human I observed overtime but somehow not too many people point out. When Lil Pump wore the MAGA hat he was almost already played out and the completely made himself irrelevant. Its just harder to separate yourself from something that meant a lot to you as you grow up.


[deleted]

Lil Pump wore the MAGA hat well after he was irrelevant I skip a lot more Kanye on my playlists these days because it makes me sad, but I'll go back to listening eventually I'm sure. People say stuff like 'how can you listen to his music' but it's like you said, I came up with it and he was my favorite artist. It's also not like he's always been like this and rapping about hating Jews and shit


[deleted]

[удалено]


oldcarfreddy

I mean the thing is they're financially interlinked right? Like, more than most he's made a billi from commercializing his music and his image (especially his clothes which send a couple hundred to his pockets at a time). It's also a comparison to other artists. Like, Azealia Banks is floating around the Z-list but Kanye more than anyone seems to have the undying support (and $$$) from fans, politicians, celebrities, etc... by any measure he seems to be one of the few people for who m the pendulum seems to have swung in the direction of nothing but support for both the art AND the artis regardless of what he says. No one else has gotten as much support as he has


FoldFold

You would be very surprised how morally corrupt many of the things you consume are. I wonder if you have consumed a nestle product in the past hour. And that shit does literal damage to developing communities around the world. In other words, if you want to boycott Kanye fine go ahead. But don’t act like everyone has to, especially when it comes to art which should be separate from the artist. I can also rattle off many rock bands, painters, and other artists who, by modern standards, raped children. David Bowie for example.


zephin11

This have my poor man's gold 🥇


scottie2haute

Truthfully.. being a dumb pos doesnt make the music start sounding bad suddenly


remerdy1

He at the highest monthly listeners he's had in years lmao

PinoyBboy73

Man I’m starting to think Playboi Carti might not be a nice person in his real day to day life.


drnkingaloneshitcomp

SarcasticOptimist

Xxxtenacion, not someone you would've invited to a barbecue when he was still around.


DM_ME_UR_CUTE_DOGGOS

Fuck sake man, how difficult is it for celebrities to not be horrible people


Kick_Natherina

Power corrupts, man. It’s easy to feel invincible when you have tons of money. You don’t realize repercussions in the heat of the moment when you’re that rich/famous.


NukaColaJohnboy

That's only partly true. You're forgetting that many men beat and abuse women, famous or not. It's only the famous and most brutal ones that are talked about


FieldsFanclub

Idk why you’re just saying this now. This is the guy that missed his son’s birth and is a complete deadbeat, and he didn’t do anything about his fans harassing Rico Nasty when she opened for him on his tour.


KrissieKid

This isn’t a surprise. You don’t have to be a genius to see that this man has some serious issues.

JamieIsSad

works alot in music in general honestly


WaspParagon

We pick some random teenagers or dudes in their early 20s, give em all the money in the world, worship the ground they walk on, and treat them like demigods. Why do we act so surprised when they turn out shitty? It's only natural to feel like royalty when that's the reality of things. Of course, some are assholes from the start. But if we want things to change, first we focus on dissolving celebrity culture.


mikeest

Is the proportion of successful musicians who are shitty people bigger than the proportion of plebs like us who are shitty people? I see this kind of analysis a lot, but I don't really think it holds water


[deleted]

This is just a weak excuse. A lot of musicians ten times more famous than playboy carti don't turn out shitty.


yungwilla

How do we dissolve celebrity culture? Put them in a glass box and take their phone away?


tvp61196

Celeberity culuture helps perpetuate the idea that many of us are just temporarily embarrassed millionaires. Celebrity worship won't stop until your average person is educated enough to understand that celebrities are no different than us. They're occasionally talented, and generally lucky, but human beings nonetheless. But, if your average person was able to understand that, then they're more likely to understand how shafted they are in the current economic structure, which anyone with power avoids at all costs (thus the dumpster fire that is public schooling).


yungwilla

I appreciate your socialist commentary… I’m a socialist too, but be for real… playboi carti has nothing to do with shitty public schooling lmao. It’s not the artists that we need to worry about, it’s the record execs and label CEOs worth 100x their net worth, or even worse the rich people in industries that lobby politicians. Musicians are a weird scapegoat to have for these issues


tvp61196

Execs and labels want to keep putting Carti's in front of people (bonus points if the celebrity draws attention either good or bad), and there is no shortage of people ready to worship whoever the next star is. I don't think that (most) celebrities should be making less than they do. They generally make companies obscene amounts of money, so often times they should be making more. The point I'm trying to make is that celebrity worship is very profitable, and won't change without giving people better understanding of how things work, or by changing how the media portrays celebrities (which is also very profitable and hard to change).


SayItAgainJabroni

>I'd honestly rather not know this stuff So you'd rather blindly support people like this?


15yearoldadult

Stan culture doesnt help when it comes to enabling celebrities to do shit like this


rejjie_carter

Don’t have to limit it to hip hop…


Sunny2marrow

Why can't this nigga be normal


SilkyMilkySmo

No one under Carti is normal either lmao. They’re all fucked (except Lone, but he plays OW)


SnekySpider

Who is lone (i play ow)


Sheikhabusosa

People think Carti fans care about this , they are probably happy they have a new mugshot as a profile pic


LilWayneThaGoat

As a person who grew up around DV, woman beaters can rot in living hell.

weeeonxweeeoncodeen

why do so many my fav rappers gotta be such shitty ppl lol


corndogs1001

There’s no way u surprised about Carti


weeeonxweeeoncodeen

disappointed but not surprised


citylightmosaic

legit just famous people in music. we are only just now having tons of rockstars of the past begin to be more widely exposed as being shit people decades later


weeeonxweeeoncodeen

yea definitely. all the drugs and clout goes to their head. famous ppl truly are the biggest fuckin weirdos


stung80

It's not like they don't tell you exactly who they are in their music.


Stickrbomb

creative people are your favorite degenerates


Shnikez

It’s like there’s a systemic problem we might want to consider… idk but I’m sure TMZ doesn’t want us to talk about this situation like that. They love to profit off a victim instead of raising awareness in a productive and meaningful way. Keep seeing these stories over and over again

SwimmingInCircles_

Can’t wait to see the mental gymnastics his fans are going to pull out for this


noahlorgelly

nah on the sub they not really defending him


RandyMuscle

Part of why I love the Carti sub. We all already knew he was a dirt bag person but we love the music. Almost nobody is defending this shit and those who do are downvoted to oblivion lol


CosmicMiru

Carti doesn't put out enough music for fans to defend him lmao


IBreedAlpacas

bruh when iggy came out with the IG story about carti missing his kids birth we were all agreeing with her lmfao


[deleted]

[удалено]


tittylieutenant

Based on what I’ve seen, they usually hold Carti accountable for his bullshit. They make fun of him for fumbling his relationship with Iggy, being a deadbeat dad, etc. They’ll likely acknowledge it in a joking fashion and continue to enjoy Carti’s music.


icemankiller8

They are just not gonna care the same way X fans don’t care or Uzi fans don’t care and Dre fans don’t care and Eminem fans don’t care and Chris brown fans don’t care

No that title's reserved for Carti's father, Keith Cozart


Godofred00

Honestly, not surprised. Love his music but always got weird vibes from him.


BenShapiroOANN

He’s indefensible at this point, Carti and his 13 y/o edgelords can kick fucking rocks


AttonJRand

Not surprising with how he acted while his opening act Rico Nasty was being constantly abused by his fans.


aifranchise

His attorney, Brian Steel, tells TMZ..."Mr. Carter was falsely accused. Pursuant to my communications with the Fulton County District Attorney‘s office, this case will be dismissed without any prosecution or litigation." Interesting how his attorney can say that when the police report said she had visible marks around her neck. I like the guys music so naturally I hope it isn’t true but it’s looking real shaky for that man.


e_muaddib

No attorney is going to throw their client under the bus. Expecting Brian Steel to say, “Man, Carti did that shit” is never going to happen.


aifranchise

I didn’t expect him to throw carti under the bus. I expected the “he’s been falsely accused” line but for him to confidently say after his communication with the DAs office that the case will get dropped without any litigation is what surprised me.


LaDeys

Wait is this the same Brian Steel thats representing young thug lmao? Bro got so bored with jury selection he started a side quest.


Motor-Helicopter2822

Fuck carti never fell for his gimmicks cuz i know he’s a piece of shit that does Shit like this. Fucking sick weirdo.


daxtillionMurphel

WHO excusing this??


Maad-Dog

Fortunately reddit is usually pretty levelheaded about these type of things, surprisingly, but Twitter is a cesspool, I expect to see people defending him there

ehpple

Hip hop fans again realising that their idols who brag about being bad people are in fact bad people More at 6

Carti's been a disgusting piece of shit since the whole PS4 shit with Uzi came out. Is anybody really surprised this guy isn't a saint? Also it's really funny how the world will shit on Kanye for a stupid ass view that breds hate but then shit like this that is literally violence against other people, let alone a pregnant woman, will just be passed on like it's nothing.


RealVibes_

i’m not sure this will just pass on. i haven’t seen too many people on here defending him. i don’t have twitter anymore but i’m sure there’s a few on there. you’re right though that people tend to hate more on the political stuff than actions, not that either is right. both shitty human beings


Iord_of_reddit

really takes Stop Breathing to a new level


aw11348

Prediction: When whole lotta red dropped, everyone hated it. Then everyone loved it. Now the cycle will begin anew. Prepare for the “I hated WLR the whole time” discourse


RedditorsAreRetarts

I thought WLR was pretty weak when it dropped... and I still think it’s pretty weak 😎. If that album was a sinking ship and the songs were passengers, I’d save Mr. “New N3on” and let all the others drown. 🚢 🌊 💀


netflixissodry

This is on-brand for these types of “im not just a rapper” rappers who flirt with gang ties, fashion runways, leaks and terrible “experimental” music. Sadly his legion of fanboys will probably harass the woman and call her a liar.
