Playboi Carti, the founder of Opium, is no stranger to stirring up intrigue with his lyrical content. His latest track, “H00DBYAIR,” is no exception. The song’s outro gives a brief yet poignant glimpse into his personal life, revealing that he has recently welcomed a second child into the world. Let’s delve into the details of this exciting new development.
Decoding the Lyrics
Longtime fans were quick to decipher the clues in “H00DBYAIR”. It seems that the song acts as Carti’s public announcement of his newborn daughter. He refers to her as Yves in the song, a name initially misinterpreted by some fans as “Eve”.
A Father of Two
Before Yves, there was Onyx. Playboi Carti’s son, Onyx, is from his previous relationship with Australian rapper, Iggy Azalea. The new track gives a nod to Onyx, demonstrating Carti’s tender side as a father. The rapper takes listeners on a journey through his experiences of fatherhood, sharing the age he was when each of his children were born.
Clearing Up Confusion
Playboi Carti took to Instagram Stories to clear up the confusion surrounding his daughter’s name. He corrected the spelling from “Eve” to Yves, using a familiar font he’s been employing throughout his recent songs. This clarification added an extra dimension to the rapper’s persona, showing his attention to detail and care for his fans’ understanding.
Legal Matters
In the backdrop of this happy news, there seems to be a cloud of legal issues. TMZ reported earlier this year about an arrest in Georgia, with Carti initially accused of assaulting a woman described as “his pregnant girlfriend.” The alleged assault was reported to have occurred in December of the previous year. However, Carti’s lawyer, Brian Steel, refuted the allegations, stating that Carti had been “falsely accused”.
“Mr. Carter was falsely accused,” Steel had said. “Pursuant to my communications with the Fulton County District Attorney‘s Office, this case will be dismissed without any prosecution or litigation.”
Anticipating New Music
Fans of Playboi Carti are eagerly waiting for his new album, speculated to be titled “Music”. This album is expected to drop next month, marking a significant milestone as it comes just over three years after his critically acclaimed “Whole Lotta Red”.
Wrapping Up
Playboi Carti’s latest track “H00DBYAIR” has not only given fans a catchy new tune to vibe to but also a glimpse into his personal life. As he navigates his journey of fatherhood, his music continues to evolve alongside him, an echo of his experiences and emotions. One thing is certain – Playboi Carti isn’t just a rapper; he’s a storyteller, sharing his narrative with the world one song at a time.
As we anticipate his new album, we can only expect more layers of his life to be unraveled, more stories to be told, and more music that resonates with the experiences of his fans. Until then, we celebrate the birth of Yves and the new chapter in Playboi Carti’s life.
