Playboi Carti’s 2018 LP, Die Lit is a masterful embodiment of the trap genre in all its glory. Through the record’s 18 tracks, Carti delivers a one-of-a-kind performance with his otherworldly vocals that can sound both as faint as on the intoxicating “Long Time” or as excruciating as on the mosh anthem “R.I.P.”. Just as profound as Carti’s vocals are, what takes this project to unusual heights is its intricate soundscape that serves as the core to Playboi’s every move. While the writing on this project brings new meaning to the phrase braindead, the simple yet effective vocal and sonic showings are enough to make Die Lit a certified modern classic.
