Carti fans have been starved of a new album.

DJ Akademiks is someone who has had the inside scoop quite a bit throughout his career. Overall, he was the one who delivered to fans the official audio of Drake's "Push Ups" diss track. Furthermore, he had the exclusive on the latest Quavo diss song towards Chris Brown. Although not everyone is a fan of Akademiks, you have to give him credit for the way he has built his brand. At this stage in his career, he has proven to be someone that a few big artists have a great deal of respect for.

One artist who has built a rapport with Akademiks is none other than Playboi Carti. Carti is an incredibly hard artist to pin down, so it's impressive that Ak has been able to get anything from him. Months ago, Akademiks claimed that Carti's album would be dropping soon. Subsequently, Carti went on to drop six singles without putting any of them on streaming services. This led to some distrust as fans have no clue what is really going on.

DJ Akademiks Causes Some Excitement

In the tweet above, you can see a recent video of Carti in a car with some women who are getting rowdy in the front seat. This prompted Akademiks to tweet "Carti Album OTW. 2024 Music." Subsequently, fans reacted to this tweet with quite a bit of skepticism. After all, Carti never seems to actually give real updates on his projects. Perhaps a new song is coming tonight, although we won't know until later in the day. Hopefully, Carti ends up surprising us and throws fans a bit of a bone.
