His collaborations have seen great success including "CARNIVAL” with Kanye West, Ty Dolla $ign and Rich the Kid, reaching No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. Carti’s collaboration with Travis Scott on their song “FE!N” peaked at No. 5 on Billboard’s Hot 100, and the duo performed the track together on Saturday Night Live. Carti was also featured on “Timeless” with The Weeknd, “I LUV IT” with Camila Cabello, “TYPE SHIT” with Future, Metro Boomin and Travis Scott and “Popular” with The Weeknd and Madonna.\n\n \n\nNow, with the release of his long-awaited 30-track fourth studio album, MUSIC, Carti has once again proven himself to be at the forefront of the industry. With features from Future, Lil Uzi Vert, Skepta, The Weeknd, Travis Scott, Ty Dolla $ign, Young Thug and more, the album quickly rose to the No. 1 spot on the Billboard 200 where it spent a total of three weeks and made its mark as his second No. 1 album. \n\n \n\nGarnering 799 million global streams worldwide and selling 298,000 units in its first week in the U.S., Carti joined Taylor Swift and Morgan Wallen to become the third artist, and the first rapper, to ever have 30 tracks debut on the Billboard Hot 100. On the heels of this immense success, Carti then released the deluxe version of the album, MUSIC - SORRY 4 DA WAIT, with four additional new tracks. Following the immense impact of MUSIC, Carti closed out Rolling Loud California with a stellar headlining set where he brought out The Weeknd and Skepta to perform tracks “RATHER LIE,” “Timeless” and “TOXIC”. With a constant string of hits and impressive performances, Playboi Carti does not miss.\n\n \n\nCarti also joined forces with The Weeknd to give fans a surprise performance of “Timeless” at the 2025 GRAMMY Awards and performed hit track “Like Weezy” live at the BET awards. Refusing to give up the momentum, he joined The Weeknd on his After Hours Til Dawn Tour, which he will continue on through September. The pair sold out four nights at SoFi Stadium, and have stops left in Atlanta, Houston and more.\n\n \n\nAbout Ken Carson\n\nKen Carson is a breakout Atlanta-born artist who just earned his first No. 1 on the Billboard 200 with More Chaos, his boldest and most successful project yet. Already named one of the best albums of 2025 by Complex and Genius, the record expands on the world he built with 2023’s Platinum-certified A Great Chaos, home to the Hot 100 hit “overseas” and a fixture on year-end best-of lists from The New York Times, Pitchfork, Billboard, Complex and Rolling Stone. Across his discography, Ken has amassed over four billion streams, sold over 230,000 tickets globally and recently earned four new gold RIAA certifications for “Succubus,” “SS,” “Jennifer’s Body” and “I Need You.” Recognized on Variety’s Young Hollywood Impact Report, he has also fronted campaigns for Y\/Project x Heaven by Marc Jacobs, delivered standout sets at Rolling Loud and ComplexCon, and earned co-signs from Young Thug, Jay-Z, Justin Bieber and Anthony Kiedis. A Great Chaos defined an era for Ken, but with More Chaos, he’s taking it even further, pushing boundaries, growing his cult following and solidifying himself as one of the most compelling voices of his generation.\n\n \n\nAbout Destroy Lonely\n\nIn an age where it feels like nothing’s shocking anymore, the word “rockstar” is contentious and punk can be seen as nothing more than an aesthetic to be consumed, Destroy Lonely is reevaluating and redefining all those things. Born Bobby Sandimanie III, Lonely has quickly risen to prominence with each release he’s shared. His debut album, If Looks Could Kill, made a major impact, hitting No. 1 on Apple Music and amassing nearly 10 million streams on Spotify, following the success of his breakout single “NOSTYLIST,” now certified Gold by the RIAA. His rapid rise earned him “Artist to Watch” honors from Complex, Billboard, BET, Rolling Stone and more. In 2024, he returned with LOVE LASTS FOREVER, blending Atlanta-rooted rap with a punk-infused sound. The project debuted at No. 1 on the Top R&B\/Hip-Hop Albums and Top Rap Albums charts and secured a Top 10 spot on the Billboard 200. Most recently, he shared his see u soon <\/3 project on SoundCloud, giving fans a glimpse of what’s next. But Lonely’s influence extends far beyond music. He has collaborated with designer Matthew Williams on an exclusive merch collection, appeared in Marc Jacobs campaigns, designed a custom pair of Bose headphones and worked alongside artists including Southside, Ken Carson, PinkPantheress, Quavo and A$AP Nast. His live performances have graced major stages including Lollapalooza, Coachella, Summer Smash and Rolling Loud, and he’s even walked in VETEMENTS’ show at Paris Fashion Week. Known for pairing bold styles, like wearing an Atlanta fitted cap with black-painted nails, Lonely constantly challenges expectations, both musically and visually. Through his music, he pushes boundaries and invites listeners into his evolving, post-apocalyptic universe, declaring, “It’s not a lifestyle, it’s life.” As he continues to grow as an artist, he remains committed to authenticity, using each project as a deeper exploration of his world.\n\n \n\nAbout Homixide Gang \n\nHomixide Gang is the explosive hip hop duo from the east side of Atlanta comprised of Homixide Meechie and Homixide Beno!, known for their high-energy performances, raw delivery and futuristic trap sound. Signed to Playboi Carti’s Opium imprint, the pair have quickly become standouts in Atlanta’s new wave, with over 60 million streams globally and a rapidly growing worldwide fanbase. Since breaking out with “SSN” in 2021, they’ve released a string of acclaimed projects, leading up to in their 2024 project I5U5WE5 under Opium\/Interscope Records. This year, they returned with their highly anticipated debut album, Homixide Lifestyle 2—a 25-track project that pushes rage rap forward, blending Southern hip-hop influences with a darker, more refined edge. The album debuted in the Top 10 on Spotify’s Global and U.S. Album Charts, with production from Pi’erre Bourne, WakeUp, F1LTHY, Maaly Raw, TLY Jacob, Section 8, ATL Jacob, DJ Moon and more. It also features collaborations with Opium labelmates Ken Carson and Destroy Lonely. With sold-out shows across China, a major North American tour, and performances at Rolling Loud and ComplexCon, Homixide Gang continues to define the future of rap on their own terms.\n\n \n\n###\n\n \n\nFOLLOW PLAYBOI CARTI ON SOCIALS\n\nINSTAGRAM instagram.com\/playboicarti\n\nTWITTER twitter.com\/playboicarti\n\nFACEBOOK facebook.com\/playboicarti\n\nYOUTUBE youtube.com\/channel\/UC652oRUvX1onwrrZ8ADJRPw\n","media_file_type":"img","media_file_placeholder":null,"media_file_name":"https:\/\/www.benchmarkintlarena.com\/assets\/img\/1600x600-26fd88c76f.jpg","media_link":"https:\/\/www.benchmarkintlarena.com\/events\/detail\/playboi-2026","ticket_link":"Buy Tickets<\/a>","event_date":"Nov<\/span> 30<\/span>, 2025<\/span>","promos":"primary featured","event_time":"7:00pm","media_thumb":"https:\/\/www.benchmarkintlarena.com\/assets\/img\/480x320-4dca851be9.jpg","category":{"name":"Concerts","id":"1"}},{"media_title":"NEW DATE: Stevie Nicks","media_tagline":"","event_body":"","media_file_type":"img","media_file_placeholder":null,"media_file_name":"https:\/\/www.benchmarkintlarena.com\/assets\/img\/1600X600-e11f7754bf.jpg","media_link":"https:\/\/www.benchmarkintlarena.com\/events\/detail\/stevie-nicks-dec-2025","ticket_link":"Buy Tickets<\/a>","event_date":"Dec<\/span> 7<\/span>, 2025<\/span>","promos":"primary secondary featured","event_time":"7:00pm","media_thumb":"https:\/\/www.benchmarkintlarena.com\/assets\/img\/480X320-5f22bbe317.jpg","category":{"name":"Concerts","id":"1"}},{"media_title":"Brandy & Monica","media_tagline":"with Kelly Rowland and more","event_body":"\n\nThe iconic GRAMMY Award-winning artists, Brandy and Monica, will embark on their first-ever co-headlining tour.
