Somebody posted his ID on Twitter, looks legitimate. RobinDabanque (talk) 04:24, 13 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Playboi Carti confirmed his birthday to be September 13, 1995 and not 1996.

I'm requesting for an edit to be made so Playboi Carti's birth of date just has 1995 and not both '95 and '96. During the arrest of Playboi Carti back in September of 2022, he is asked his date of birth while being in the back of a cop car. He stated that his birthday is September 13th of 1995. There is video footage of him saying this. I will link it at the bottom of this.

thank for this, i inputted it into the article HappyBoi3892 (talk) 00:53, 12 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I reverted. Going by the policy of WP:DOB, there are multiple conflicting sources, including articles with the article subject stating they are an age that at the time conflict with a 1995 or 1996 birth year. If the article subject themselves is stating conflicting ages, we can't choose one over the other.

This has been discussed several times on the talk page with editors wanting to use the body cam footage for inclusion (it comes up almost monthly), but it has been considered a primary source in those discussions.

If anyone reading disagrees that there are conflicting sources, feel free to address on the BLP noticebosrd.

Playboi Carti's Single "ALL RED" Debuts at No. 1 on Spotify USA with 3.4 Million Plays

On September 13, 2024,Playboi Carti achieved a significant milestone in his career with the release of his highly anticipated single "ALL RED." The track debuted at No. 1 on Spotify USA, racking up an impressive 3.4 million plays within its first 24 hours. This marked Carti's biggest streaming debut to date, reinforcing his status as one of the most influential figures in contemporary hip-hop. "ALL RED" is a continuation of the distinctive sound that Carti has become known for—melding infectious trap beats, minimalist production, and his signature ad-libs. The single has been described as a return to his raw, experimental roots, reminiscent of his groundbreaking Whole Lotta Red album released in 2020. Fans and critics alike have praised the song for its high energy and avant-garde approach, which blends aggressive flows with hypnotic, layered instrumentals.

I would like to make an edit Playboi Carti‘s age because Playboi Carti was born in September 13, 1996, not 1995, even though he said he was born in 1995 in the recording of him getting arrested all the facts lead up to him being more in 1996 because he graduated high school in 2014. He has his first child in 2020 claimed he was 24 at the time he said he had his second child. He was 27 and 2023 and ID proof from his sister that he was born in 1996 therefore, he wasn’t born 1995 — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:19B:100:2500:60F3:6A6:3719:28F9 (talk) 01:08, 16 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
