Playboi Carti’s relationship with his fans has taken a troubling turn as a male fan accused the rapper of orchestrating an attack involving his entourage.
According to the fan, the incident occurred when he approached Carti with a meme-like picture for an autograph, which the artist reportedly did not appreciate.
"About ten minutes ago, Playboi Carti's crew jumped me and my girlfriend all because I wanted to ask him to sign my picture," the fan claimed, referencing the rapper's reaction to the photo.
The fan further alleged, "He took my picture and he told his gang, 'Go get his phone from him.' Me and my girl ran and they chased us down. And what I did is I gave him my girlfriend's phone because I have the video of him snatching it and getting angry."
The fan shared a video that allegedly shows Carti grabbing the picture before cutting to scenes of chaos, including a moment where individuals appear to pin the fan’s girlfriend down.
The clip has fueled intense debate among fans, with many criticizing the apparent involvement of the girlfriend in the altercation.
Some supporters argue the fan’s actions were provocative, while others believe the response was an extreme overreaction. "Allegedly going for his girlfriend took things too far," one fan remarked online.
This incident adds to a series of controversies surrounding the Atlanta artist. Carti’s career, marked by his shadowy persona and cryptic public presence, has been punctuated by rivalries and disputes.
Notably, he has ongoing conflicts with artists like Benji Blue Bills and Ola Runt, the latter of whom recently responded to a 2020 diss from Carti following his release from prison.
As questions around this latest controversy swirl, Playboi Carti has yet to address the allegations publicly. Fans remain divided, with some calling for clarity and accountability while others doubt the legitimacy of the claims.
