Playboi Carti Brings Out Kendrick Lamar & A$AP Rocky at Los Angeles Antagonist 2.0 Tour Stop
Playboi Carti turned the Los Angeles stop of the Antagonist 2.0 Tour into a star-studded affair with A$AP Rocky and Kendrick Lamar joining King Vamp on stage.
Carti and Opium crew took over Crypto.com Arena on Tuesday night (Oct. 14). Rocky, who signed Carti to AWGE, invaded the stage to turn the party up while the Atlanta native performed “Long Time” from his 2018 Die Lit album.
Kendrick brought Playboi Carti out during the Atlanta stop of his Grand National Tour in April, and Carti returned the favor on Tuesday, surprising fans with a Lamar guest appearance during “GOOD CREDIT,” which sent the crowd into a frenzy.
“You know what this is/ The vamps and the boogies/ We jugg through the party,” Lamar raps in front of a sea of moshing fans and iPhone flashlights.
The Cardo-produced Music standout reached No. 17 on the Billboard Hot 100 and cracked the top 10 of the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart.
Kendrick doesn’t pop out much, so it typically has to be a special occasion to catch him outside. He’s currently on a break from the Grand National Tour, which will head to Australia in December.
As for Carti, the Antagonist 2.0 Tour with Ken Carson and Destroy Lonely kicked off earlier this month, and is slated to hit Phoenix, Las Vegas, Denver, St. Paul, Brooklyn, Chicago, Detroit, Philly, Nashville and wrap up with a hometown performance in Atlanta in December.
On the music side, Playboi Carti has continued to tease his Baby Boi album, which remains without a release date. Back in April, DJ Swamp Izzo confirmed the project was “done.”
