Offset Confirms Playboi Carti Didn't Clear Feature For His Album
Offset has seemingly confirmed that Playboi Carti didn’t clear his verse for their anticipated collaboration for Set It Off.
The Atlanta rapper unveiled his star-studded tracklist for Set It Off on Wednesday (October 4) but fans were disappointed to not see Playboi Carti’s name anywhere, especially after Offset previewed the bouncy violin-laden track for fans last week at a listening party.

“Where Carti n-gga,” an angry fan commented. While another Vamp replied speculating, “He definitely ain’t clear it.”
Offset liked the second comment to pretty much confirm that there was a clearance issue with Carti’s team.

The Carti and Set collab was tentatively titled “Rock Out” on social media and the beat features the same piano chords heard in a 2020 demo version of Kanye West and Carti’s unreleased track “Made It” — which was originally intended to appear on Donda. It’s still unclear why the song did not make the cut in either case.
While Carti disappointingly won’t appear on the album, there’s plenty of star power ready to bring the noise.

Offset has called on his wife Cardi B, Future, Travis Scott, Don Toliver, Mango Foo, Latto, Yung Nudy and Chlöe Bailey to join him on Set It Off, which is slated to arrive next Friday (October 13).
Cardi B’s appearance isn’t just on the previously released “Jealousy” either, as she’s slated for another collab with her hubby on “Freaky.”

Set It Off, which will be Offset’s sophomore solo album, comes on the heels of 2019’s Father of 4. The debut studio LP includes the Grammy-nominated single “Clout,” which also featured Cardi.
Always a staunch supporter of her husband, Cardi B recently called the album “Grammy-worthy” after Offset unveiled the project’s cover and release date.
The “Bongos” rapper got on Instagram to share in the excitement, promoting the album in her Stories.
“FINALLY… This album is so good… I believe [it’s] Grammy worthy,” declared Cardi. “So much time, passion, love, sweat, and tears put into it. From the music to the visual.”
