Snippet leaked on August 13, 2024. Was supposed to be groupbought, instead of "HOMIXIDE55555"; the server owners ran the buy believing this was the song to be acquired. It was ultimately an elaborate scam that the middleman (tune) perpetrated with the seller so that they could sell a less desirable song for a higher profit. Samples "It's Ok, You're Ok" by Bonjr, which itself samples "Seven Forty Seven" by Boards Of Canada. The surfaced file is cut, missing a very small portion of the outro. The audio quailty is also degraded as the result of being ripped from a video. The rumor about the cut part of the song being a missing beat switch is false; only about 3 seconds in total were cut and the actual rumor itself about the song having a beat swtich was spread by Soul (not the owners), who is known to spread misinformation. The seller also lied about the song having Clams Casino production. The real producer is Roark Bailey. Leaked on Aug 4, 2025. Good edit of the song that fixes the cut can be found in Remasters Tab

Snippet shared by the same crypto scammer as the one who shared a CDQ snip of "PROBLEM CHILD". Most likely finished. Recorded in 2023. Uses the same beat as "King Tonka" by Yeat. Confirmed by an insider to be called "HEARD Y'ALL GETTING MONEY". Was heavily promoted by King Bob through many posts on Twitter similarly to Different Day around new year's of 2024. Leaked in full on June 15, 2024 with the Yeat song stitched together. We have all the vocals but the open is unleaked so technically it's a partial leak. The file is ~128kbps.
Previewed in a Snapchat Story. Song was released by Lil L under the name Carti & Luxxk (feat. Carti) on Feb 16, 2022, song wasnt found by fans untill Mar 16, 2022.
Snippet surfaced on Sep 13, 2025 by Raahim. It's claimed to be from early 2023, and was supposed to be featured on the released version of the album (or an early version of MUSIC [V3]).
Throwaway, stated by F1LTHY to have been made "right before the show", referring to Carti's Rolling Loud Cali 2023 performance on March 3, 2023. A clearer version of Rockstar (without the guitar) was played in Carti's Antagonist Tour Show on October 10, 2025. 2 CDQ snippets leaked on Oct 11, 2025, people thought they were AI at first, but it turned out they are most likely real. According to Purple Matter, it was supposed to drop February 23, 2024 [1], but (according to his assumption) was delayed due to Vultures 1 [2]. Name confirmed to be ROCKSTARZ by a leaked official set list picture [3].
Found in a Uzi x Bari documentary that released on May 3rd, 2024. Snippet was played through a phone call in a moving car while it was raining, so the quality of the recording is extremely low. Snippet was around the time where Carti and Rolling Loud signed an agreement to drop music in February. Samples "Untouched" by The Veronicas.
King Bob stated that was his favourite song from Music [V1] (bob considers Music V1 songs made from October 2022 - October 2023) while relistening to it [1] . He also mentioned some lyrics from it: "HOLLUP I GOT A LOT THO, I GOT A THOT HOE, SHE LIKE TO POP COKE, I FEEL LIKE PAC HOE, CHECK OUT THE TAHOE, IM SWERVIN POTHOLES" [2] ; "she worried bout me she worried bout the wrong thing" [3]
OG Filename: pbc 3-15-23 4 KP IZZO Previewed by Carti on his alt IG, @opium_00pium, as a trailer for MUSIC. Previously thought to be from mid 2023 (MUSIC V2). Seems to be either the intro to this early version of MUSIC or for the other project worked with Izzo. Was thought to end up on BABY BOI, but this now seems unlikely. Many of Izzo's adlibs were reused in "ALIVE" (and many other songs too), and the choir was used in the live intro/interlude of "OMERTÀ*". The song was group bought by Carti Hub for 11k and later surfaced on July 11, 2025. The song is not a demo.

OG Filename: pbc 3-2-22 According to Carti's manager, "WICKED" was planned to be the lead single for "MUSIC" for unspecified amount of time and was supposed to drop 3 weeks after it leaked. Leaked after a succesful groupbuy to which half of the sum was contributed by community goat Hells. Later also previewed on OVO Radio. Recorded on March 2nd 2022. Was confirmed to officially be called 'WICKED' in an interview with Cardo Got Wings. This is the song Carti discussed during his XXL interview; the first time it was ever known that Carti was changing his flow.

Released by Guap Tarantino on his soundcloud on August 14th, 2022. Was removed around 8 hours later due to Carti not clearing his verse.
