Cave Era

OG Filename: K-9 NOEL REF Samples Twista's "Slow Jamz". Was previewed for the first time by Swamp Izzo in a club, on June 25, 2025. It was then confirmed to have a beat switch, when another snippet surfaced on Oct 15, 2025. Adin Ross played a snippet of Drake's verse on stream, on November 10, 2025. We learned that it was considered to be released on Drake's 2023 studio album, "For All The Dogs". Which could explain the somewhat off mix it has; Drake's engineers must've worked on this version. In fact, this track is basicaly a stem edit made by Drake's team, combining his song "K-9" with Carti's track "READY OR NOT". Which was also discovered to have intially been placed as the intro [1] on the 2023 MUSIC iteration (under the name 'READY OR NOT' [2]), before Drake hopped on it. It's almost certain that as soon as Carti linked up with Kendrick Lamar, this track inevitably ended up getting scrapped. Which explains why there wasn't any pressure from Carti's team to stop it from surfacing; it could've never been released anyway. Leaked in CDQ on November 22, 2025. Shortly after surfacing, F1LTHY validated the concept of "the Cave Era", by commenting that it was actually recorded in the infamous cave in France. [3].

OG Filename: pbc 6-16-23 4 f1 Leaked after a successful gb. Features a brand new voice flow (1:07-1:29). Though the file that leaked was the same quality as the original file, the filename itself had been modified and artifically contained the word "roar", which lead to the misconception that the song was actually titled "Roar". It was later assumed that "roar" actually alluded to the name of producer Roark Bailey, who presumably had contributed to the songs production, until it was eventually revealed that the entire filename had been falsified. Recorded during the same sessions as "ON B5". Real OG file leaked on Sep 4, 2025.

OG Filename: pbc 6-19-23 2 DY Leaked after a successful 8k GB in Carti Hub. Recorded during the same session as 'POP OUT'. Was originally going to be previewed live instead of 'POP OUT', but the song got replaced. RPC "confirmed" the song's name to be 'COPS'. Rumored to be pbd for 35k before being put up for GB.

This song is heavily speculated to be on BABY BOI. Along with insiders stating, that this will likely release on it. Reuses the choir from "DRUGS GOT ME NUMB" only in the tour version. Was previewed in full, on Carti's Rolling Loud Miami on Dec 15, 2024. It's said to have been recorded on 2023. Stated to be recorded during the Cave Studio sessions by the KingBob twitter account [1]. The song was played by Ty Dolla $ign on his livestream on October 12, 2025 shortly until turning the volume off, the choir is not part of the song, most likely was used for Rolling Loud only.

A snippet previewed on Carti's IG Story, alongside its music video, on June 17, 2024. Might be the 'wondagurl x ye' snippet. Mixed by Fritz Owens. We know this song was made during MUSIC V2, since it's written down on a tracklist from that era. It was planned to be a single for the MUSIC V3 rollout, but ended up being scrapped (alongside it's MV). The name 'SHE DON'T LEAVE', is confirmed to be the official name of the song, thanks to the tracklist mentioned, and insiders' confirmations on the subject. Samples "Isn't It A Shame" by LaBelle.

The KingBob twitter account said "drake got onnis? Or is dat an edit" implying that the song was originally a Carti solo. At one point it was the intro to MUSIC. [1] Originally titled "Ready or Not" according to the KingBob twitter account. [2] This file is an edit of what the solo version of Carti's song would sound like without Drake's verse. There might be some inaccuracies with the mixing.

OG Filename: pbc HOMICIDE55555 8.29.23 A follow-up to Carti's darker theme. Was originally thought to be "Believe Me" a.k.a "Stress", due to tune with seller scamming comm. The song got popular on social media, which allegedly made Carti, or the label, consider the song for the final release of the album.

A grail since the moment a snippet of it surfaced on June 29, 2023. Initially believed by many to be AI-generated, it was eventually offered at a price of $15,000 shortly before it was force-leaked the same day by Shogani. The real file has only 1:20 of vocals and an open verse. This file has the vocals looped over the open verse instead, making the song technically a partial/self-bounced leak since it was modified from it's original state. The sessions for this song are in the hands of leakers who claim that the song was never finished. The previously known file name is fake; this song cannot be from May 2022. One simple piece of evidence to support this is Uzi's growl at the start, which he only really started doing on his songs around November 2022, eventually developing it fully by the beginning of 2023. This technically verifies @uzirareupdates’ information for the song: Uzi recorded for the song on June 29th, but Carti's part was allegedly recorded back on May 22, 2023 (same session as FOMDJ).

Snippet previewed by King Bob account admin on June 29, 2025. Snippet was manually pitched down/slowed down so it might've lost quality. On October 28, 2025 King Bob stated that the song is 13 mins in length. The first 9 mins of the song include voice changes and flow switches but the last 4 mins are nonsense according to Bob. Bob also confirmed THE TRUTH IS is Cave Era and not August 2022 [1] when asked what his favorite Cave Era song was. Another snippet leaked by Bob twitter account admin on Nov 1, 2025.

The track’s instrumental features the same piano chords as a demo version of 'Made It' by Ye, which was originally intended for 'Donda'. First previewed by Offset, it was inteded to be released on his album 'SET IT OFF' before it was ultimately scrapped due to Carti refusing to clear his verse. It was later significantly reworked, releasing on NAV's album 'OMW2 REXDALE' under the title of 'UNLIMITED'. Offset's presence was entirely removed in favor of new vocals from NAV and The Weeknd.

Solo Drake version of K-9 rumored to exist before being stitched together with Playboi Carti's song.

A remix of Tommy Wright III's song from 1994, "Meet Yo Maker". A snippet of the song, along with a snippet of its music video, surfaced on August 13, 2024, hyping up the idea of Carti trying to do more "experimental" tracks. Photos from the MV shoot leaked on October 17, 2023. The song was put up for group buy for $9,000 by Carti Hub but was later force-leaked for free. The filename that had leaked was fake; the file that leaked was actually ripped from the unreleased music video and heavily degraded. The video itself would later leak on September 4, 2025. Recorded during the same session as ON B5 and CUM*. The Music Video OG File, was leaked by Vad_3r on October 25, 2025. The audio stream of the video had the MYM file in CDQ, which was ripped pefectly by luvsy999.

An unheard collaboration between Lil Uzi Vert, Playboi Carti & Ken Carson is said to exist. Likely Carti's song, due to Ken Carson's involvement. It might've been made on the MUSIC V2 era, since it was then when Uzi was closely working with Opium and matches the date Bob mentioned it.

On November 21, 2024, Playboi Carti released a new track through his finsta account, @opium_00pium with the caption "PLAY THIS". Carti also announced that he would also be dropping more music on Friday, November 22, 2024. A tweet from Luka Sabbat from August 10, 2023 cited some of the lyrics from this song. Almost pefect RIP (near CDQ) got by @luvsy999 on discord
