The American rapper first announced the title &quot;Whole Lotta Red&quot; in August&nbsp;2018, and in 2019 he revealed that Off-White&#39;s&nbsp;<a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/men/louis-vuitton-2054-virgil-abloh-second-collection" target="_blank">Virgil Abloh</a> would be the album&#39;s creative director. Since then, Carti has released one single titled &quot;@MEH&quot; in addition to&nbsp;collaborating with many of rap&#39;s biggest names on their own projects. Carti has worked with&nbsp;<a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/drake-fashion-instagram-nike-certified-lover-boy" target="_blank">Drake</a>, Lil Yachty, <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/music/solange-cover-story-interview-2019" target="_blank">Solange</a>, Tyler,&nbsp;the Creator, and Offset.

Known for his dark and gothic style, Carti modeled for <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/matthew-williams-givenchy-alyx-lady-gaga-kanye-west" target="_blank">Matthew Williams</a>&#39;s first Givenchy <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/givenchy-matthew-williams-playboi-carti-nick-knight-campaign" target="_blank">campaign</a> in September. The <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/CFhoO-JIRdo/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link" target="_blank">campaign</a> was created in collaboration with photographer Nick Knight and Carti, who can be heard riffing&nbsp;to different pronunciations of the brand&#39;s name as a printer pops out photos of Givenchy&#39;s new hardware.&nbsp;
