The Dark Side Of Playboi Carti Fans

The Playboi Carti fandom, often referred to as the Opium fandom, has developed a reputation for being one of the most intense and unpredictable groups in modern music. While Playboi Carti himself has stayed in the headlines for his legal issues and mysterious rollouts, the stories involving his fans have taken a turn toward the surreal and, in some cases, the tragic. This video explores the full spectrum of this community, starting with the lighter but chaotic stories and moving into the darker, more serious events that have unfolded over the last few years. We begin with the recent hack involving Detroit rapper Veeze on February 28th, 2026. After 100 of his songs were leaked by hackers claiming to be Playboi Carti fans, including tracks with production from Pi’erre Bourne and features from Lucki, it became clear that the fandom is willing to sabotage other artists to get what they want. From there, we look back at the 2024 ComplexCon incident where Playboi Carti and Travis Scott were headlining and a fan was allegedly confronted by the Opium entourage after a prank went wrong. We also revisit the infamous 2020 billboard incident where fans of Playboi Carti sprayed over an advertisement for the artist Phora, leading to a massive social media fallout. The second half of this video covers much more serious territory, and viewer discretion is strongly advised. We discuss the disturbing case of an alleged Carti Fan who was arrested following alleged ritualistic actions performed in an effort to get the attention of Ken Carson and the Opium label. We also touch on the unsettling social media activity of producer 16yearold, an affiliate of Playboi Carti and Ken Carson known for producing Mo Bamba, and the heartbreaking 2025 incident in Houston that occurred during a dispute over I Am Music promotional posters. Finally, we break down the rise and fall of the community’s most notorious hacker, King Bob, also known as Noah Urban. While many viewed him as a Robin Hood figure for leaking grails and information related to Playboi Carti, Lil Uzi Vert, and Ariana Grande, his 2024 arrest revealed a much larger criminal operation.
