Released one year ago, “Broke Boi” was the standout record by Playboi Carti. The record has over 10 million streams on Soundcloud. Because of it, MTV profiled the Atlanta-based entertainer and many other notable websites. Now, the energetic rapper is in a music video with A$AP Rocky and UnoTheActivist. Dancing in the midst of rich folks in a mansion and swinging golf clubs in the front yard, the guys know how to enjoy themselves. Subsequently, the creamy visuals make the repetitious one-word chanting background music. “What” is directed by Rocky’s creative team, AWGE. Watch the elaborate, funny video for the forthcoming album below.
