A week after releasing “Yes,” his first single since April’s More Chaos, Ken Carson returns with the video for “Catastrophe.” The sparse video feels like a DIY effort, with Ken rapping directly to what looks a lot like a phone camera in a bedroom being used as a storage closet.
Lyrically, the song is a loose stream of boasts with relatively simple rhyme patterns and no specific theme or through line. So, you know. A Ken Carson song. Someone out there likes it; the Atlanta rapper went No. 1 with More Chaos earlier this year.
For the time being, those folks can catch Ken and the rest of Playboi Carti’s Opium compadres on their ongoing Antagonist tour, which continues tonight in Brooklyn before heading to New Jersey, Connecticut, Philadelphia, DC, North Carolina, Florida, and concluding with a hometown show in Atlanta next month. You can see the dates for that below.
