In what started as a misunderstanding, Atlanta’s very own Playboi Carti and Chicago’s very own Lucki found themselves in a dispute on social media. This sparked a universal interest within each of their fanbases.
The incident between the two began when Lucki had originally posted a video displaying his new chain, captioning it with the phrase “crosses up.” Playboi Carti had taken this as a suppressed shot at him, as he is known for his upside-down cross tattoo. Carti’s reaction to the situation was immediate, and he distinguished it as a diss. Due to the reaction of Carti, tensions quickly escalated.
As tensions continued to increase, Lucki put out the fire as he was quick to clarify the situation. Lucki quickly denied any intentional disses on Playboi Carti, and even shed light on the fact that the reference to the “crosses up” caption was completely unrelated. While clarifying his viewpoint, Lucki took a fun jab at the situation, adding that Carti took it too personally. Lucki simply cleared up the fact that he had a more loving attitude towards Jesus than Carti did. Regardless of the explanation from Lucki, the misunderstanding stuck around for quite a while and eventually caught the attention of another rapper from Atlanta, Ken Carson. Carson is Carti’s labelmate, and as he caught eye of the situation, he decided to rub salt into the wound of the online misunderstanding.
While Lucki’s clarification attempted to defuse the intensity of the situation, the beef continued to linger around in the social media world, leaving a discussion and dispute between the two fanbases. The beef left many fans speechless and showcased how the internet and social media world can twist words quickly, turning a small misunderstanding into a dramatic situation.
Luckily, the situation has not escalated to any diss tracks or increased to an unhealthy state of revenge. But the question remains, will Lucki and Carti come to a compromise? Or is this really the start of something bigger? Only the future holds the answer but fans will definitely be the first on the lookout for any unusual activity.
