https://music.apple.com/us/artist/playboi-carti/982372505 As the title suggests, the birth year on his Apple Music page shows that he was born in 1995. Hope this is enough of a reliable source other than a tweet or video proving he was born that year Dsnipe (talk) 20:06, 21 February 2024 (UTC)
After finally having a minute to pull up the sources for this, there is neither a consistent date of birth for 1995 or 1995, so neither can be preferred over the other per WP:DOB. All articles below point to a September 13, 1995 date of birth, and all are considered reliable.
Looking over the sources in the current article regarding the birthdate being 1996, the XXL one conflicts with their prior statement below and should not be included in favor of one date versus the other. And while Billboard has been considered a reliable source regarding album data, it has never been brought to RSN regarding BLP data (from a quick glance of the previous discussions for it), and per WP:CONTEXTMATTERS should not be included, since reliability is not inherently carried over for everything a source provides. I have added a note to the article to show the discrepancy, and hopefully the article can be unrestricted since this seemed to be the biggest problem with the back and forth of edits.

Playboi Carti was born on September 13, 1995, NOT 1996. That is false information. 2600:8806:A800:1840:94BF:3837:2027:93C1 (talk) 20:48, 9 May 2024 (UTC)

Remove "record producer" from the lead. I could only find one song that has Carti listed as producer, so it's not notable enough to be in the lead. Nice4wut (talk) 14:41, 10 May 2024 (UTC)
