The rap game is no stranger to innovation, but TWXN is taking things to the next level. Known for their uncanny ability to replicate the Playboi Carti sound and vibe, the three people creating TWXN’s music are harnessing AI technology to modulate voices, creating a vocal aesthetic that has fans doing double-takes. In fact, one of the people laying vocals for TWXN releases is North Carolina-based artist known as 507KAZ aka KAZZAI. As revealed in Eleven 11’s new video, “The Playboi Carti AI Rapper Outstreaming Destroy Lonely,” this mysterious artist is racking up millions of streams and catching the attention of fans everywhere.
With over 4 million monthly Spotify listeners and the hit single “Telescope” surpassing 4 million views on YouTube, TWXN’s success is hard to ignore. But there’s more than meets the eye. Many assume TWXN is an entirely AI-generated rapper, when in reality, they are an artist who uses AI as a tool, often emulating Playboi Carti’s distinct style.
The story of TWXN’s rise comes to a head with the release of their 19-track album I HATE TWXN, which dropped in late August 2024. This follows their earlier project Project YVL, where the viral “Telescope” track made its mark. The video digs into the mystery behind TWXN’s creators and their decision to push the boundaries of rap by blending tech with creativity.
As of now, TWXN has more monthly listeners than Plaboi Carti affiliate Destroy Lonely, a feat that has many questioning the future of music in the AI era. If one thing’s clear from the Eleven 11 video, TWXN’s impact isn’t just a fleeting internet moment—it’s a full-blown revolution.
