Ken Carson is keeping his foot on the gas. Fresh off the sold-out finale of Playboi Carti’s Antagonist tour, the Platinum recording artist returns with “the acronym,” a highly anticipated new collaboration with Opium labelmate Destroy Lonely.
Produced by Akachi, Sonickaboom, and DJ Moon, the track delivers the dark, high-energy chemistry fans expect from the duo. Ken first teased the song last month with an acrostic spelling out “Opium,” a fitting nod to the collective shaping rap’s sound in 2025.
The release caps a massive run for Ken. His album More Chaos debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, landed on Complex’s 50 Best Albums of 2025, and became one of the year’s most-streamed rap projects on Spotify. Singles like “yes,” “catastrophe,” and “margiela” further cemented his momentum, earning critical praise and millions of streams.
Beyond music, Ken continues to expand his cultural reach through major fashion collaborations and campaigns, while drawing praise from artists and athletes alike. Looking ahead, he’ll take that energy worldwide on his “WTF” headline tour, recently expanded with new European dates, including a sold-out stop in Amsterdam. With “the acronym,” Ken Carson and Destroy Lonely prove once again that Opium’s reign is far from over.
