The Alchemist Confirms He Made the Beat for a Leaked Song With Playboi Carti & A$AP Nast

On Wednesday night (Apr. 2), Fake Shore Drive‘s Andrew Barber tweeted out a leaked song titled “Take the Soul” and claimed that the track was “Playboi Carti and A$AP Nast over Alchemist production.”

Naturally, fans went into a frenzy on X, with many of them excited to finally hear Carti over an Alchemist beat. When one fan replied to an old tweet suggesting that the West Coast legend would never work with the likes of the King Vamp himself with the leaked track, the producer quote-tweeted and said, “Imagine if i didn’t make this beat.” When a fan followed-up and asked if he actually made the beat, the producer simply wrote, “Yes.”

Billboard has reached out to reps for Playboi Carti, A$AP Nast and The Alchemist for comment.

Back in December, after details of Young Thug‘s took a plea deal in the YSL RICO case, fans joked that The Alchemist should do an introspective jazz album with Thugger. Alchemist replied, asking for someone to send him the Atlanta rapper’s number.

Then in March, The Alchemist said he wanted to work with Future when a fan asked him who was an artist that he wanted to work with that he hadn’t already. Frequent Pluto collaborator Southside caught wind of his tweet and reached out asking the him to send some beats over as he and Wheezy put the finishing touches on Future’s upcoming album.

The leaked track posted by Barber is only about two minutes long with Carti handling hook duties as A$AP Nast delivers a verse. Check out The Alchemist’s tweets below:
