Playboi Carti Posts Picture of Justin Bieber Listening to ‘Like Weezy’ From New Album ‘Music’

"I told her I'm big like Bieber, she ain't believe me," Carti raps on the track.

Justin Bieber put his stamp of approval on Playboi Carti‘s JB-name-dropping track “Like Weezy” from the rapper’s latest album, Music.

Bieber posted a since-expired Instagram Story of himself with “Like Weezy” playing over it. In the chorus, Carti raps, “I told her I’m big like Bieber, she ain’t believe me.” And the Atlanta rapper put up the screenshot on his @opium_00pium account Monday (March 17).
