Ken Carson is back with a haunting new single just in time for Halloween.
Released Oct. 31, “yes” sees the Opium rapper dive deeper into his blown-out, post-apocalyptic sound — arriving alongside his ongoing run on Playboi Carti’s Antagonist 2.0 world tour.

Produced by Clif Shyne, the track delivers Carson’s signature distortion-drenched rage, layering eerie melodies with anxious declarations like, “How you say yeah on the face / How the f*** I grow apart from you?”
Fittingly timed for the spookiest night of the year, “yes” feels like a sonic exorcism — chaotic, emotionally unhinged, and fully locked into Carson’s dark creative universe.
Fans had been waiting for the official version after weeks of leaked snippets and TikTok edits circulating online. Its release also extends Carson’s tradition of Halloween drops. In 2022, he dropped the XTENDED deluxe of X on Oct. 31. In 2023, his full-length A Great Chaos arrived two weeks before Halloween — and still dominated fan playlists during spooky season. This year, “yes” keeps the streak alive, arriving with fanfare from the Opium faithful, many of whom had been circulating snippets for weeks.
It’s also Carson’s first solo offering since More Chaos, the experimental project he dropped in early 2025 as a surprise for fans. That tape followed the A Great Chaos deluxe and helped solidify Carson’s reputation as a relentless content-dropper with cult appeal.
Live audiences are already getting a taste of “yes” on tour, with Carson’s high-energy sets often blurring the line between concert and riot. As part of the Antagonist 2.0 tour alongside labelmates like Destroy Lonely and Homixide Gang, Carson has been performing to packed venues across North America and Europe.
