The American rapper Ken Carson has released four studio albums, two mixtapes, five extended plays (EPs), fifteen singles (including four as a featured artist), and twenty music videos. Carson released his debut single "32" in 2016, followed by a series of singles that have since been delisted.[1] In 2019, he signed to Playboi Carti's record label Opium. The following year, he released two EPs, Boy Barbie and Teen X; the latter which spawned his first hit single "Yale".[1] In early 2021, Carson released the Teen X: Relapsed and Lost Files EPs before releasing his debut album, Project X, in July that year.[1][2] His second album and major label debut, X, was released though Opium and Interscope Records in 2022.[1] The album became his first to chart on both the US Billboard 200 and Top Hip-Hop Albums charts,[1] peaking at numbers 115 and 50 respectively,[3][4] whilst the non-album single "Freestyle 2" became one of his most popular songs.[5]

In October 2023, Carson released his third album A Great Chaos. Considered his breakout album, it debuted at number 11 on the Billboard 200, becoming his first top 20 album in the United States,[6] and was certified Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA);[7] it also performed well in Canada and Europe.[8] The album's deluxe edition, released in July 2024, spawned the single "Overseas", which became Carson's first charting song on the US Billboard Hot 100, at number 79.[9] Carson's fourth album More Chaos (2025) was his first to debut atop the Billboard 200 and the Top Hip-Hop Albums charts.[10]
