Is Carry On - XXXTENTACION halal according to Sistani?
Haram (1/5). Under Ayatollah Sistani's framework, the song is ruled Haram (Rating 1/5). The musical backing consists of a modern lo-fi hip-hop beat featuring a melancholic acoustic guitar loop and vocal sampling. Although slow and somber, this tune type is a commercial entertainment product recognized by experts as suitable for casual amusement and entertainment gatherings.
Is Carry On - XXXTENTACION halal according to Khamenei?
Likely Haram (2/5). Under Ayatollah Khamenei's framework, the song is ruled Haram (Rating 2/5: Overall Lahwī Character Likely). The song's holistic character—combining a melancholic, self-destructive emotional tone with heavy profanity ('fucking', 'bitch') and references to being 'drunk and confused'—serves to divert the listener from the remembrance of Allah (dhikr) and spiritual mindfulness, driving them toward carelessness and despair.
