Kenyatta Lee Frazier Jr. (born April 11, 2000), known professionally as Ken Carson, is an American rapper and record producer from Atlanta, Georgia. Carson initially gained attention for his SoundCloud releases and collaborations with fellow Atlanta rapper Playboi Carti. In 2019, Carson signed with the latter's record label Opium, an imprint of Interscope Records to release his debut studio album, Project X (2021).

His second album, X (2022), entered the Billboard 200 despite unfavorable critical reception.[2] His third studio album, A Great Chaos (2023), peaked number 11 on the chart and saw a critical incline; its deluxe release spawned his first Billboard Hot 100 entry with the single "Overseas".[3]

Carson is associated with Opium label-mates Destroy Lonely and Homixide Gang.[4]
