Cardi B has finally revealed the plans for her long-overdue sophomore album.
On Monday, June 23, the Grammy award-winning rapper announced the title of her upcoming album, Am I The Drama? The album is set to feature 23 tracks, including her recent hit "Outside" and her previous singles "Up" and "WAP" featuring Megan Thee Stallion. Bardi made the anticipated announcement after she dropped a trailer for the album over the weekend. The visuals show the "Like What" spitta wearing an all-black dress while surrounded by black crows.
“Seven years and the time has come. Seven years of love, light and loss,” Cardi said in the video.
“Seven years I gave them grace, but now I give them hell," she continued. "I learned power’s not giving, it’s taking. I’m shedding feathers and no more tears. I’m not back, I’m beyond. I’m not your villain, I’m your karma. The time is here. The time is now.”
It's been seven years since fans received her debut LP Invasion of Privacy. The album sold over 103K in its first week and has gone 4x platinum. Since then, Cardi dropped an assortment of music from solo tracks like "Press" to collaborations with the hottest acts in the game, like Rob49's "On Dat Money" and GloRilla's "Wanna Be." She also welcomed three kids, Kulture, Wave, and Blossom, with her now-estranged husband Offset.
Cardi B has kept fans waiting on her second album, especially within the past three years. She told her fans about most of the trials and tribulations she's experienced while recording the project. Recently, the "Enough (Miami)" rapper vented about impatiently waiting for verses from the featured artists on her album. Now, it seems like the wait will finally be over.
