After keeping fans on edge for years on years, Cardi B has finally delivered what the culture has been waiting for. The Bronx-born superstar has officially turned in her highly anticipated second studio album to Atlantic Records, signaling the beginning of a new chapter in her already electric career.
“I’m finally feeling ready,” Cardi shared during a recent livestream on the Gram. “Y’all waited long enough. It’s go time.”
Okay, we’re here for it.
Since dropping Invasion of Privacy back in 2018, Cardi has held the industry in a firm grip without releasing another full-length project. Her debut earned a Grammy and went multi-platinum, setting the bar sky high for whatever came next. Fans remained hungry as the years rolled by and the follow-up continued to linger just beyond reach. But now, that wait is officially over.
Finally.
Even without a sophomore album, Cardi never lost her momentum. She kept the streets and airwaves buzzing with blockbuster hits like “WAP” featuring Megan Thee Stallion and the infectious anthem “Up,” both of which dominated the charts and proved her staying power. She also made her presence felt with headline grabbing collaborations, jumping on GloRilla’s explosive “Tomorrow 2” and delivering bars alongside Kanye West on “Hot Sh*t.”
With her next full-length project now turned into the label, the world is watching to see what Cardi has in store.
