Cardi B has revealed the features for her upcoming album “Am I the Drama?,” releasing this Friday.
The rapper has tapped a roster of guests including Summer Walker, Selena Gomez, Kehlani, Lizzo, Cash Cobain, Tyla, Janet Jackson and Megan Thee Stallion. She unveiled the features via Spotify billboards in Los Angeles and Miami, as well as on social media, just days before her sophomore set hits stores.
Cardi has been on a promotional blitz for the album over the past few months, releasing singles including “Outside” and “Imaginary Playerz,” which samples Jay-Z’s 1997 song “Imaginary Players.” Over the weekend, she staged a surprise pop-up in New York City that drew throngs of fans, and she plans to stage in-store meet-and-greets in Cypress, TX, Easton, PA, Riverdale, GA and Long Beach, CA in the coming week.
Earlier today, she appeared on “The Jennifer Hudson Show” and discussed why she finally decided to drop the follow-up to her debut “Invasion of Privacy,” which released in April 2018. “I feel because it was completed, it was completely completed,” she said. “I was like, this is what was missing out there. I feel like I touched on everything I wanted to touch, and I was like, I’m done. I can’t possibly fit no more.”
She also revealed that she’s gearing up for a tour, though she didn’t provide any concrete details about when she’ll be hitting the road. “I’m already preparing for it,” she said. “I’m at the gym and I’m taking dancing classes already.”
Cardi recently made headlines after taking the stand in a $24 million lawsuit where a security guard claimed she assaulted her. After she was cleared of the charges, she released a series of “Am I the Drama?” variants featuring viral stills of her testimony.
