Cardi B is promising her new album this year…
While celebrating the sixth anniversary of her Grammy-winning debut album, Invasion of Privacy, the 31-year-old half-Dominican American rap superstar teased the release of her sophomore effort before year’s end.
Invasion of Privacy was released in 2018, debuting at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 albums chart and earning a Grammy win for best rap album at the 2019 Grammy Awards. The set’s tracklist includes Hot 100 No. 1 singles “Bodak Yellow” and “I Like It.”
Cardi B looked back at the success of her studio debut in a post on X on Saturday (April 6).
In her message, she hinted at what fans can expect from her long-awaited second album.
“6 years ago I released my first album and it broke so many records GAH LEE!!” she wrote. “6 years later I’m preparing to drop the next one this year.. it’s so different from what everyone is expecting and I’m sooo excited.”
“Love you guys and thank you for the support! I’ll talk to ya soon I been so busy these last few days,” added Cardi.
Cardi most recently unveiled the single “Enough (Miami)” on March 15 along with a Patience Harding-directed music video for the track. “Enough” arrived two weeks after she dropped “Like What (Freestyle).”
She’s also featured on “Puntería,” the opening track from Shakira’s Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran album that was just released on March 22.
