On Sept. 19, Cardi B released her highly anticipated album “Am I the Drama?” In under 24 hours, the project went platinum, setting the record as the fastest female album ever certified by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA.)

Cardi first made history with her 2018 debut “Invasion of Privacy,” becoming the first female rapper to have every song on an album certified platinum or higher in 2022. With smart marketing and strong promotion, she has once again returned to the top of the charts.

“Am I the Drama?” features 23 tracks and collaborations with some of today’s biggest artists. Early standouts include “Safe” featuring Kehlani, “Dead” featuring Summer Walker, “Pick it Up” featuring Selena Gomez and the solo diss track “Pretty & Petty.” Cardi addresses her ongoing feuds with female rappers, her divorce from Offset, her new relationship with Stefon Diggs and claps back at those who doubt her.
