Cardi B Teases Delayed Sophomore Album 'Coming Really, Really Soon!'

Cardi B is taking on some errands with a nine-day trip to Los Angeles. The Bronx native took to X Spaces on Wednesday afternoon (October 16) to discuss her plans while on the West Coast, which include tending to her long-awaited sophomore LP.

“I'm also in Los Angeles because I have to do something about the album. I know you're going to be like, “What the fk, bh?” But it's something that will happen very quickly,” he said. “It will be one or two. I did it when I was pregnant and nothing turned out the way I wanted, so we have to do it again.”

Cardi went on without saying exactly what she was supposed to do for the LP. “It's going to be amazing and unique because everything I do has to be amazing and unique,” he promised. “Sorry for the delay. It won't be crazy late. It will turn out amazing. I'll be out here for nine days.”

More than six years have passed since 2018 Invasion of privacy and Cardi has teased the album for 2024, but the calendar days left in the year are dwindling.

“The album is coming very, very soon, the announcements are coming very soon,” he later promised. “Things are happening more now! I am no longer pregnant.”

Cardi delivered a pair of singles with the Billboard Hot 100 hits “Enough (Miami)” and “Like What (Freestyle)” earlier this year, but then cooled off and leaned on some assists while jumping on Rob 49's “On Dat Money” and “Wanna Be (Remix)” by Megan Thee Stallion and GloRilla.

The 32-year-old also gave birth to her third child with estranged husband Offset in September. After filing for divorce from rapper Migos in late July, Cardi is enjoying her new chapter in life.

“Life was really strange,” he added. “I'm free and I'm having fun, but I feel like I'm free and I'm having fun, I have to stop because I don't want it to get in the way of my work. I'm paranoid about giving people my time, I'm just playing around at the moment,” he said with a laugh. “I just want peace.”
