It's been three years since that jam-packed debut dropped, and fans can't wait to hear what's coming up on her sophomore album. Here's what we know so far. What is Cardi B's new album called? So far, a title for Cardi B's new album hasn't been announced. The rapper's debut album is called 'Invasion Of Privacy', and her previous mixtapes are titled 'Gangsta B*tch Music, Vol. 1,' 'Underestimated: The Album' and 'Gangsta B*tch Music, Vol. 2.' When is Cardi B's new album dropping? In October, Cardi tweeted that a new album would be coming in 2021. In December, she said, "Music coming sooner than you think. I mean it this time." In August 2020, Cardi confirmed to Angie Martinez during an interview that the album wasn't quite ready yet. "I'm already plotting my next move," she teased, speaking on the success of her hit single 'WAP' with Megan Thee Stallion. "I have other projects coming out that doesn't involve music, but when it comes to music I think I'm going to put out another single. I don't have my album ready yet. But even when I feel I have my album ready, I'm still debating when I should put out an album too. The rapstress insinuated that she'd been putting off the release of the album until the pandemic was more under control. "I want to do real f**kin' interviews. I want to see people and sit down. I want to tour. I want to do parties, go to the club and shake my a** to my own music." In July 2020, Cardi B teased the launch of her new music by encouraging her fans to sign up to her website for exclusive details. " SIGN UP FOR NEW MUSIC, MERCH AND MORE . Be the first Ones to know!" she wrote. The new era appears to have a flora and fauna theme, with the imagery showing Cardi sitting on the back of a large peacock (the rapstress has an elaborate peacock tattoo across her leg and back). In June 2020, Cardi confirmed on Twitter that her second album is on the way. " The music coming sweety," she told a hater who dissed her on the site, before replying to a fan, " It's coming. Its going to hit too. " In April 2020, Cardi B announced that the follow-up to 'Invasion Of Privacy' would be dropping at some point in 2020. Marking the anniversary of her debut album - her "first baby" - Cardi revealed that her second studio album is on the way. "Happy Birthday Miss INVASION OF PRIVACY. My first baby," she wrote on social media. "Im workin on her sister so I can birth her this year." In February 2020, Cardi told Baller Alert that she hasn't put an exact date on the album yet and won't do so until she's ready. " I can never put a date on it because, like, when you feel like you’ve got those songs, that’s when it’s gonna come out," Cardi said. "I cannot put a date on my ears, you know what I’m saying?" Two years prior, in April 2018, Cardi announced her first album on stage after winning the award for Best New Artist at the 2018 iHeartRadio Music Awards. After thanking her team, fans and husband Offset, she confirmed: "My album will be coming in April. Yessir, April." What songs are on Cardi B's new album? In a conversation with Mariah Carey for Interview magazine in late February 2021, Cardi spoke about the expectations for her new record. "I feel like I’m missing some songs," Cardi told Mariah. "Everybody’s rushing me to put it out, but I don’t know if it’s the right time. When I do interviews, I like to be in people’s faces. I hate Zoom meetings. They’re just so weird. I like to do listening parties. You can’t even tour. That s**t’s wack as f**k." "I do have a song like ‘Be Careful,’" she revealed, after Mariah said the Invasion Of Privacy track was her favourite, "but I think it’s more personal. People were saying, ‘You need to be softer. You need to talk more about yourself.’ And I was telling them that it’s really hard for me to do love records and express myself like that because I never do that. I don’t talk about love and s**t." On February 1st 2021, Cardi announced the release of her single 'Up', which is expected to appear on her new album. The song and video dropped on 4th February. The artwork sees Cardi perched on a round metal swing suspended in the air against a cityscape backdrop, her body wrapped in a clear bodysuit with purple sparkles. As for the music video, Cardi can be seen in a variety of colourful, racy outfits, joined by a bevy of dancers. In January 2021, a report from Page Six claimed Cardi was preparing to release a new solo single, with a source describing it as "definitely a club song" with "lots of energy." The source added that Cardi's camp had yet to make a decision over what single would be Cardi’s next, and details of her upcoming releases were still being ironed out. During an interview with Elle, Cardi revealed that her new album will have some Beyoncé-inspired Lemonade moments, in reference to the singer's 2016 album which was partially about Jay-Z's infidelity. "My music is always going to make a woman feel like a bad b*tch. When you make a woman feel like she’s the baddest b*tch in the room, to me, that’s female empowerment," she said. "But this album is going to be really different. Of course, it’s going to have my Lemonade moments, my personal relationship moments." Cardi and her now-estranged husband Offset split in 2018 but later reconciled. On his solo album Father of 4 , Offset apologises to Cardi for "breaking your heart, breaking our promise." "If you all are so curious to know about my relationship and blah, blah, blah, I’m going to put it in the f*ckin’ music, and you can buy it, too," said Cardi. "I’m not going to give it to you all for free." At present, no official tracklist for Cardi B's new album has been confirmed. However, her new song 'WAP' featuring Megan Thee Stallion could well be on the new record. The track dropped on Friday August 7th, 2020 along with the official music video, which featured Cardi and Megan as well as cameos from Kylie Jenner, Normani and more. In March 2020, Cardi previewed an unreleased song, titled 'Respect', in an Atlanta club. After the DJ played a short snippet, Cardi gave him the green light to play the full track for the lucky crowd. In February 2020, the rapper told Baller Alert that she's making progress with the record, but it needs "a couple more club hits". "I have my cool, calm, and [collected] songs, just missing a couple more club hits,” Cardi said. "But we’re getting there".
