JUST IN: Cardi B Drop Huge Hits To Labelled Herself After Reveals Her Plans Over New Boyfriend And Release Date for Upcoming Sophomore Album
Cardi B is facing a wave of fan reactions after revealing that her highly anticipated sophomore album will not arrive until 2025.
On Tuesday (Nov. 19), the “Up” rapper responded to the growing impatience with a dash of humor, posting a meme of Indian singer Vennu Mallesh declaring, “Don’t believe me. I am a true liar.”
The tweet, which has garnered over 15,000 likes, sparked a mix of amusement and frustration from her followers. Social media users didn’t hold back, with some accusing Cardi of enjoying the suspense.
“You and Rihanna compete for the Best Liar Award every single year,” one fan quipped, referencing Rihanna’s elusive follow-up to 2016’s ANTI.
Another added, “As long as you take accountability, that’s all that matters.” Others joked that Cardi B might as well call it quits if the delays continue.
The delay was first announced during an Instagram Live session on Monday (Nov. 18), where Cardi provided updates on her busy schedule. “Next year, my album will be out. My secret businesses will be out — I can’t tell y’all what I’m working on — and hopefully, I’ll get myself a lil’ boyfriend,” she said, as reported by REVOLT.
This upcoming album marks the follow-up to Cardi’s 2018 debut, Invasion of Privacy, which topped the Billboard 200 upon release. The record showcased collaborations with artists like Chance the Rapper, SZA, 21 Savage, YG, Kehlani, Migos, Bad Bunny, and J Balvin. Produced by industry heavyweights including DJ Mustard, Boi-1da, and Vinylz, the album delivered massive hits like “I Like It,” “Bartier Cardi,” “Be Careful,” and the diamond-certified “Bodak Yellow.”
Though fans have waited years for her second album, Cardi has remained active in music. She’s dropped standalone singles, including “Hot S**t” with Ye and Lil Durk, “Bongos” featuring Megan Thee Stallion, and the reflective track “Enough (Miami),” released earlier this year. Despite the delay, Cardi’s dedicated fanbase remains eager for what’s next, with many hoping 2025 will finally bring the album they’ve been craving.
Until then, Cardi continues to balance her larger-than-life persona with her playful charm, keeping fans guessing and engaged.
