Cardi B fans have been eagerly awaiting the release of her highly anticipated sophomore album, but it seems they'll have to wait a bit longer. In a candid late-night Instagram Live session, the rapper shared some major updates about the album's progress and her personal life.
Cardi admitted that she's been feeling "very emotional" lately, as she's had a tumultuous year filled with ups and downs. She revealed that she "fell in love, then fell out of love, then got a divorce" and has been partying non-stop as a result.
"I don't know what the f*** is going on," Cardi said. "I'm going through a very different transition in my f***ing life and life is moving a little bit too fast. I don't want to crash."
Despite the personal turmoil, Cardi is determined to get her act together and focus on her music. She vowed to start working on the album from that day forward, with the goal of releasing it in 2025.
"Next year, my album will be out, my secret businesses will be out," Cardi shared. "I can't tell you what I'm working on. Hopefully next year I get me a little boyfriend; I'm hoe-less right now. I gotta get my s*** together."
This delay comes as a disappointment to fans, who have been waiting six long years since Cardi's debut album, Invasion of Privacy, was released in 2018. The rapper had previously promised to release the new album before the end of this year, but it seems the pressures of her personal life have derailed those plans.
Reactions from fans have been mixed, with some expressing frustration over the constant delays, while others remain loyal and supportive of Cardi's journey. One fan tweeted, "I'm not buying or streaming cb2 tf i waited this whole year on her I'm beyond tired all these lil hints and weird s*** f*** cardi b and her album she can keep it atp."
Meanwhile, another fan expressed unwavering faith, saying, "Idc how much I complain for the album. I still believe in Cardi so Ima still be here waiting for Cb2 to drop like 🥺."
Regardless of the fans' reactions, it's clear that Cardi B is going through a significant transition in her life, and she's taking the time to ensure that her next musical offering is truly reflective of her current state of mind. While the wait may be frustrating, her honesty and transparency with her fans are admirable, and they'll undoubtedly be eagerly anticipating what she has in store for 2025.
