Cardi B has quickly become a focal point of online discussion after she announced plans to release another album in less than a year. During an X Spaces session on Monday, October 27, 2025, Cardi clarified that she does not plan to extend her current album release cycle. Instead, she shared that she’s working on her next major project.“I’m not putting out a deluxe, and I’m not doing a remix album. What I gave you is what y’all getting. However, I want to put out another project, another album — in less than a year.”She noted that this era would extend beyond music into images, ideas, and branding.“I want new pictures, new videos, new vibes. After tour, I want a new era. I feel like I’m a new person again.”Cardi B returned to the music scene with her sophomore album, Am I the Drama?, on September 19, 2025. It features 23 songs, including her previous big hits like WAP and Up, as well as new tracks and high-profile collaborations. She has been promoting it through live performances and social media. However, the news of a new release so soon after her last has caused quite a debate among fans.While some were excited about Cardi B diving into a new project quickly, others questioned if this move reflects the performance of her current album.

One fan said that launching a new project after her tour would be a good idea.Naykid_truth @NaykidTruthLINK@RedMedia_us This is actually smart after the tour just drop a new album while the buzz is there.. she already spend 7 yrs bet her 1st n 2nd album .. she should do a double album soonOthers encouraged consistent output and expressed hope for a different feature lineup.waytron ♡ @Waytron2LINK@RedMedia_us yesss this is exactly what we need, consistency, and I hope it’s another rap album but with male features only since AITD has all females and 1 male, and possibly a Latin album with bad bunny @iamcardib 💕.just_bri @just_bri26LINK@RedMedia_us Maybe it should be a mixtape so it doesn't mess up the momentum of her successful comeback album.
