Album Description
Available in:
Am I the Drama? (stylized in all caps) is the second studio album by American rapper Cardi B. It was released on September 19, 2025, by Atlantic Records. It serves as the follow-up to her debut album, Invasion of Privacy (2018). The album includes features from Summer Walker, Selena Gomez, Kehlani, Lizzo, Cash Cobain, Lourdiz, Janet Jackson, Tyla, and Megan Thee Stallion. To promote the album, Cardi B will embark on the Little Miss Drama Tour in 2026.

Following the release of Invasion of Privacy in 2018, Cardi B partly took time off to focus on motherhood and ventured into other forms of entertainment, including television and fashion. "WAP" featuring Megan Thee Stallion was released on August 7, 2020, and was followed by "Up" on February 5, 2021. The rapper revealed that the album would shortly follow however, the project was delayed multiple times, citing perfectionism and pressure to live up to expectations.

Arriving over seven years after its predecessor, the project was recorded over a six-year period and features collaborations with artists she has worked with before as well as new collaborators. After sharing a teaser related to an announcement on June 22, 2025, the rapper officially revealed the album artwork and the release date the next day via social media. Am I the Drama? features twenty-three tracks, including "WAP", "Up" and the lead single, "Outside". The decision to include "WAP" and "Up" drew some criticism, to which Cardi B responded by tweeting that the songs were among her biggest hits and "deserve a home," even though they were released during the album's creative process.

Starting with "Money" six months after the release of Invasion of Privacy, the rapper released 12 more standalone singles and collaborations with her credited as a lead artist over the following seven years, including the Billboard Hot 100 number-one songs "WAP" (2020) and "Up" (2021). She returned in 2024 with "Like What (Freestyle)" and the top-ten single "Enough (Miami)", which were intended to herald a new era. Shortly before the album announcement, she released the lead single "Outside" on June 20, 2025, which became a viral hit and earned her another top-ten placement on the Billboard Hot 100. not an album that a rival would want to go up against". Steven J. Horowitz of Variety referred to "Am I the Drama?" as a "unflinching, raw and refined" album that "never loses its footing", and praised tracks concerning her divorce such as "Shower Tears" and "Magnet" for giving the album "much-needed heft". He noted the addition of the previously released tracks "WAP" and "Up", describing them as " comfortably with the rest of the record", and concluded that the album "shrugs off the threat of a sophomore slump".

Writing for Clash, Robin Murray commented how "Am I the Drama?" is an album that "at first curiously struggles to find its footing" before an "assured mid-section guides Cardi B to the next level of her career". He noted the tracks "Pick It Up" with Selena Gomez and "Bodega Baddie" as being highlights from the album, with the "dazzling light of their vocals honing in on femme effervescence" on the former, while describing the latter as "one of the record’s most confident solo expressions" and "the sound of an icon reclaiming their own identity". Kiana Fitzgerald of Consequence noted the tracks addressing "other women MCs", such as the track "Magnet" which she describes as a "pointed attack" at fellow rapper JT that "shatters image", along with the track "Pretty & Petty" " her beef" with Boston rapper Bia. She described the singles "Outside" and "Imaginary Playerz" as " like leftovers within the context of the album", concluding that "Am I the Drama?" is "no Invasion of Privacy", but "Cardi B is closer to fighting form than she’s been in years".

In more mixed reviews, Sam Franzini of The Line of Best Fit described Cardi as not "making it any easier on herself" by releasing a new record "during a year that is several removed from when she was a topic of cultural conversation", but that "the field isn’t as stacked this year" with "rap dominated headlines", which should be "an open path to victory". However, he concluded that "few of Am I the Drama?'s songs seem poised to stick around", describing the album's tracks as "fine at best and miserable at worst". He offered praise to the previously released "WAP" and "Up", describing the former as "doing a lot of heavy lifting" and the latter as not " any of its star power from 2021". Franzini highlighted the new track "Trophies", describing it as " some intensity", while noting that the tracks "Magnet" and "Pretty & Petty" are "structurally solid but shallow". Writing for The Times, Will Hodgkinson described "Am I the Drama?" as "a record that would have been seriously good at half the length".
