Cardi B has given fans a fresh glimpse into her long-awaited sophomore album, CB2, revealing a key detail that has sent her fanbase into a frenzy. During a recent Twitter Spaces session, the Bronx rapper shared personal updates, touching on her highly publicized divorce from Offset and, more importantly, her new music.
While discussing the project, Cardi dropped a surprising revelation—there are currently no features from female rappers.
“Yet,” she added, leaving room for speculation. Though she didn’t elaborate on why she hasn’t included collaborations with her female rap peers, she expressed excitement about the album and its carefully curated guest appearances.
“The features on my album are really good,” she teased. “I don’t have a lot of features. Well, it depends on what y’all consider a lot, but I don’t think I have a lot.”
She also hinted that some of the artists appearing on CB2 are familiar names.
“I’m working with people I’ve collaborated with before and some I haven’t,” she said. “And the ones I haven’t worked with? I think y’all are really gonna be surprised. It’s a whole vibe.”
Cardi exuded confidence about the project, making it clear that she believes she has crafted something unique.
“I can tell y’all this—I’m 100 percent confident in this album,” she declared. “I don’t think what I got is out there right now. So that’s all I’m gonna say. I gave y’all some clues, and that’s it. Bye-bye, talk to you later.”
The pressure surrounding CB2 is immense. Cardi B’s debut album, Invasion of Privacy, dominated the charts when it dropped in April 2018. Fueled by hits like “Bodak Yellow,” the album debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, earned her a Grammy for Best Rap Album, and shattered records for the highest first-week sales for a female rap album since Nicki Minaj’s Pink Friday in 2010.
With such a legacy to uphold, Cardi’s sophomore effort has a lot to live up to. But if her confidence is any indication, she’s ready to shake the industry once again.
