Cardi B has just had her third baby, but that hasn’t slowed her down. Just hours after sharing photos of her newborn, she announced on social media that it’s “crunch time” for her new album.
Despite the recent addition to her family, Cardi B is already diving back into her music. She shared the news on X, along with photos of her baby girl, who arrived on September 7. However, Cardi and her husband Offset haven’t revealed their daughter’s name yet. The new baby joins the couple’s other children, Kulture, 6, and Wave, who turned 3 just days before his sister’s birth.
Cardi B has been tight-lipped about the details of her upcoming album. However, fans have some clues. In July, her company applied for trademarks related to two intriguing phrases: “Defamation of character” and “Intrusive thoughts.” These might hint at the album’s themes or even its title. She plans to use these trademarks not just for her album but also for music videos and downloadable music files.
Her debut album, “Invasion Of Privacy,” released in 2018, has been incredibly successful. It recently sold another 500,000 units this year alone, earning a 4x Platinum certification. Reacting to this milestone, Cardi hinted that her sophomore effort is on the way, joking on X about how well her first album is still selling. Cardi also quipped about the pressure of finalizing her new album, stating she has been busy mixing and mastering 40-50 songs.
Cardi stirred some controversy recently when she posted a photo from her recording studio, captioning it in a way that led fans to think she was comparing her label to a jail. She quickly clarified that it was just a joke about spending countless hours in the studio. She even defended her right to joke about her experiences, including motherhood, without being misunderstood.
The album’s cover photos are already done, but Cardi is undecided on which one to choose. This indicates that the album’s release might be sooner than fans expect.
Cardi B’s dedication to her music is evident as she juggles motherhood and her career. With her new album on the horizon, fans eagerly await what the star has in store.
