Cardi B Is Dropping A New Album This Year

2019 is shaping up to be a productive year for Cardi B, who just announced that she’s planning on releasing a new album this year. 

“Of course it’s gonna be an album in 2019,” she said in an Instagram Live video. “Hopefully, I could get my album done around the same time that Invasion of Privacy came out, but I don’t know how possible that’s gonna be because I feel like I’m going to be extremely, extremely busy.” 

Invasion of Privacy is her multiplatinum debut full-length album, which was released last April and quickly became one of the biggest albums of the year. 

Cardi is also one of several performers sources say were in talks to appear with Maroon 5 during the group’s still-unconfirmed Super Bowl halftime set, but a source close to the rapper appeared to quash that possibility shortly before the holiday.
