    Cardi B is "always in some drama"

    The 32-year-old rap star is set to release her long-awaited new album, Am I the Drama?, later this year, and Cardi has revealed the inspiration behind her album title.


    Asked if the album name was a reference to Scarlet Envy's quote from RuPaul's Drag Race, Cardi told People: "It's just actually a mood that I feel because I feel like I'm always in some drama, and I don't understand why I'm always in some drama.

    "It's like, 'Damn, am I the drama? Is it me? Like, what? Why am I always in some s***? But I do know she said it on Drag Race and it's like, 'Well s***, great minds think alike.'

    "She said it before me, and I'm gonna give her, always, the props. I always give people props, and I love her, and I'm gonna be working with her more often. And, like, look who ended up winning Drag Race at the end?"

    Cardi released her debut album, Invasion of Privacy, in April 2018, and the chart-topping star thinks she's "evolved" a lot since then.

    Cardi - who split from her husband Offset in 2023 - said: "I dealt with a lot for seven years. It has been a journey, and I have evolved as a person and as an artist, and I cannot wait for you guys to hear that."

    Cardi is one of the best-selling artists in the world, but she previously claimed to have been happier before she found fame.

    The Bodak Yellow hitmaker doesn't have any money worries these days, but she's less happy than she used to be.

    Cardi - who has Kulture, six, Wave, three, and a daughter, whose name has not been revealed, born in September - told CR Fashion Book magazine: "One positive thing is that, my family, whatever they want, they get. Everything that I want to buy, I can get. I don't have to worry so much about my future.

    "One negative thing is that, even though I'm happy, I feel like I was a little bit happier two or three years ago when I had less money."
