Cardi B has been bringing the drama throughout the rollout of her Am I the Drama? sophomore album. The Grammy-winning rapper stopped by Call Her Daddy for her first-ever sit-down with host Alex Cooper on Wednesday (Sept. 24).
Throughout the hour-plus interview, they covered a ton of ground, going from Cardi’s upbringing, stripper days, cosmetic surgery, new relationship, music and her new album. Cardi was repping her new man, NFL star Stef Diggs, as she rocked the wide receiver’s New England Patriots No. 8 jersey on set.
“I wanted to do a jersey, but I wanted to do like my style and stuff like that,” she said. “I was calling my man so I could show him, but he’s asleep by this time. He goes to sleep mad early.”
The Bronx bombshell recruited a star-studded cast of collaborators for the 23-track album, which includes Summer Walker, Selena Gomez, Lizzo, Janet Jackson, Cash Cobain, Lourdiz, Tyla and Megan Thee Stallion.
“It is a little bit of pressure,” she admitted when it comes to delivering with her album. “People gonna wanna be mean because they feel like, ‘Oh well, we waited seven years for this… You guys want these poppy ‘WAP’ records and I can’t always give you that. You can’t always go with that little trap sound and stuff.”
Cardi delivered another explosive interview in what has been as impressive a rollout as hip-hop has seen this year. Here are our favorite eight moments from Cardi’s Call Her Daddy debut.
