Album Review: Am I the Drama? – Cardi B

Cardi B’s long-awaited sophomore album, Am I the Drama?, finally delivers the full project fans have been anticipating since Invasion of Privacy. Across 23 tracks, Cardi leans into everything that made her a star: sharp disses, unfiltered bravado, and the kind of quotable bars that fuel conversation.

The album thrives on conflict and confidence — tracks like “Pretty & Petty” show her at her fiercest, while features from artists like Selena Gomez and Megan Thee Stallion bring fresh dynamics. Still, there are moments of vulnerability, particularly on songs reflecting on her relationship struggles, adding balance to the intensity.

At times, the project feels overstuffed, with a handful of songs that could have been trimmed. The constant high drama can also wear thin, but Cardi’s personality and delivery keep the album engaging. It’s messy, bold, and unpredictable — but that’s exactly the point.

Am I the Drama? isn’t flawless, but it’s a fiery, ambitious return that reaffirms Cardi B’s place as one of rap’s most magnetic voices.
