Grammy Award Winning Cardi B shocked a lot of critics with her debut LP Invasion of Privacy. The 2018 project won a Grammy Award for Best Rap Album and has spent 70 weeks on the Billboard 200 chart.

Now, fans are of course patiently waiting for her sophomore set. During a sit down with Big Boy’s Neighborhood, at the Real Street Festival, Cardi was asked about the progress of her next album.

Although she admits she feels the pressure from the success of her last project, she teased a massive record that she’s working on. In a recent interview with Big Boy, she revealed that she’s working on a new album but is also considering dropping a little project ahead of it.

“I’m in single mode, maybe I’m in a ‘put a little project out’ mode, and then I go into album mode,” she said.

Since this interview, and when this part came up, fans have already started speculating that this could be a hint that she could be dropping a mixtape before the album! When Cardi dropped her original two mixtapes, she wasn’t really taken seriously as artist. Most people were writing off as she was still on Love and Hip-Hop and was going to be another one of those girls that tried to shed that Love and Hip-Hop image and that she won’t amount to anything.

Since, those two mixtapes Cardi has became a much bigger household name in the music industry and even won a Grammy from her debut album! It would be nice to see another installment of the Gangsta Music B*tch era and go back to her mixtape bag. Though, there is also a thing of over-saturation, but I think Cardi is one of those few exceptions where people will drop whenever Cardi puts out music. The Gangsta B*tch Music tapes did do surprisingly well for a new artist like her and especially from a female rapper, but a third mixtape would do way better and more than what the first two did now that she’s a more established and experienced artist.

Personally, I think there is something else dropping before the album and she’s just sitting and waiting on it, do I think it’s a mixtape, possibly but again its really just speculation. Whatever this sophomore era ends up being, Cardi definitely has some surprises up her sleeve. There’s also a collab that she wants to do with a Lil’ Kim sample, and wants four females on it! At this point, fans are just patiently waiting and anticipating new solo-Cardi music and the fans can’t wait for it and see what she does next!
