JUST IN: Cardi B Teases Fiery New Track on Instagram With Rihanna Shares Vintage Teaser For Upcoming Short Film With A$AP Rocky

Cardi B’s new album era is seemingly upon us (finally!).

The rapper took to her Instagram Stories to re-share a fan’s post, in which a snippet of an upcoming song is teased. “I ain’t even got dressed / Any L that I took come after YS / Oh man, oh man, oh man, oh man,” she declares on the track.

The teasers comes just a week after Cardi’s estranged husband Offset took to his own Stories to encourage the “Bodak Yellow” rapper to drop her new music.

In the video, the Migos star is seen bobbing his head and loving the music with a satisfied stank face on, and since the video had no audio, viewers were left to their imagination in interpreting the caption. “Stop being scary and drop the album” it read, along with “s–t goes crazy [fire emoji],” he wrote.

BREAKING: Cardi B Break Social Media Silence By Updates Her Profile Aim Of Release New Album

A new Cardi album would mark her first since 2018’s Invasion of Privacy. The album spawned two No. 1 Billboard Hot 100 singles, the diamond-certified “Bodak Yellow” and “I Like It.” She also won the Grammy for best rap album for Invasion of Privacy, topping Pusha T, Mac Miller, Travis Scott and Nipsey Hussle.

Back in August, Cardi promised that she was not going to release any more collaborations until she dropped her next solo single. Of course, her hit collaboration with Megan Thee Stallion, “Bongos,” dropped a month later, but Cardi insisted that she’s focused on her sophomore project.

“I’m going to put out my next solo single. Right now, I’m working on the cover art and ideas for the next record because it’s definitely coming up,” she said at the time. “Everyone always tells me I should put the record out now. They did when I released ‘WAP’ [with Megan Thee Stallion] and when I released ‘Up,’ but I always let them know I’m not going to wait long after all these singles. So stay tuned because it’s coming out very soon.”

Rihanna Shares Vintage Teaser For Upcoming Short Film With A$AP Rocky

Rihanna is trying her hand at acting alongside her partner, A$AP Rocky. The star announced she is releasing a short film featuring the rapper this Wednesday.

She shared a teaser clip from the project on Instagram, captioning it, “Born To Steal: Yours, Mine, Ours. short film with @asaprocky premiering on @fentyskin + @fentybeauty’s youtube tomorrow at 10am PT.”

While the film has the appearance of a music video, Rihanna has hinted it is more beauty-focused. Both of her Fenty Skin and Fenty Beauty brands are tagged, and she also posted the Instagram with Sephora, which sells her lines.

For those hoping for new Rihanna music, there is a good chance that is coming this year, too. Rihanna spoke to British Vogue last year about how she was hoping to release an album in 2023. “I want it to be this year,” she said then. “Like, honestly, it’d be ridiculous if it’s not this year. But I just want to have fun. I just want to make music and make videos.”

She also addressed her high standards for her work, acknowledging her perfectionist tendencies might be getting in the way. “I realized that if I keep waiting until this feels right and perfect and better, maybe it’s going to keep taking forever and maybe it’ll never come out and no, I’m not down to that,” she said. “So I want to play. And by play, I mean I have my ideas in my head, but I can’t say them out loud yet.”

Rocky then gave fans a promising update on Rihanna’s album progress in 2024. He was asked about her new album after posing with a fan last month. He responded, “She’s working on it.”
