Cardi B has been one of the best new artists of 2017. Her hit “Bodak Yellow” sent her to instant stardom. After the song, she began being featured on other songs including “MotorSport” featuring the Migos and Nicki Minaj. She started associating herself with the big players in the industry and made a name for herself. She released “Bartier Cardi” which was a great song that showed that she wasn’t just a one-hit wonder. She was one of the most unexpected but needed artists of 2017. So what can we expect from her debut album? Well, we were expecting more than this.
Cardi B’s album Invasion of Privacy will be dropping this Friday, April 6th, 2018. She has teased the album with some song releases and the latest is “Drip” featuring the Migos. It was released last night and of course, we went to listen to it to see if she could give us more than the letdown, “Be Careful.”
Listen to “Drip” here:
The cover art looks dope, but it doesn’t make up for the pure ridiculousness of this song. How did the Migos- the biggest breakout stars of 2016 and 2017- make a song that sounds so cringe-worthy? Maybe Offset is really pissed off at Cardi for “Be Careful”- I would be too. The song starts off with the chorus that goes, “came through dripping- DRIP DRIP” and then the Migos say “ICE” in the background track. It seems like it was written in ten minutes in the back of a car. The laziness really does shine through. Also, the theme of diamonds on her wrist has been very overplayed. The highlight of this song is Cardi’s verse which seems to be a recurring theme on her tracks. Her verses are good but the songs seem to be poorly executed. She really should have spent more time working on this album because it seems to be thrown together at the last second. The Migos then recycle their typical verses and the song ends- finally.
Overall, I guess we will all have to make our final judgments when the album is released, but it doesn’t seem promising.
I can’t wait till Invasion of Privacy comes out .First is a big relieve ,second i want people to see different sides of me and I’m just really proud of the work that was put in this album❤️ — iamcardib (@iamcardib) April 3, 2018
