Cardi B’s “Am I The Drama?” Shatters Records, Dominates Charts

Cardi B has once again proven her undeniable reign in the music industry. Her highly anticipated sophomore album, “Am I The Drama?”, has not only topped the charts but has also made history in less than a week, solidifying her status as one of the most influential artists of our time.

Making History on the Billboard 200

“Am I The Drama?” debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200, making Cardi B the first female rapper ever to have her first two albums open at the top spot. This project also achieved the biggest week for an R&B/hip-hop album by a female artist in 2025, marking a significant cultural moment.

Platinum in Under 24 Hours: A New Benchmark

Beyond chart success, “Am I The Drama?” achieved RIAA Platinum certification in under 24 hours, selling over 1 million units. This record-breaking feat was supported by an innovative partnership with Walmart, which utilized drones for physical album deliveries. This initiative earned Cardi two Guinness World Records: “Most deliveries by UAV drones in one hour” and “Most signed album copies sold in under 8 hours.”

Fan-First Innovation with Multiple Editions

True to her commitment to fans, Cardi released several album versions. The Bonus Edition and ErrTime Edition feature new tracks like “Don’t Do Too Much” and the Latto-assisted remix of “ErrTime.” For her most dedicated supporters, the exclusive Bardi Gang Edition, featuring “Dear Bardi Gang,” was available on her website for one day only.

Unstoppable Streaming Dominance

Cardi B also set Apple Music ablaze. “Am I The Drama?” debuted at #1 and maintained that position for its entire first week on both Apple Music and iTunes. Three tracks—”Dead” (ft. Summer Walker), “Magnet,” and “Safe” (ft. Kehlani)—all reached #1 on the Apple Music Top Songs Chart during release week, bringing her total to 15 #1 hits on Apple Music, an unprecedented achievement for a female artist.

A Star-Studded Follow-Up

Following her GRAMMY-winning debut “Invasion of Privacy,” “Am I The Drama?” boasts an impressive lineup of collaborators, including Cash Cobain, Janet Jackson, Kehlani, Lizzo, Megan Thee Stallion, Selena Gomez, Summer Walker, and Tyla. The visually stunning video for “Safe,” featuring Kehlani and directed by Arrad Rahgoshay, further amplified the album’s cultural impact.
