Cardi B seems to be kicking off her album rollout into full gear with the new single, “Like What (Freestyle).” Sure, she had already dropped “Bongos” with Megan Thee Stallion, but this solo return is really what has fans prepped for something big on the way.

Moreover, the Bronx rapper recently took to Instagram to share a desktop filled to the brim with material she worked on in January of 2023, plus a preview of a DAW arrangement of another track. Not only that, but she confirmed once again that her new album, her sophomore effort and her first in about six years, is arriving this year.

“Look at how long I had this f***ing record for,” Cardi B began her IG video hyping her next move up for fans. “January 27, twenty-twenty-f***ing-three. I was working on this s**t at 5AM, you know I’m a night owl.

I promise y’all this year, I’m not letting my anxiety, I’m not letting what haters say, I’m not letting what fans say… If I do a song, I’ma just f***ing drop it. Well, I got no choice, ’cause I’m dropping my album this year, so… Stay tuned for the announcement, but don’t play with me! Don’t play with me! Look how I sound on it. ‘Cause I know I got a thick accent. *plays ‘Like What (Freestyle)’*.”

Cardi B Lets Go Of Her Anxiety, Haters & Even Fans While Promoting New Album

What’s more is that this new rollout also involves some drama and speculation (maybe planned, maybe not) around Cardi B’s romantic life. As you probably know, she and her on-and-off-again husband Offset seem to be going through a rough -– or at the very least difficult -– patch right now.

But given that the former Migo directed the 31-year-old’s visual for “Like What (Freestyle),” it seems like their professional working relationship is smooth as butter. We’ll just have to wait and see if there’s anything deeper here.

Meanwhile, this obviously brought up all the femcee beef that rages online between Nicki Minaj’s Barbz, the Bardi Gang, and more. While that’s a pesky fly buzzing around this new album, we can’t wait to let the windows down and soak it in when it lands. Whoever’s side you’re on, can’t we all just demand some good music and call it a day? Regardless, stick around on HNHH for the latest news and updates on Cardi B.

Rihanna returning to stage for $6M performance for heir of India’s richest man

Rihanna has netted a reported £5 million for performing at the pre-wedding party for the son of India’s richest man and 1,200 guests.

Billionaire Mukesh Ambani is hosting the three day event at a hotel in the western city of Jamnagar which will cost a total £120 million.

A video shows Rihanna performing her hit Bitch Better Have My Money alongside a lavish display of dancers and lights. She has previously been seen sightseeing with her partner, the US rapper ASAP Rocky.

She reportedly performed 19 songs in a 90 minute set.

There could be even bigger celebrations in July when Anant Ambani marries Radhika Merchant. His dad previously paid Beyonce a reported £5 million to perform in 2018 when his daughter Isha got married.

It is a significant undertaking but will not make too much of a dent in the finances of Mukesh Ambani, who is worth a reported £90 billion.

Asia’s richest man amassed his fortune through his Reliance Industries empire, a conglomerate of energy, gas and telecommunications businesses.

His connections and wealth make his parties a big deal and others to attend include Donald Trump’s daughter Ivanka, Facebook boss Mark Zuckerberg and former Canadian prime minister Stephen Harper.

Despite having not released an album since 2016, Rihanna is not short of money – being one of the world’s richest women.

She was most recently seen at a Dior show in Paris but has appeared sparingly since having her second child.

Photos showed the pair meeting Jamnagar locals at a huge meal along lengthy tables.
