Obviously if she dropped an album this year, it would easily be top 5 streamed this year. But does she NEED to? Can she just keep hopping on other people's songs and stay relevant? Or for her legacy, she needs something this year?

I'm not checking for it either way. She's more famous for being a entertainer at this point. What were her songs? Kodak yellow n the 1 with J Calvin n bad bunny?
Her recent hits was a song with Glorilla and now Latto.

If she doesn't put one out soon she'll start getting lapped by the new wave of thot rappers

She should work on putting one out, align with a few up and comers and then ride out the feature wave

The only downside is that if the album is trash, people gonna start writing her off, so she definitely gotta come with either some heat or a guaranteed crossover money maker that does numbers

Amusing.

Bodak Yello (the person) is the very definition of a manufactured product.

Do rappers have pride in their #barz nowadays? I never thought so but I'm wondering if you mean:

She thinks she dope and she wants to cement her legacy vis a vis SKILLS.

I mean. Does she write? Are her flows her invention or a copy of other popular cadences?

Her performance is her own. But it's kinda like Dre or Diddy. Whatever props they get as rappers goes to the obvious ghost writer.

Answer: nah. Neither.

Also: why not. Go brazy. Drop three albums this year. Get $$$

Young people don’t give a fukk about “albums” it’s just about songs …her team understands this …it would be nice for a moment but albums come and go nowadays she’s had several hits since her last album and hasn’t dropped any in relevance…why do you think that is?

Yes. I don’t see how it’s too much to ask. Especially considering she’s doing features. Can’t give her fans a 15 song album? She’s big enough to where she doesn’t need a rollout or tour.

invasion of privacy was a great album. but she dont need to put nothing out
Invasion Of Privacy was 5 summers ago...
WAP was 3 summers ago

The pandemic is over now too.


You're telling me that her and Offset cant make a Husband and Wife album at least.

Say what u want about Nicki but she didnt wait more than 5 years to drop a another album.

Cardi has access to writers and beats plus she's likable and industry folks fucc with her, she aint gonna be doin us like Lauryn Hill.

She is already etched in stone...

The "old guard" using "checkpoints" from 20 years ago to judge what's happening now..

It's a new music business with different rules.

Social media allows her to stay relevant in a variety of ways..

The music is a vehicle to whatever lane she wants to enter
