Cardi B – Imaginary Playerz: Award-winning, multi-diamond-selling superstar Cardi B has officially unleashed her highly anticipated new single “Imaginary Playerz”, the second release from her upcoming sophomore album Am I The Drama?, set to arrive worldwide on September 19th. Produced by DJ SwanQo, Sean Island, and OctaneThisThatGas, the single is paired with a bold and stylish music video co-directed by Cardi herself alongside Patience Foster, showcasing her signature blend of energy, confidence, and unapologetic flair.
To mark the release, Cardi B is hosting a special Apple Music Radio takeover live from the brand-new Los Angeles studio, where she’ll deliver a one-hour block of hand-curated programming. In true Cardi fashion, she has also sold out limited-edition merch box sets in record time, including a buzzworthy WWE collaboration that ties into her recent ventures.
This single follows a massive summer for Cardi B. After her headline-making WWE hosting debut at SummerSlam on August 2nd, the rapper previewed tracks from her forthcoming album, fueling even more excitement among fans. Her first single from the project, “Outside”, made an immediate impact by debuting in the Top 10 on the Billboard Hot 100, marking her 13th career Top 10 hit. The track also hit #1 on Apple Music during its release weekend, giving Cardi her first chart-topper on the platform since the multi-platinum smash “Up.”
Cardi has continued to dominate throughout 2024 with the release of “Enough (Miami)” and her viral freestyle “Like What”, following the success of her collaboration with Megan Thee Stallion on “Bongos.” Of course, her history-making hit “WAP” with Megan in 2020 remains a cultural milestone, smashing records across Apple Music and Billboard while collecting awards and billions of streams.
With “Imaginary Playerz” leading the way and Am I The Drama? on the horizon, Cardi B shows no signs of slowing down. Her reign as one of the most influential figures in hip hop and pop culture is set to continue, proving once again why she remains in a league of her own.
