Cardi B’s new album is racking up some major wins.

Cardi B is set to score another major milestone with her new album AM I THE DRAMA?. According to early projections from HITSDD, the album is expected to debut at #1 on the Billboard 200 chart with 125,000 to 150,000 first-week units.

If these numbers hold, it will be Cardi B’s second consecutive #1 album, following her groundbreaking 2018 debut Invasion of Privacy. The strong start reflects not only her devoted fan base but also the buzz generated by standout tracks like “Dead,” “Bodega Baddie,” and “Magnet,” which have already gained heavy streaming traction.

The album’s early success adds to a landmark release week. AM I THE DRAMA? opened with 14.7 million first-day Spotify streams, ranking among the biggest female rap debuts in platform history and further fueling anticipation for the official Billboard tally.

Cardi B’s ability to dominate streaming services and chart metrics underscores her staying power in the rap world. If projections prove accurate, AM I THE DRAMA? will cement her status as one of today’s most consistent and influential hip-hop stars.
