Cardi B continues to prove her star power. Her new album AM I THE DRAMA? racked up an impressive 14.7 million streams on Spotify in its first 24 hours, earning the tenth biggest debut of 2025 for a rap album. It’s a clear sign that fans were eager to hear what the Bronx superstar had in store.

Several tracks quickly emerged as favorites among listeners. Standouts like “Dead” featuring Summer Walker, “Bodega Baddie,” “Pretty & Petty,” “Hello,” and “Magnet” led the streaming surge, each showcasing Cardi’s signature mix of confidence, sharp wit, and club-ready energy.
