Cardi B Unveils Cover Art And Release Date For Highly Anticipated Sophomore Album
The wait for Cardi B's long-awaited second album is almost over after the Grammy-winning emcee announced the LP's title, cover art, and release date on Monday (June 23).
Bardi's sophomore album, Am I the Drama?, is slated for release on Sept. 19.
The day prior, the rapper teased the announcement on Instagram.
'Seven years and the time has come. Seven years of love, light and loss,' Cardi stated in the visualizer. 'Seven years I gave them grace, but now I give them hell. I learned power's not given; it's taken. I'm shedding feathers and no more tears. I'm not back; I'm beyond. I'm not your villain; I'm your karma. The time is here. The time is now.'
The 23-track LP will include previously released hits, 'WAP,' and 'Up' as well as Cardi's latest drop, 'Outside.'
After the rapstress already blamed the extensive delay on her collaborators, SZA quipped in the comments of the album announcement, 'Lemme send this verse chile.'
Back in May, a frustrated Cardi said on social media, 'I really need these f**king features and it's like I'm not really trying to press or go crazy on these artists because I love them down. But it's like come on now! I need that! […] I really need y'all and I need y'all to hurry up and I love y'all. I feel like nobody want to miss being on this album.'
Her debut LP, Invasion Of Privacy, produced two Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 hits and a Grammy for Best Rap Album. Every track is also at least certified platinum by the RIAA.

Eagles' Saquon Barkley Reveals Religious Journey
Eagles' Saquon Barkley Reveals Religious Journey originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Added to his almost supernatural physical talents and the savvy free-agent signing with the Philadelphia Eagles last offseason, Saquon Barkley is crediting another secret weapon for his epic 2024 season: Advertisement Religion. In a new interview with golf social media influencer Grant Horvat, Barkley opened up about his newfound faith and credited it with helping him have one of the best seasons by a running back in NFL history. "I just became a Christian not too long ago," Barkley said. "I don't think it's a coincidence that the best year I had in my career, I found my faith. It gives me some clarity in life." Barkley rushed for 2,005 yards last season and helped the Eagles win the Super Bowl in a 40-22 romp over the Kansas City Chiefs in February. How a higher power works remains one of life's great mysteries. But it works for Barkley. Advertisement Barkley's religious journey is not an overnight success. At Super Bowl LIX he talked about diving into the Bible. "I'm not going to sit here and tell you that I know the Bible, like, in and out," Barkley said. "It's something I'm learning, I'm challenging myself to get better at with my family and my friends. I'm just growing, and I think that's the beautiful thing about it, and I think that's what religion and faith is, is having a relationship with God and understanding who Jesus is, and that's what I've been trying to do this year. I'm going to continue to try to get better at it." Last month, the 28-year-old landed on the cover for this year's edition of the uber-popular 'Madden' video game. Barkley was also a featured speaker at 'Life Surge: Champions of Faith,' a religious financial seminar at Philadelphia's 21,000-seat Wells Fargo Center.

Mariska Hargitay Revealed Her Sister's Lasting First Reaction to Her Documentary, 'My Mom Jayne'
Longtime Law & Order: SVU star Mariska Hargitay is letting fans see a whole new side of her in her new documentary, My Mom Jayne. The movie, which also marks Hargitay's feature film directorial debut, follows the actress as she remembers her late mother, Hollywood bombshell Jayne Mansfield, and uncovers secrets of her family along the way. Among the revelations in the movie, as revealed by early reviewers at the 2025 Cannes Film Festival, is that Hargitay's dad, Mickey Hargitay, who passed away in 2006, isn't her biological father. More from SheKnows Mariska Hargitay & Peter Hermann Colorfully Coordinated With Their 3 Kids in a Super-Rare Family Outing In a chat with Entertainment Tonight at the Tribeca Film Festival premiere of the doc, Hargitay talked about how her family reacted to the big reveal. 'I showed my family the film and when I did, we all held each other for an hour [and] 45 [minutes], and we didn't let go,' she remembered. 'And they were so happy.' As a reminder, Hargitay has five siblings: brothers Mickey Jr., Zoltán, and Tony, and sister Jayne Marie. Hargitay then revealed what her sister said after their embrace. 'My sister said, 'I feel like we are four people, with one beating heart,'' she remembered. 'And if no one ever saw the movie, it felt like my job was done,' Hargitay reflected, getting teary-eyed.

'I feel free and I feel integrated and I feel like I have a beautiful movie that I can't wait to share,' she said. As a reminder, Mansfield tragically passed away on June 29, 1967, in Biloxi, Mississippi, in a car crash. At the time, Hargitay was only three years old.
