WELCOME TO CARDIS

CARDI B is many things! A Grammy-winning rapper, a cultural disruptor and a walking meme machine.

But if last week taught us anything, it’s that she’s also a master of turning life’s chaos into iconic moments.

On Tuesday, September 2, Cardi B was officially cleared of a civil lawsuit brought by former security guard Emani Ellis.  

The lawsuit was based on claims of wrongful termination and emotional distress, which Cardi B vehemently denied.

In a statement released shortly after the verdict, she expressed relief and gratitude, saying that the truth had finally prevailed. She said that a legal win should’ve been the headline of the week.

But in true Cardi B fashion, she refused to let the moment be just about paperwork and courtrooms.

Instead, she hit the streets of New York to sell copies of her own album barefoot, incense burning, Bob Marley blasting.

Cardi B’s sophomore album, "Am I the Drama?", drops Friday, September 19. While most A-list stars lean on flashy rollouts, she’s taking a refreshingly old-school approach. 

Cardi B set up shop on a Manhattan sidewalk, laying out copies of her album on a black sheet like a street vendor.

The album promises to be as bold and engaging as she is, with anticipated tracks like "Drama Queen" and "No Filter" already stirring buzz.

“My label said I gotta get out in these streets and sell this album,” she joked on Instagram.

Wearing a Rastafarian cap and a black "While We Wait" Kehlani hoodie, she waved bundles of incense, shouting out bargain prices like she was working a flea market stall: “$9.99! You got $50 right here. $20! $9.99 for the new ones!”

In the clip, Cardi B pointed to different editions of the new album, including the hilarious “Courtroom Edition", inspired by her recent trial.
