“Seven years and the time has come. Seven years of love, life and loss. Seven years I gave them grace, but now, I give them hell. I learned power is not given, it’s taken,” she says in a voiceover accompanying the video. “I’m shedding feathers and no more tears. I’m not back, I’m beyond. I’m not your villain, I’m your tyrant. The time is here. The time is now.”
According to Variety, Cardi B premiered “Outside,” a new track during a performance at Cannes Lions, a five-day International Festival of Creativity in Cannes, France, last week. The song includes a dig at ex-husband Offset and name-drops her new beau New England Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs.
Cardi also performed hits songs from eras past, including “Bongos,” “Up,” “Money,” “Bodak Yellow,” “I Like It,” and “Wap” in Cannes, per Variety.
“Outside,” “Up,” and “WAP” featuring Megan Thee Stallion are three of the twenty-three songs listed on the album’s “tracklist preview” on Spotify.
The announcement comes nearly a decade after the release of her debut album “Invasion of Privacy,” which included hits like “Bodak Yellow” and “I Like It.”
The 32-year-old musician, born Belcalis Marlenis Almánzar, became the first solo female rapper to win a Grammy Award for best rap album in 2019.
