Cardi B Reveals Album Cover (& Release Date) & I Feel Like I’ve Been Transported To The ’80s

The reigning princess of rap has given us a true gift. That’s right, Cardi B has posted the album artwork for her debut album on Instagram.

Her album, Invasion of Privacy, is slated for release next week, April 6th—so soon! The cover features a very ’80s-inspired shot where she is seen wearing checkerboard print and bold sunglasses, and it is absolutely perfect for the rap star. It’s bold and in your face, just the way she is, and gives you an idea of exactly what you can expect.

After having what many perceive as a meteoric rise in 2017 with “Bodak Yellow,” her debut record is sure to be a great work of hip-hop perfection. As Cosmopolitan points out, she has since continued skyrocketing to success, being featured on Bruno Mars’ “Finesse (Remix),” and performing it with him at the Grammys where she was nominated for two awards, and winning the iHeartRadio Music Award for Best New Artist in Hip-Hop. As she prepares to launch her first studio album, Cardi is also set to make her Saturday Night Live debut along Black Panther’s Chadwick Boseman on April 7th.

2018 is looking just as good as 2017 for Ms. Cardi, if not better!
