Cardi’s New Year’s resolution is to not take anymore static from trash-talkers.
Cardi then got specific about the level of reset she’s planning. “I’m hitting the f–king reset button. I’m whipping everybody’s ass with a we belt,” she warned. “I’m sick of f–king everybody. I’m telling you, next year I’m not taking f–king nothing.” While Cardi did not specify who her ire was aimed towards, she said a “whole bunch” of stuff happened to her this year that threw her 2024 into chaos.
After having all her music plans in order, including working on music videos and getting unspecified surgery at the beginning of 2024, Cardi said, “God was like, ‘not so fast. I’m sending you a f–king baby!’” To be clear, Cardi gushed over the baby daughter who was born in early September, just weeks after the rapper filed for divorce from Migos MC Offset — with whom she has two other children. Cardi called her “so f–kin beautiful… and she’s my bestie. If I could I would take her to the club with me because she’s my bestie. I wanna be with her all day.”
Cardi spent much of 2024 teasing her long-awaited sophomore album, including in another recent Instagram livestream in which she told fans she’s “wilding out lately” but wants to “get [her] f–-king life together… I have so much things coming next year,” she said. “I know next year is gonna be my f–-king year.” Among the items on her 2025 to-do list are: releasing her as-yet-untitled follow-up to 2018’s Billboard 200-topping debut album Invasion of Privacy, as well as, hopefully, getting “a little boyfriend.”
In October, Cardi told fans that her second full-length studio album was “coming really, really soon,” confirming that she was in the studio working on it.
