~ Thoughts, feelings & what she shared

From her interview on CBS Mornings with Gayle King, Cardi opened up about balancing everything — pregnancy, new music, public scrutiny — and how Stefon Diggs is supporting her. 

Some of her key reflections:

GAYLE KING

• She said she feels “excited,” “happy,” “in a good space,” and “very strong” despite juggling her pregnancy and her busy career roll-out. 

• She and Diggs share similar drive/ambition; she feels supported and safe with him. 

• She admitted that at one point (just a couple of weeks prior) she had a panic attack over the pressures of the album rollout and public reactions. Diggs was there for her in that moment, helping her feel “safe and confident.” 

• She said she kept the pregnancy private initially in part to “close some deals first,” get a few things in order, and make sure things were stable. She also wanted some scans and reassurance of her baby’s health before going public. 

• She joked with fans, saying, “Now y’all could buy my album so I can buy Pampers and diapers and all that type of stuff … now go support my album, ’cause I’m a mother of four now!”

~ Selected Quotes from the Interview

• “I feel like I’m in a good space. I feel very strong. I feel very powerful that I’m doing all this work. But I’m doing all this work while I’m creating a baby, me and my man, we’re very supportive of each other.”

• “He just makes me feel safe and very confident and very strong.” 

• 
  “Like, two weeks ago I was literally having a panic attack. I was, like, crying and crying and crying, just because I was just getting really nervous with you know, the whole album rollout … People were coming at me very hard. You know, sometimes people love you, people hate you. And people was just saying very mean things about me.” 

• “Can I just say it on my own time? Like, I'm not hiding ... On my time, on my own terms. Let me close some deals first, you know what I'm saying? Let me close some deals first.”

• “And it’s like, you don't really want to say right away that you're pregnant. It's like, 'Let me see a couple of more sonograms. Let my baby be healthy.'” 

• “One time he just told me, ‘Let me heal you. Give me a chance for me to heal you.’” 

• “Now y’all could buy my album so I can buy Pampers and diapers and all that type of stuff. I told you. Now go support my album, ’cause I’m a mother of four now.” 

• About the album itself, she said: “I feel like it touch every little thing that I want to touch. And I just feel like it’s something that is not out there right now.” 

• ~ New album Am I the Drama?
  

  • Am I the Drama? is her next studio album, set for release on September 19, 2025. 

  • She said the album feels “complete” to her, hitting all the things she wants to explore artistically, touching on what she believes isn’t “out there right now.”

    ~ Themes & What Cardi Has Said

    • The title Am I the Drama? reflects how Cardi B is engaging with her persona, reputation, and the frequent scrutiny she’s under. She has talked about how “drama” tends to follow someone with a loud, outspoken personality like hers.

    • She says the album feels “complete” — it hits on many things she wanted to touch on, and she feels there’s nothing quite like it out there right now. 

    • Part of her motivation came from real-life pressure: criticism, expectations from fans and media, balancing personal life, pregnancy, etc. She’s addressed that in interviews, talking about how sometimes the criticism can hurt, how people “rip things apart,” and yet she wants to share her art anyway.

    • Alongside the album announcement, Cardi’s talking about other big things happening in her life — her pregnancy with Stefon Diggs, preparing for motherhood, and starting the Little Miss Drama Tour in early 2026. These personal elements seem tightly interwoven into the album’s rollout. 

    • She’s also leaning into visuals: album art, trailers, aesthetic of the visuals seem to have motifs connected to “drama” — metaphorical and literal.
