Cardi B is hitting the pavement to promote her sophomore album ‘Am I the Drama?”
The Grammy award-winning hip-hop singer will be hosting various meet-and-greets across the country, and one of them lands right here in Southern California.
The music store, Fingerprints in Long Beach, California, will host a meet and greet and photo opportunity for fans on Sept. 25.
“If you want to attend this very special event, place your preorder for ‘Am I The Drama?’ on CD at our website now. Once ordered, the name on the order will be added to our guest list automatically. You may purchase up to 4 CDs if you want to bring friends/children. No need to pay for shipping, just select ‘pickup’ as your shipping option and we will have the CDs for you at the event,” Fingerprints explained on its website.
“Please note that Cardi B will not be signing; this is for a meet and photo op only. Space is limited, but if you get your order in, you will be guaranteed a spot on the guest list.”
The music store said that they are hoping to have vinyl copies of the album available at the time of the event as well. However, they’re only taking CD preorders right now, just in case the vinyls don’t arrive in time.
“If we can get vinyl, you may upgrade your CD order to LP at the event by simply paying the difference,” the store said.
This is the “Bodak Yellow” singer’s first album in seven years. Her debut album, “Invasion of Privacy,” was released in 2018 and was the best-selling female rap album of the 2010s, according to the National Academy of Recording Arts & Sciences, Inc. It has also been certified quadruple platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America.
The album earned her the Grammy Award for Best Rap Album as a solo artist, making her the first female rapper to do so.
Prior to releasing her first album, she had released various mixtapes and singles. She’s also released plenty of singles since 2018, with fans pleading with her to release an entire album.
“Am I the Drama?” is out on Sept. 19.
