In 2018, Cardi B released her super hit debut album Invasion of Privacy…. In fact, one still feels the album’s tremors. This Grammy-winning effort features such hits as Bodak Yellow and I Like It, which created controversies that keep haunting the present in context with Cardi and her status in hip-hop.

The mixed reactions from the fans poured over social media, from praise by some as a “flawless debut” to others throwing in the opposite, calling it “fraudulent.”
One ecstatic fan commented, “A Grammy award-winning, record-breaking and game-changing album. Iconic debut era.” A critic clamped back, “Most fraudulent album in history,” which ignited an inferno.
The Seventh anniversary seemed as though it were the last occasion for Cardi to give any other excuse for postponing her new album. One commenter said: “7 Years and still no follow up… Not even a tape or EP” Whereas another funny comment read: “Invasion of privacy… and her last album.”
The way it went on further for fire on the statement, “NICKI’S CAREER WAS ENDED”- tweeted by Nicki Minaj stans-would go on further to flag those who showed evidence that Invasion had actually bested some of Nicki’s work.
The drama cranked up a notch more when a user dragged Taylor Swift into messiness by saying Cardi’s album is “better than Taylor shift.”
What wildness haven’t you heard? If you’ve been doubting a couple of songs like Ring and Be Careful, they have stood the test of time over the years from the album. “Time flies! That album was an absolute banger,” commented one lost-in-time listener.

While Cardi teases the world with CB2 but keeps fans dry out in the hot sun waiting, the big question remains: Will Cardi rise back to power, or will Invasion of Privacy be forever her crowning jewel? Only time, and maybe another viral Twitter war, will tell.
