April 5th, the day before Cardi B’s debut album dropped she sat down with Ebro Darden from New York’s Hot 97 to discuss the behind the scenes coverage of the making of her album Invasion of Privacy.
Listen to the interview here:
The 30-minute long interview discusses how all the tracks on the album were produced, created and born into what they are today. She also addresses the rumors surrounding her by stating that everything on the internet is made up- isn’t it always?
She sits and talks about her past and opens up about how some tracks were hard to put on the record because they were so personal. Tracks like “Get up 10” get really vulnerable but she felt like she had to tell her story since so many people have doubted her and have hated her for just being herself. People don’t realize that she is not just the face that sung “Bodak Yellow,” she is a person who has worked her whole life to get where she is now and the road was rough. This interview really does show that side of her and it was done really well.
She might have been holding back her personality for this interview, but it was nice to see her taking it seriously.
After listening to the album in full, you can really see how thankful Cardi is for everyone who was featured on the record. She stated that everyone was so helpful even with their extremely busy schedules, and not only were those artists willing to be featured on the tracks, they did it perfectly. Not every album that comes out is pure gold.
So watch the interview to get inside information on Invasion of Privacy
