*Cardi B has responded to being called a flop because she hasn’t dropped any new music all year.
Aside from releasing “WAP” with Megan Thee Stallion, Cardi appears to spend more time entertaining her followers on social media, rather than giving fans what they really want. A new album.
During a conversation with SiriusXM radio on Wednesday, the rapper slammed rumors that her label is over her and that’s the reason why she hasn’t put out more than one track all year.
“Throughout this whole time people were making rumors like, ‘Oh she’s having problems with her label,’ ‘Her label is shelving her,’ ‘Her label is tired of her and they’re getting more female talent,'” she said. “It’s like, no, they never tired of me. Labels, they want you to put music out. That’s what they love. They want you to put music out all the time, all the time.”

She went on to address the “flop” label that’s being hurled at her.
“There are male artists who will go two years without putting out a song and [the fans] don’t be like, ‘oh, you’re irrelevant, it’s over for you,'” Cardi explained. “Me, I didn’t put out songs for nine months and it’s like, ‘oh, she’s irrelevant, she’s over, she’s a flop, we told you that’. And I’m like, yo! That type of shit started to get to me but it’s like, I’m not gonna let that shit get to me to the point that I’m going to put out a song that I’m not really in love with.”
