Cardi B - "Am I The DRAMA?" (album reaction/review)

Cardi B - "Am I The DRAMA?" (album reaction/review)

Comments

Top 5: Salute - she flowed very well and was on beat. She sounded like migos on here. This my shit Hello - love the pre chorus - "I'm turned up at the party. I'm geekin out my body" Pretty and Petty - She ate with the Bia diss. You could tell she had fun on this song. And I love Bia lol Errtime - Fire. Definitely Jeezy vibes just like Hello Killin You Hoes - Great closing track. Not counting Wap and Up. She was on beat well and loved the bars Other favorites are Magnet and Trophies. Also loved Pick it up. Chorus was catchy. I loved Better than you, it was another favorite but Cash Cobain completely ruined it The songs I didn't like were Bodega Baddie and Check Please. She sounded weird on Check please. She wasn't on beat or anything and it fell flat. Bodega Baddie should've been an interlude or something idk lol Love Summer Walker but didn't like her as a feature on Dead. She was barely on the song. Cardi might as well have been on the song by herself. But the better feature was Shower Tears. Loved Summer on that song.

Kayso

Yess these features did nun only a few songs. Album trash. But I love Cardi

Jack Jackson

U right here flow is wrong. She tried to do invasion of privacy again but she did to much with no relevance

Jack Jackson

Damn Dee said just rap!! She don’t wanna hear your life story 😂

Krystal G Hardy

Dee this is so random, but rn cardi, Nicki, the barbs and carbs are all beefing on twitter😭😭 and it’s so funny cause literally the other day I was telling someone I was like “truth be told the beef is rlly between the carbs and the barbs I feel like Nicki and cardi over it” but no cardi just called her cocaine Barbie and the barbs posting crows dying I’m in tears😂😂😂😭😭

Cameron Woods

Somebody said Lizzo came on singing like Trollz LMAOO

Hugo

Why would she sample kehlani ft kehlani….

Hugo

Idk Armon said it best. She just can’t Rap. She raps like a sexxy redd / ice spice too me, shes just placed in higher catergories

Hugo

I kept 12 songs on this album it was pretty decent. I didn't really like bodega baddie at first and then it kind of grew on me lol. My favorites were dead, pretty and petty, magnet, and errtime ( mostly for the drama) she cooked BIA and JT. I didn't really care for the slower songs, I get she wanted to address her relationship with offset but I didn't really keep any, they kinda bored me. Also Principal was a scam😂, why would she say Janet Jackson was on the song like it was a new feature

Justine

Bodega was definitely overwhelming for me 😭. Had to cut it off.

Marcus

"If you sing imma throw my laptop" 😭😭😭 Dee you Funny AF

Adam Boudarga

Dee, you're hilarious😭I just knew you were going to download Nice Guy after hearing the whole song

Eliii🖤

Some of her songs are soooo gutterbutt like pure stank fcking under the stairwell in highschool nasty

Kaaliyah Seals

so.. she just released a new version with money, press, please me with bruno, bongos, wap, up, enough and like what mind you most of these songs are 5-7 years old. now they saying her album is 5x platinum 💀💀💀 atp she has enough singles to make another album.

Bray

😭

Dee Shanell

Is anyone gonna admit lizzo’s mixtape goes harder than this album 😂

Alistair

I agree it’s bs

Jackdeel

I think the tracklisting kinda threw the plot of the album off a bit but other than that I think it’s very solid..is it better than invasion of privacy…idk yet but this album was cool Top 5 Magnet On my back Salute Nice Guy Man of your word

Detaurus Hill

She said “I need my flowers so call the flurist” 😭 22:20

Alyssa Mena

No I didn't...I was very clear in stating that I didn't like that Sabrina Carpenter album. There's nothing to update, I don't like it. No point in me keep repeating I don't like something. The only time I'm updating an album I initially disliked is if I have a complete change of heart and end up loving it. That's never happened and I doubt it will lol

Dee Shanell

Damn lol yeah different strokes for different folks!

Dee Shanell

It's always interesting when yall say this, I never feel like this over other people’s opinions lol I bop to songs unashamed no matter what. I still get shit to this day for liking Justin Bieber's "Yummy" but idc. Matter fact, about to listen to it right now 😂

Dee Shanell

🤣

Dee Shanell

Dee you forgot to give update on the last album

Omar_q8

I'm back here for Pretty and Petty af reaction Lmfao

Shanice

On a brighter note, thanks for mentioning Lizzo mixtape had no idea she made one. I like rapping Lizzo too!

Another Story to Tell

On first listen, I only liked 2 songs. 2nd listen, watching your reaction I ended up liking an additional 2 songs. My opinion on Cardi music has always been the same for me since 2016. Raps slow = offbeat. Raps fast = gibberish. I can’t get into it 😫😫😫 Her features always go hard for me but her on an entire song is where my ears tap out.

Another Story to Tell

Hey Dee just got through this album via your reaction only cause I would of never streamed it. Only song I can say I like is Trophies - however it took me two days to listen to this because of how bad most of the album was - she was struggling so bad to catch the beat or flow - like I genuinely think these songs are years old and just put onto her album without any re-recording. Her struggling with the beat and weak bars reminded me of that one video you reacted to of your subscriber reading a poem and it was so bad you burst out laughing 🤣🤣 for me the album is a 3/10 - good effort but I like my rap being about real bars and flow not no simp pick me mess 🤧

Breezey breeze

lmao dee got me second guessing on some of the songs i liked 😂😂

Etoile2004

I’m just mad those old ass songs are contributing to her album sales. Like how ur album go platinum over the weekend due to the numbers that WAP & UP cumulated over 4-5 yrs. That’s some bs!

Lushymuse

Dee!! What do you think about the album after sitting with it. I personally like 18/23. But i do understand why some comments at 6/10 but most female rap albums are less than that so imo i think she did a good job & I do think some of the songs aren’t bad i think it’s just not people’s preference.

Bray

The only singing one I didn’t mind was the Selena one but she wanted to be diverse so bad and that’s the cardi we didn’t grow up to love we love talking shit cardi i even loved wap and up there’s a reason those songs won Grammys but the album was draining the songs u liked is the same,ones I liked i also actually loved (dead ) with summer Walker lmaooo I almost said sza because summer sounded like her also we could’ve done without the offnut one we don’t care for ur cheating husband I feel like she should’ve separated her relationship problems to this body of art because we’re tired hearing about him but I’m here for the diss and I agree she sounded better in her features but you wanna know why I feel why? Because she said that she over thinks a lot and she’s indecisive about her music and in her features she didn’t really had to think much she just did the work and she said when she did invasion of privacy she didn’t really think about it she just dropped music because she had too after her hit single bodak yellow and she also had less pressure back then because she was a new rapper in the industry but now she tries too hard and she’s her biggest critic even though she knows what type of music her fans love I’m a bardi fan but I’m not bias I expected better after waiting so long she should’ve honestly dropped the album after she made up she would’ve probably picked better songs and since her music was the most trending in 2020 that was the perfect time to drop the album she would’ve probably got the best rap album like iof did but she waited too long mind you she said she has like 80 scrapped songs that she did shorty could’ve dropped 2 albums for the past 7 years

Destiny 🇵🇷

I was thinking that too! Bongos is wayyy better than WAP. But WAP was more successful so I’m sure it has something to do with that

Dee Shanell

Fair assessment! I love that yall are reporting your updated ratings 😂 I’m gonna replay it at the gym tomorrow and see how I feel too after a second listen

Dee Shanell

Ok after 2 days of this album being out I can say that it’s a 6/10 for me. I feel like it was too long and why did she have these old ancient songs like WAP and Up on here. 😂😂 I liked some of the songs but overall it was good not great.

Darius Young

i wish she album transitions because a lot of songs felt disconnected and out of order overall magnet hello pretty and petty are my new gym bops I give the album 6.5 out of 10. I don’t know what it is with these rap girls that can’t drop a classic album anymore way too much filler and fat for a steak that’s just not cooked all the way and she did herself a service by not including bongos and like what

ra

Covid songs is hilarious. Sounds like the songs are infected 😂

Dee Shanell

The same way anybody likes or dislikes anything ✨personal preference✨🙌🏾 simple concept, really lol but glad you found a song to bop to in the gym!

Dee Shanell

Whatttt how you not like Bodega Baddie??! It hits so hard at the gym for me. I actually love the chaotic vibes from it lol but I can see why people doesn’t like it as well 🙂‍↕️

Tyy

If them Covid songs weren’t on there how would this be performing 👀

Alistair

Glad you found some new good music! Thanks for watching 🤗

Dee Shanell

🫣 lol

Dee Shanell

😂

Dee Shanell

I was thinking that too. She has far better songs on here than Safe that could’ve been the next single. I think she’s trying to trigger nostalgia for fans since Kehlani was on a really popular song on Cardi’s first album. But Safe isn’t nearly as good as Ring so I don’t think this was a great single choice

Dee Shanell

Very true! The vast majority of the rap girls truly disappoint so this is definitely far better than most of them

Dee Shanell

1000% agreed! I would love to see her collab with other female rappers in the near future

Dee Shanell

Oop 👀 lol that would be crazy if that’s the case. Wouldn’t be surprised though tbh

Dee Shanell

Exactly. She would’ve had an amazing album if she got rid of like 8 of these songs

Dee Shanell

It’s really out of 21 since 2 were super old. But for me, that’s pretty decent. I just skimmed through a couple albums that I really like on my Spotify and around 50% is pretty standard for albums I enjoy. So for me, that’s good. Anything above 70% I’ll say I love. It’s extremely rare that I like more than 50% of an album. But yeah everyone has their own metrics, to each their own lol

Dee Shanell

idk if i’d consider 10/23 tracks a good album but that’s just me

Donya Nyile

Too many songs...we don't need 20+ tracklist but all artists are doing that these days I guess because of streaming. It just means soooo much filler on albums

J

Idk if I'm the only person that feels this way but when Cardi called BIA shitty mouth I also took it literally. With her mentioning being with Diddy all the time it made think about what people have been saying about those girls that go to Dubai and what they do for some coin 👀💩...

Aaliyah Henry

i didn’t really like it because i wanted more rap and grimy songs, i’m not really a fan of the rap singing either! good for her for being vulnerable but that’s not really my personal preference. i wish she had more rap collabs, it definitely could’ve been better, maybe it will grow on me but hopefully with this positive feedback that she’s not scared to drop anymore!!!!

gigu

when you take into consideration what these other rap girls put out, some credit is due. She just struggles with cadence. I’ve listened a few times and 6/10 feels right. That Lizzo collab is a hot ass overstimulating mess

Ok

Also see whim whammie from lizzo off the mixtape is a hit and in rotation

Micah

48 hours passed and my honest unbiased opinion is the album is 6.1/10. The album was trying to give lemonade after jay allegedly cheated but it gave limonade. There’s a few good songs magnet, outside, pretty and petty, bodega baddie and up too much songs about offset when you’ve moved on. She wanted to discuss her love life she could have wrote and gave the song to summer to sing. Too much singing lizzo played in the studio too

Micah

listen. i was ready to roast this album and put on my barb cape on, but i actually really like it 😭😭 ofc lyrically it's not the best, and sometimes, as you said, she couldn't catch the beat to save her life, but to me it's a solid album!! it was diverse, it had a bit of everything in it and i actually like majority of the features. i'm confused with the single choice, cause i can appreciate safe but why not pick one of the more upbeat songs, or even pick it up with selena (which i love, one of my faves) and have a cute music video for it? but hey, what do i know

angelito

Overall I think the album is okay. She just needs to focus staying on beat because the beat be kicking her ass sometimes. I didn't mind the slower songs or rapping about offshore, I just didn't like her flow. So I give it a 6/10. Not the best I've heard but def not the worst

Tennessee Love

I really liked the album, I think it definitely held up to IOP and showed growth. I sort of agree with the singing, I do like it however I feel like Cardi shines when she raps like in trophies that’s my favorite song on the album.

Fallin ‘

5/10 is crazy. You're clearly a biased barb because anyone who actually listens to rap can admit this album is solid. It's already gone platinum for a reason

LoriL3ve

She did talk about her new relationship, of course she’s gonna talk about her marriage, of course she’s going to come at other rappers…. Why mention WAP? That’s at the very end

Sean Brodie

Not down syndrome Dee 😂😂😂😂

Tennessee Love

And I want more topics 7 years and all you got to bring is WAP and Offset cheating still? I need some aggression, passion, and top Queen mindset not ts. If you want a sad mixtape fine but for your comeback album to show your THAT.? Give me something HARD is what I’m looking for

Woo

After 7 years of rants and her saying she gone talk on the album im hella disappointed. She been getting dragged for this whole hiatus and I wanted every song to be her talking and popping her shit. This needed to be a 10/10 album to show she’s a top female rapper and it’s just flat. Mind you still is but prove/take it.

Woo

overall, half (or little less than half) of these songs are good. which is kinda disappointing since invasion of privacy was soooo good. but the songs that she did have that was good, I will def come back to :))). thank you dee <3

Jai

I’m sorry but this was a mess to me. I really have considered giving Cardi a listen and literally watching this reaction and experiencing each song with you Dee made me realize that she went 7 years without putting an album out and THIS is the best she did? Considering she had some old songs in there to probably help her album but OVERALL???? THIS WAS A 5/10 and that’s being graceful…chii

Herberth Sanchez

Lizzo pissed me off with that, like girl shut up lol all that yelling

Dee Shanell

Just nasty! 😂 she had a couple TMI moments on this album fasho lol

Dee Shanell

Thanksss hope you enjoy ❤️

Dee Shanell

They should’ve pulled up one of the 50 videos of her ranting about him, she’s talked about him to death. But I’m glad they got what they wanted I guess lol

Dee Shanell

I don’t even remember my initial opinion, chile 😭 that song is so damn old, I don’t have any opinion about it at all. Whatever I said back then is how I feel lol

Dee Shanell

I was gagged! 😭 was not expecting her to be that direct and messy lol

Dee Shanell

Agreed! Especially since she gave them such fire features, it’s very odd that none of them were on here (not counting old ass WAP lol). Something is up lol

Dee Shanell

Stan twitter probably going to war right this second lmao I can see pop fans liking Nicki’s album more and rap/r&b fans liking this one more. Just comes down to preference. And no prob, thanks for being here! ❤️

Dee Shanell

Sis just lying for nothing 😂

Dee Shanell

Thank you! I knew I wasn’t trippin, I’m like I’ve definitely heard this before. The original is less annoying lol

Dee Shanell

😂 valid!

Dee Shanell

Yeahh if a feature doesn’t improve a song, I don’t want it! Most of these felt unnecessary

Dee Shanell

Oh lawd, the barbs and the carbs are fighting chile 😭 much love to both fanbases though lol 🫶🏾

Dee Shanell

“We tired of you” lmaooo I wasn’t feeling Tyla’a hook at first but it slowly grew on me. But yeah these features were a mess

Dee Shanell

Right! She should’ve kept her petty streak going and just went in on him. Might as well be “the drama” she’s referencing lol

Dee Shanell

😂😂😂 gotta be because???? She was completely off beat on some of these songs. It was giving Blueface

Dee Shanell

Heyyy 🫶🏾

Dee Shanell

Sameee, can’t wait to play some of these in the gym lol

Dee Shanell

Overall, I liked 15/23 of the songs. Of those 15, 8 are my faves. Lol "Bodega Baddie" is a NYC thing. The sampled beat could be heard in 5+ bodegas in a day. It's definitely not what i expected it to be considering the hype, but these bodegas might run it up. Some of those songs could've been left out. But I'm glad there's some bops to bop to.

Muffinz Okuurr

I think "on my back" was about her new man 😅

J AS

Hi, Dee

Rex🦖

😂😂😂

Rex🦖

I feel like most of the beats were added after because there no way on god’s green earth Cardi was actively trying to ride these beats 😭

Ben Turner

I liked it but I thought she was gonna have more harder songs , the lizzo feature sucked cuz lizzos newest album ate she was rapping her ass off talking her shit so that’s what I thought it was gone give but I did not and all the extra singin features were a lot and giving offset 2 sympathy songs was not it she should of went all the way in but ig that’s growth Maby lmaoo

Taijhon Monte

I hated the singers on this album so much, Selena Gomez? Really are we in 2016, Lizzo just hollering and screaming, Sza could’ve replaced summer walker, and tyla? Girl we tired of you, kehlani? A mess. Overall she really tried to make invasion of privacy 2 but failed although songs like better than you without the cash cobain part and trophies really stood out to me but I just wish she had a collab with Doja cause that’s the only artist that knows how to rap and sing all together and not make a mess. This album is definitely not bad at all, very solid but it’s not record breaking. Can’t wait for Doja to do it for me.

Scar

Dissing Nicki😭

Scar

retardi-gang are delusional in these comments i see. pink friday 2 is easily far better than this album. she gave her fans 5 year old songs and they're praising it 😭 go figure

ManiBabe

you wish. must be losing your hearing

ManiBabe

not a single feature on this album bettered a song. honestly

pilbil

“And rapping fast don’t mean u can rap” 🤣🫠

J

I think if cardi could master her flow & cadence she would really all around be a better artist. She saying shit but it’s not really flowing like it COULD! it’s like she rushing to get it all in before the beat restart 😭 just run on sentences.

J

Summer done did 2 2 many songs on this we need that SUMMER walker album! 😂 she playing games! No pun intended

J

I can’t be fake I had to stop listening it just sound like background noise to me 🥲 but I’m glad it’s going well! she definitely proved the people wrong saying she would be gone in a couple years. You gotta respect it!

J

Salute is my jam

Shaavanii

The song she sampled with Lizzo is What's Up? by 4 Non Blondes

Erin Stevens

Cardi: Cause I ain't say shit when hoes was out here fuckin mine Dee: Yes you did 😂🤣

Rainbow

I liked 9/23 songs 😭 2 of them came out during covid tho.

Grewal_252

I kept only 4 songs from the first few listens. The featured artist on her album sounded better than her which is what made me not like her verses and flow on it. But putting this out after almost 7 years; yeah no, she could have put this out 2-3 years after IOP and it would have been solid. Comparing it to PF2 since I see other people talking 😂 I think both Nicki and Cardi talk their sh*t in different ways but they both are FIRE when they are featured on other people’s songs. That is crazy to me because I’m always like “Damm you snapped on that song but couldn’t snap on your album.” PF2, I still listen to some songs from there but mostly because there is a pop element to it and I’m just in a pop music sound space but this album from Cardi, I’ll give it a 7/10. It’s a good body of work but it’s missing certain elements. The diss track that BIA put out against her, I’m not mad at Cardi responding 😂 but at the same time it’s like “Girl, you snapped but responded late” but it’s whatever and that’s one of the songs I saved because she did something there. I’m interested to see Stan twitter fight over this and PF2 🤣. Thanks for the reaction again Dee. Have a blessed day. 😇💞…

Joshua Lewis

This album wasn’t bad. It could’ve been way better and I wish she would’ve did more features with more rap girlies or with more rappers in general. I feel like if her features would’ve been with like Doja, or Meg, or Glo, or even a Latto I feel like it would’ve helped so much more instead of Tyla

Jacobe theee Mitchell

I wonder if your opinion on WAP changed again 5 years 😂

Ktri

I was screaming during Pretty and Petty LMAOO. The only word you had for it was "oop-", same girl. I loved how she be mentioning people at last

Natasha

I also liked the fact that she really sit talked about the same topic every song but I do feel we needed more rapping on here but I guess that’s where the music industry at people are gravitating towards melodic rap more than actual rap.

Kenneth Jayy

she added the offset songs because people were going to be asking her why she ain’t speak on all she been through. But yes it was a lot on singing and supposedly people feel like it wasn’t enough features but I liked the story telling she did throughout the album I loved it.

Kenneth Jayy

Same for me but I forget I need to clean 😭

geoffy

I've been waiting for this. Always love your album reviews 🤗

Mkayla 💛

London ft jcole Whole lotta money remix with Nicki Best on earth with rus Same hands Millions Honorary mentions Bamba I’m that bitch

You already know! Lol

Dee Shanell

😭

Dee Shanell

Right?! Some of these rappers wanna be singers so bad, like just stop 😭

Dee Shanell

Tubi vibes lmaoo

Dee Shanell

😭 that was wild

Dee Shanell

What are you referencing? When was Nicki mentioned?

Dee Shanell

ALBUM OF THE YEAR!!!!’

Aaron Boone

This album was better than I thought it was going to be. My favs are Pretty and petty, shower tears, and magnet. Bodega Baddie samples a merengue Dominican track lol its def not for everyone.

Cesar R🇩🇴

Dee talking about “so you not safe ?” I’m so weak😂😂😂😂😂 cause why she got pistol whipped

Shak A

what does nicki have to do with this..

foxyf4g 💞

Okay last thing .. the safe music video made no sense to me I couldn’t tell if the concept was a man making her feel safe but she wasn’t actually safe cause he was a criminal (in a gang/robber) or if she just so happened to get robbed after she was arguing with that lightskin man (who also was in Ariana Grandes “into you” ) music video .. it gave me tubi vibes

Linda Matthews

Also the songs check please , what’s going on , bodega baddie , hello , and principal are all chops I’m so sorry 😭😭 And when lizzo was hollering HAYYYYYYAYYEAHYEAHHEYYYEAH I died laughing The shower tears song was cute but I hated cardi on it it should’ve been done better

Linda Matthews

Was waiting for this video. I personally liked errtime, magnet, check please, pretty and petty the most. Didnt like the love songs at all. Overall good album

Kolya Gevorgyan

I loved the album for the most part it’s a good 8/10 and to me it sounds wayyyy better than pink Friday 2 and I heard it’s on pace to OUTSELL it aswell My fav song were 1. Pretty and Petty 2. Errytime 3. Pick it up 4. Nice guy 5. Magnet

Linda Matthews

I have mixed feeling about this album the only song I personally didn’t care for bodega baddie (that song was all over the place ), salute, what goin on now and originally when imaginary playerz and outside it actually to me sound better with the album but it bc to me she did a good job putting these songs in order and the songs are kinda growing on me but to me for a rap female album it the best one I heard from awhile I did like a few songs from Glorila album from last year and Nicki Minaj pink Friday 2 album especially me being a Nicki fan I wouldn’t say I’m part of the barbz cult 😂 but I only like FTCU and Red ruby da sleeve I actually did like the summer walker collab I know everyone has different opinions bc like my sister she like you where she want to hear actual rapping so she wasn’t a fan of the summer walker but both me and her really enjoy that Tyla and Selena Gomez collab I will say I wish she had rapper on this album tho for example latto, glorilla and even that lizzo song that should been like a rap song and just hear lizzo rapping and then have possibly 2 male rapper 21 savage and Travis Scott but I will agree that some of the songs she kinda sound a little off beat you can definitely hear it when you have headphones on I will say overall it was a decent album for me I believe songs will be a grower for sure I’m curious what expressive has to say about this project as long she don’t be like you know what person she should have added is Chloe Bailey 😂😂😂 (jk) Ik she won’t said that but she always bring up the Bailey sister every chance she has

Julianna Jones

The way how I agree with everything Dee said!! She could’ve kept those slow songs and added more upbeat rap songs smh

Daviiii

57:35😭😭😭

Sen

am i the only one who noticed that one of the songs is misspelled.? "principal" should be "principle" since that's what the song is about and it samples The Pleasure Principle by Janet Jackson

liam jrj

No she's most definitely talking about JT in that one song, "Ricky O the only fashion house you know", JT is the queen of wearing rick owens, and the dildo part is about uzi being gay (allegedly lol). But overall thoughts I really like the album I think it's solidd, I didn't have high expectations because of the lead singles being so weak but i actually like it, and the Bia diss SHOCKED ME!

Angel 💕

Not the reference tracks sounding better lmaooo I am weak 😭 didn’t think about that but I’d be interested to hear them now and see if they were on beat lol I’m not sure how much she actually writes or doesn’t, haven’t looked into it. But I would love to hear the original vision for the songs she didn’t write lol

Dee Shanell

of course dee likes all the songs where cardi is talking shit lmao

Ari

🫶🏾🫶🏾

Dee Shanell

That’s fair, I agree. Some other rappers definitely sound worse, I won’t say no names 😭

Dee Shanell

Love youuu 🫶🏾

Dee Shanell

I’m not here to give Cardi a rundown of what she should be rapping about, I don’t know this lady’s life lmao there’s no specific subject matter I “want” from her. I just don’t wanna hear multiple songs about a failed marriage. That’s it. I don’t care that anyone else likes those songs or appreciates her vulnerability, congrats? 😂 I can only speak on what I didn’t care for and state the aspects of this album that I did enjoy, which I clearly did

Dee Shanell

I have to come to terms I just don’t like her rap voice, I don’t think she is a good rapper lol some of the songs and beats are 🔥 but I bet the reference tracks hit better or a better sounding rapper. Even if you don’t write the the lyrics, make us feel like you writing it, but she just goes in an reads it and forget you have to fit some words in a pocket with certain flows and stretch some words out….. she lacks that skill.

Larry middleton

The movie I been waiting so eagerly to watch!! Thanks Dee 🤌🤌🤌🙏🙏🙏🍾🍾

Calixtro

Kendrick did the Janet flip way better

Kickinthescience

😂

Dee Shanell

Sis just lying like we wasn’t there when she was crying and snottin’ on live about him cheating 😂

Dee Shanell

as much as i’m not a fan of rap girlies singing either, but I WILL say cardi is more digestible than others😭 that’s just my humble opinion 💀

Mikey

Yesss I loved the aggressive songs too! But yeah Tyla kinda ate at the end when she switched up her flow, I was like wait hold on 😭 had to save that one. Glad you enjoyed the vid 🤗

Dee Shanell

Janet said: you not bout to play with my song 😭 that’s interesting. But yeah you’re right, she definitely foreshadowed with the crows!

Dee Shanell

dee honest question, what would you prefer cardi rap about? like i know people get tired of her talking sexually and pussy this and all that so i thought it was great she got a little vulnerable about her past relationship and her new relationship, it was a nice change of scenery from just getting money and sex i felt like

Ishmael Bamba

I think this album is mid and same nicki's pf2 , both of them were not as great but cardi's is better than Nicki's in my opinion ily dee💚

Just Dance107

😂😂

Dee Shanell

She dropped some heat!

Dee Shanell

yessss so glad to know you like Lizzo mixtape ☺️☺️it’s heavy in rotation!!!

BruhItsRodrick

Dee, can you name 5 BIA songs🫵🏼🔫

jarred🇬🇧

10 out of 23 is not bad but Dee, it’s you always doing the Ohhhs and oos when someone says something messy. 😭😭😂😂🤣🤣

Chet Kincaid

she sick for sampling janet and calling it a feature 😭 I was actually curious about how it would sound. tbh as a whole the album ok. I only saved 5 songs but that’s been the case for alot of albums lately. I don’t need to like the whole album, I just look for whatever I can add to my playlist I will say the “cuz i ain’t say shit when hoes was out here fuckin mine” line gagged me bc offset wrong for letting him cheating be one of the main things people associate with her 😭

charmaine

because of pre releases like Up, and WAP

Andre

I enjoyed the album tbh. Lol hopefully you’ll give it another listen in the future .

I was cracking up when Cardi said something about her coochie itching and then Dee’s face LMAOOO. You’re hilarious. On the Janet song she mentioned that Janet Jackson had some pointers on the record, and she couldn’t use the sample without having Janet featured. Janet even decided to change the beat and a few other things, and she said she just let Janet do whatever she wanted to do. I was saying the same thing, the “Dead” song is morbid, but I love it lol. Then when I went back and watched the trailers she dropped before the album, they definitely gave scary movie vibes symbolizing a lot of death especially with the crows on the album cover and in the trailer.

Bro the way it went platinum in one day

41:08 - “Name five BIA songs, Gun Pointin’ to your head” Dee: “Oohhhhww… “ 😭😭😭😭 reaction got me DEAD💀😂 nahhh Pretty & Petty is THAT ONE🔥👀 No i really enjoy the productions on this album, not every song is a hit, thats for sure. I like the aggressive rapping Cardi does🔥🔥 and the more “aggressive” beat HIT! The offbeat rapping is really buggin me. Like she trynna do a blueface type off beat rapping or something and it didnt work out for her😂 Also: I never knew i needed Tyla on this type of song (trap like?) but i love this so much. Definitely in my top 3 Im really curious how she will perform these songs in the upcoming era (touring and all that). But its a good project overall. Definitely gonna keep listening to it and see what I like in a few weeks. Loved this reaction 🔥🔥🔥

clarence.

“YES YOU DID” 😭😭😭😭😭

Her lyrics are very odd sometimes… what you said at the beginning her confidence don’t match with the bars. This album was not it for me some bops but not groundbreaking.. And that song with lizzo got me in tears that’s how bad it was to me😩

Meli

Your lashes are killing you, that shit is jolting😆💀

Salima

This album is cute! I have to listen again but it's better than I expected 7.5/10

LoriL3ve

I got my first listen of this album in the gym and almost every song was hitting, but sitting with it a second time with this reaction I saw a lot of the flaws you pointed out. But again for what I listen to female rap for (basically just at the gym) I think it does a great job, better than every other newer female rap album IMO. Honestly my fav track is On My Back with Lourdiz, she killedddd the chorus and the beat is crazy good with headphones. Cardi is shady for using Lourdiz because that’s the same little girl who Nicki used on Cowgirl on PF2 and that song was ass 💀💀

Grant Evans

Janet Jackson clickbait 😭

Dee Shanell

I genuinely enjoyed it because Pink Friday 2 was a complete disappointment for me. I don’t even revisit that album anymore. As for the two top female rappers, I must give it to Cardi B; she delivered her big moment. I hope this motivates Nicki Minaj to release a better album because, honestly, you can keep the last one. Outside of the Barbz, no one seems to be talking about that album. The amount of hilarious lines on this album, like “you girls look like turkeys,” is unbelievable! 😂

Dom V

She cleared this shit 😂

ted pasek

That song is a mess 😂

Dee Shanell

Preachhh

Dee Shanell

Yeah agreed, I like more songs on this album

Dee Shanell

She’s talking about it JT in magent, and was referring the JT and Uzi about sharing bags and dildos 😭

Qua

The album felt more like a mistake. It was sonically all over the place. I liked about 5-6 songs. The album was funny tho with the Janet Jackson clickbait, her dying in the music video, that line about her coochie itching, etc.

RedWolf

Wth 🤦🏽‍♀️ I know she was doing well on them damn features but she didn’t have to become one on her own damn album tf ?

Samantha Desruisseaux

Janet needs to sue. IMMEDIATELY.

trey444u

my favorite song was the one with Selena that song slaps

itsisaac06

Bodega baddie is killing me like girl I wanna enjoy the song not be confused and overwhelmed😂😂

Emman Amedzi

The album as a whole I will give a 7.6. It’s a good mix of Gansta bitch music volume 1 & Invasion of Privacy. However, I’m a little disappointed. It took 7 years and this what we got! BUT I will say she picked the perfect album name. It’s def a complete album, the songs are good but no replay value unless I’m playing the whole album through. Now the diss tracks 10/10. The beats are 🥴though. But the production🔥. Whoever producing,she need to keep them. Tyla, Kehlani, Lizzo all great features vocally! Summer blew me on the first track , what the fuck was the reason for cash cobain it ruined the track for me & she need to give Janet back her sample if she not gone lay some vocals ! She got like two songs I can hear the strippers loving. Idk overall invasion of privacy was a no skip album to me. Everything on there had replay value and this album while she speaking on all the drama with her it’s just giving not enough

LaLa💙

The album is okay. Not a fan of the singing songs tho, l liked all the raps songs except bodega baddie & Salute

Iamdreon

DEE LIKING A FEMALE RAP POP SONG???? That’s new lol

Teej

i do think this was a great female rap album the streets are eating it up but it’s only day 2. Pink friday was horrible, megan’s main album was meh… this was slightly better than both of em 🤷🏽‍♀️. They can say all they want about her having writers but the girls lagging behindd

Bray

I love this album. I think it’s better than invasion of privacy too

Valyncia

“If you sing imma throw my laptop” - Dee HATES rap girlies that sing

DJ ZAZU

cardi said on the breakfast club that the jackson estate made her do certain stuff to get it cleared so i think ms janet wanted a feature coin as a main artist and not a sample

Bray

She was talking about JT in magnet, but I’m bias (Barb), BUT I’m not hater, decent album I really expected a lot more, cause of prior songs and comparing it to a 7 year old album (IOP), I compared it to (IOP) to see If there were any actual growth, I say YES AND NO, lyrically yes, (but she don’t “write”) so idk, but her delivery on certain songs was great others weren’t, not a fan of singing especially when we never heard that before (Atlest me) Now with the flow, I believe when she was featured on others songs, she had something to go off of, compared to this she’s creating, but it’s up and down with certain songs. Overall though I give it a, 6/10 but knowing who I am 1 more listen will make it a 7 or 7.5 /10!!

Bryson Golden

Having down syndrome a little bit is CRAZY. But you not wrong. 💀

Michael Merriweather

Lmao nah deadass! He did not deserve all these songs on this album!

Dee Shanell

I believe it’s a reference to her and Offsets relationship. Initially, she thought he was her person & felt ultra safe with him. However, as the relationship progressed, she realized that this was indeed not the case. Not only was he NOT her safe space, but he ended up causing her great pain, and hurting her deeply.

Sydney

Yassss 💕

Dee Shanell

That’s funny lmao sis said: I’m here to work, fuck what beef yall got going on 😭

Dee Shanell

Omg it’s so good! I was shook. I listen to it all the time. Lizzo needs to rap full time lol but yes that would’ve been so dope if they were both rapping

Dee Shanell

I said the same thing for the music Video😭, Like how the hell you die but feel safe ? This video so backwards.

Jaheim Harris

Had to get back in my bag after being on vacation for so long lol thank you for watching! ❤️

Dee Shanell

Listen bruh, I don’t wanna hear Cardi simping over Offset anymore. Move on smh

Paul Reyes

Ngl the only thing that threw me off about the 1st song was the AI SZA at the end of the song and Summer Walker being on that song. I didnt get those 2 decisions but overall, I got a good 13-14 songs I like so I can say I enjoy the album lol. I wonder if she gonna do a deluxe or how long its gonna take to get album #3 lol Edit: Oh and another thing I didnt get is Nicki's artist Lourdiz being on the album? Did Cardi and Nicki finally squash the beef? I found that interesting too

lilrickyfrm51

I can see that 😂

Dee Shanell

I WAS WAITING TO LISTEN TO IT WITH U ❤️❤️❤️

Lug chug

Not Lordis being on Pink Friday 2 and Cardi album 💀

crispygum

also I feel the same about her song with lizzo, when I saw they had a song I was like "damnn their both gonna be rapping rapping" girl.... no and I love Lizzie's mixtape so much 😒

liyah

Timestamp 33:23 Dee getting attacked again by her eyelashes 👀

Sa7ekg 027

In the beginning of the music video she got a message from kehlani asking if that was her man robbing and I guess the man at the end was somebody that he screwed over so he killed cardi so she was truly never safe with the man

JustMeLayo

dee you be pumping out these videos, thank you so much !!

Bray

A lot of the songs I loved immediately are the heavy ones when she’s rapping rapping and talking reckless. I appreciated how vulnerable she was on “Man Of Your Word” too. Overall, I thought it was a solid album. Other songs grew on me the more I listened.

DwayneJay

Yeahh when you wait this long, expectations definitely rise!

Dee Shanell

Yayy welcomee 🤗

Dee Shanell

I feel you on Bodega Baddie…. Although ngl i feel like if i was lit af in the club i would enjoy it lmao

Lex Fuller

Honestly I wouldn’t say she forgot to rap imo. I feel like she trying to rap quicker, like say her verse in a rush 😭 Edit: Wait nvm you figured it out in the end 😭

geoffy

I think everyone knows that, the lyrics are very clearly highlighted. This album is already long enough though, why would I keep pausing the video to read the side annotations? That would’ve dragged out this reaction. I knew I would find out eventually though, it wasn’t dire that I found out right that second lol

Dee Shanell

Invasion of privacy was way better than this album

J B

I'm a new suscrible in your patreon, i love your reaction 🔥😁

Mathias Lorsold

She was talkin about JT and Uzi in that magnet song lol

Rah2xx

I always wonder if dee knows she can click the lyrics to see who she's talking about or if it's a rhetorical question lol

d

I’m pretty sure in Magnet she talking about JT and Uzi😭, at least that’s the only ppl I could think of

Nestor

She talking about JT and Uzi in the magnet song .

Joanah Eugene

It’s chore Saturday and Dee gave me sumn to watch while cleanin this bathroom….PRAISE EM🙏🏾

Zyree

❤️

Dee Shanell

Lol I think you will!

Dee Shanell

I’m WAITING for Empressive to drop a video and for Dee to react to it. However reading some comments on YouTube - most barbs aren’t mad at it but they think the same way you do Dee. Decent project but not out of this world. And at least she’s not a one album wonder anymore.

DJ ZAZU

Oop 👀

Dee Shanell

Yessss

Dee Shanell

Listening a second time isn’t gonna help her catch the beat

Dee Shanell

Been waiting for dees reaction was pleasantly surprised with this album tbh but after almost a decade of teasing I wanted something else

Jackdeel

Dee gotta give the first song a second listen chile

Joanah Eugene

Oh it’s about to be a Patreon morning, let’s go Dee!

Chet Kincaid

Jordyne Gipson

Jorden

Kewi.

Great album loved it down in my imo she did the thing if u want Nicki Minaj or Jay z debut type of lyrics u not gonna get it here but it’s def a great album I prefer it over all rap albums released the last 5 years . And that’s no shade .

Joanah Eugene

Love your reaction 💖 Always look forward to your album reviews 😊

LinaCyber
