<p id=”par-2_75″>Cardi B’s sophomore album, <em>Am I the Drama?</em>, promises moments from huge stars in the music industry. With an all-star lineup featuring Janet Jackson, Lizzo, Selena Gomez, Megan Thee Stallion, Summer Walker, Kehlani, <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/news/cardi-b-defends-tyla-online-hate-racial-identity-want.html/”>Tyla</a>, and others, this album promises not just sonic heat, but emotional weight and surprising twists. Singles like “Outside” and “Imaginary Playerz” already stirred the pot. And Cardi B seems ready to reclaim her throne while redefining the narrative around her drama.</p>
<p id=”par-3_52″>While visiting <em>The Jennifer Hudson Show</em> in September 2025, Cardi said she’s “so overwhelmed” with her album release. “I’m excited, and I’m very nervous, but it’s just so many different feelings,” she continued. “I just cannot wait to get it out of the way. It’s like I’m pushing another baby or something.”</p>
<p id=”par-4_22″>Cardi explained that it took her seven years to release her second album because she finally felt like she created what’s “missing.”</p>
<p id=”par-5_28″>“And I feel like I touched on everything that I wanted to touch,” she continued. “And it’s like, I’m done. I’m done. I can’t possible fit no more.”</p>
<p id=”par-6_49″>Cardi also verified with Jennifer Hudson that she plans to head on tour following her album’s release. “I’m already preparing for it,” she explained. And it sounds like it’ll involve a lot of dancing. “I’m already preparing for it. I’m at the gym, and I’m taking dancing classes already.”</p>
<p id=”par-7_27″>As for what fans should expect from the tour, Cardi said she’s going to “give a little jazz, a little fade, a little head, a little head.”</p>

<p id=”par-8_82″>Cardi B is bringing her signature mix of bold energy and unapologetic flair to stages worldwide with the “Little Miss Drama Tour,” her first headlining run in years.

The tour begins on Feb. 11, 2026, in Palm Desert, California, and ends on April 17, 2026, in Atlanta, Georgia.</p>
<p id=”par-9_16″>On Sept. 16, 2025, Cardi posted a tour announcement to Instagram, resulting in excitement from fans.</p>
<p id=”par-10_49″>“HELLO!!” she captioned the <a href=”https://www.instagram.com/p/DOqmp_DjmJG/” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>post</a> that included the 2026 tour dates. “We putting the kids to bed early because the Little Miss Drama Tour is coming to a city near you!

<p id=”par-11_19″>Cardi B told <a href=”https://www.billboard.com/music/rb-hip-hop/cardi-b-billboard-cover-story-2025-rb-hip-hop-power-players-1236056447/” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>Billboard</a> that her “Little Miss Drama Tour” will be unlike any performance she’s ever done. </p>
<p id=”par-12_104″>“I know I’m a good performer. Well, am I? No, I’m great. I’m actually really great because I was a stripper,” she laughed. “But no, I think my personal tour is not going to be like any other performances that I’ve ever had. From the aesthetics to the look to even the way I perform, I’m going to be doing things that I don’t normally do, like work out, because I want to be the best. I’ve been going to so many different tours. I went to the Madonna show and the Beyoncé show. I can’t perform like Beyoncé, but you can’t half-a** nothing.”</p>
<p id=”par-13_59″>Cardi noted that she plans to give the tour her “all” despite her asthma. “I have two left feet, but I’m going to have to get a fake leg,” she continued. “A right one because I’m going to give it my all. This is going to be one of the greatest tours. I’m going to make it the best.”</p>
