Cardi B isn’t just promoting an album — she’s launching a movement.
The Grammy-winning rapper made a jaw-dropping appearance at WWE SummerSlam 2025, proving once again that nobody does a rollout quite like Cardi B. The Bronx-born superstar opened the iconic wrestling event on Saturday, August 2, at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey, with fashion, flair, and fresh music — all in true Cardi style.
With her upcoming sophomore album, Am I The Drama?, just around the corner, Cardi is taking her promo game to the next level. And SummerSlam’s massive stage — streaming worldwide and packed with diehard fans — was the perfect place to set it off.
⚡ Cardi B Hits the WWE Stage Like Only She Can
Cardi B kicked off the 38th annual SummerSlam like a true icon. Wearing a sculpted, all-black Schiaparelli gown with a dramatic fringe collar, she commanded attention the second she stepped into the spotlight.
Fans instantly connected the high-fashion look to her growing collection of bird-inspired ensembles, which have become a visual motif for this new album era. The sharp shoulders, dramatic curves, and powerful silhouette screamed confidence — and drama.
But Cardi wasn’t just there to slay the red carpet. She also gave fans a sneak peek at her new track, “Hello, It’s Me”, which is expected to appear on Am I The Drama? The track reportedly dives into themes of self-reflection, industry pressure, and public perception — with Cardi’s signature honesty and bite.
“This album is about who I’ve become and how far I’ve come,” Cardi teased earlier this summer. “But also… how I’m not done yet. Not even close.”
💥 Wrestling Fans + Bardi Gang = Internet Explosion
The surprise crossover between WWE superfans and the Bardi Gang set the internet on fire. Social media lit up the moment Cardi B walked out, with #CardiAtSummerSlam and #AmITheDrama trending within minutes.
“Did Cardi just open SummerSlam in Schiaparelli while previewing new music?? This rollout is insane,” one fan posted on X (formerly Twitter).
The event also gave Cardi a chance to connect with a new audience: wrestling diehards. And judging by the crowd’s explosive reaction, she nailed it.
🖤 Cardi’s Bird Era: What It All Means
This isn’t the first time Cardi has embraced ornithological couture in the name of promo. Just last month, she caused a scene at Paris Couture Week when she arrived at the Schiaparelli show wearing a gown featuring a live crow as part of the ensemble. Yes, a real crow.
While some called it avant-garde and others called it chaos, Cardi knew exactly what she was doing: building intrigue around Am I The Drama?
Fashion insiders say Cardi’s bird-inspired looks symbolize transformation, power, and dominance — themes that are likely front and center on the new album. And if her recent fashion choices are any indication, this era is going to be bigger, bolder, and even more unapologetic than her explosive 2018 debut, Invasion of Privacy.
💄 Cardi’s New Business Moves: Beauty, Fashion & Beyond
Beyond the stage and studio, Cardi B is also making major business boss moves. In April, she revealed a new venture that’s been quietly in the works: her own fashion and beauty line — in partnership with none other than Revolve Group.
During an interview with ELLE, the rapper shared her excitement about the collaboration and her high standards for the brand.
“Revolve knows the formula,” Cardi said. “They know how to make it pop, how to build it, how to sell it. I’ve watched how they move — and I’m not accepting anything that looks cheap.”
She added that accessibility is key, but without sacrificing quality or Cardi’s trademark flash:
“I want everything to feel good, look good, and still be accessible. They really listen.”
This expansion into fashion and beauty feels like a natural next step for Cardi, who has long been praised for her red carpet risks, bold makeup choices, and ability to set trends across music, style, and culture.
🎶 Am I The Drama? — Everything We Know (So Far)
So what can fans expect from Cardi B’s long-awaited second album?
While the rapper has been tight-lipped about the full tracklist, she’s been sprinkling hints across social media, interviews, and surprise events like SummerSlam.
Here’s what’s been confirmed or heavily speculated:
- 🎤 Lead single: “Enough (Miami)” – Already making waves on TikTok and radio.
- 🎶 “Hello, It’s Me” – The track previewed at SummerSlam, full of introspective bars.
