There’s a lot more where Cardi B’s “Like What (Freestyle)” came from, and she has the receipts to prove it. On Friday, March 1, Cardi dropped “Like What” alongside a video directed by Offset, which is another conversation to be had at a different time. Cardi B has been busy promoting the well-received song on her Instagram Story, sneaking in a tease for future music.
In one video, Cardi B scrolls through “like 100 songs” on her computer dating back to January 2023. “Look how long I’ve had this f*cking record for,” she says off-camera. “January 27, 202-f*ckin’-3. I was working on this sh*t at 5 a.m. You know I’m a night owl.”
Cardi added, “I’m not letting my anxiety, I’m not letting what haters say, I’m not letting what fans say — if I do a song, I’m gonna just f*cking drop it. Well, I got no choice because I’m dropping my album this year, so stay tuned for the announcement. But don’t play with me!”
