Cardi B Announces Album Features: Janet Jackson, Megan Thee Stallion, and More

After six years of anticipation, Cardi B has finally revealed the features for her sophomore album—and let’s just say, she didn’t come to play. The Bronx superstar is making a statement with a bold and unexpected lineup that pulls in legends, pop stars, R&B heavyweights, and rap favorites.

From Janet Jackson to Megan Thee Stallion, Cardi’s upcoming project looks less like a standard rap album and more like a cultural event.

The Official Feature Lineup

Here’s who made the cut:

• Cash Cobain – Known for his raw, New York drill and sample-heavy sound, Cash brings an underground edge. Expect gritty vibes and a nod to Cardi’s Bronx roots.

• Janet Jackson – Yes, the Janet Jackson. This feature shocked fans across social media. A pop and R&B legend linking with Cardi B suggests a track with crossover appeal and iconic energy.

• Kehlani – With her smooth vocals and emotional pen, Kehlani could give Cardi’s album the soulful, vulnerable moment fans didn’t see coming.

• Lizzo – Both women are larger-than-life personalities, so this collab screams fun, body-positive, and radio-ready.

• Megan Thee Stallion – The reunion everybody expected. After “WAP” dominated the charts, fans are itching to see if Cardi and Meg can deliver another global smash.

• Selena Gomez – Another curveball. With Selena’s pop background, this track could be aimed at international charts and TikTok virality.

• Summer Walker – The queen of moody, toxic R&B. A collab with Cardi could give us that late-night, ride-around-and-reflect anthem.

• Tyla – Fresh off her “Water” success, Tyla is one of the hottest new artists in the world. Adding her to the mix shows Cardi’s eye for global trends and Afrobeats-inspired sounds.

Why This Lineup Matters

This is not just a rap record. Cardi’s features prove she’s aiming for genre-blending dominance:

• Hip-Hop Heat: Megan Thee Stallion, Cash Cobain

• R&B Soul: Kehlani, Summer Walker

• Pop Power: Selena Gomez, Lizzo

• Legend Status: Janet Jackson

• Global Wave: Tyla

It’s clear Cardi wants this album to live everywhere—on hip-hop playlists, R&B stations, Top 40 radio, and even global charts.

The Fan Reactions

As soon as Cardi revealed the names, Twitter, TikTok, and Instagram comments went wild:

• “Cardi got Janet Jackson??? She not playing with y’all.”

• “This lineup looks like a festival, not an album.”

• “Okay, but if the features outshine her… 👀”

• “Selena Gomez AND Summer Walker?? Cardi really said diversity.”

Some fans are hyped for the crossover energy, while others are cautious—pointing out that with so many big names, Cardi will have to prove she can hold her own and not get drowned out.

What’s Next?

Cardi hasn’t confirmed the release date yet, but with this rollout, the album already feels like one of 2025’s most anticipated drops. Whether you’re Team Cardi, a casual fan, or just here for the tea, one thing is certain: this project will have the whole industry watching.

 Cardi B’s sophomore album isn’t just stacked—it’s strategic. With legends, mainstream stars, and fresh talent in the mix, this feature list alone guarantees the album will dominate conversations. The only question left is: will the music live up to the hype?
