Cardi B has just unveiled her star-studded list of collaborators for her highly anticipated sophomore album, AM I THE DRAMA? — and the hype for the record is now bigger than ever.

The famed female rapper broke the news on her official social media platforms and several billboards across the United States, revealing the involvement of musicians like Selena Gomez, Megan Thee Stallion, Tyla, Kehlani, Lizzo, Summer Walker, Cash Cobain, and Janet Jackson on the record. “WHO ELSE IS THE DRAMA?” Cardi captioned the announcement online — which in turn was met with positive feedback from fans and casual listeners alike.

Notably, Janet Jackson’s forthcoming appearance on the album is quite a feature to have, considering this marks Jackson’s first-ever guest feature on a fellow female artist’s album. On the other hand, Megan Thee Stallion’s involvement on the record comes with the inclusion of the chart-topping hit single “WAP” on the record.

The announcement marks the latest endeavor in Cardi’s impressive rollout for her second album, following the release of two new singles — the fiery “Outside” and “Imaginary Playerz,” the latter of which flips a sample of Jay-Z’s 1997 classic “Imaginary Players” — as part of her full-court promotional press.

Her ongoing promotional tour has seen her post humorous videos selling her album on the street and in the Subway of New York City, with a following impromptu pop-up event in a bodega in Washington Heights that packed out the block. Additionally, she is also scheduled to set to host a string of in-store meet-and-greets this week in Cypress, Texas; Easton, Pennsylvania; Riverdale, Georgie; and Long Beach, California — all of which are now sold out.

The famed “Bodak Yellow” rapper also recently made headlines for her courtroom appearance in a $24 million civil suit, in which she was accused of assaulting a security guard. Cardi was cleared of all charges — and in true Cardi fashion, she responded by turning viral clips of her testimony into a series of tongue-in-cheek “AM I THE DRAMA?” memes, even launching a limited collection of CDs, vinyl, and clothing merchandise commemorating her court appearance.
