Cardi B returns with fierce new single 'Outside'

Cardi B is back with her first solo release in over a year, and the wait has certainly been worth it. Her new single, ‘Outside’, lands with all the confidence and swagger we’ve come to expect from the Bronx-born superstar, further fuelling the excitement that’s been bubbling since teasers first emerged.

Premiered at an exclusive Cannes afterparty, the track comes to life with sharp, bass-heavy production courtesy of Charlie Heat and HeyMicki, with DJ SwanQo adding his signature co-production flair. It's a slick, defiant anthem that sees Cardi in full control, flexing her lyrical power and commanding presence over a beat that’s built to hit hard.

The release also arrives during a particularly headline-grabbing chapter in Cardi’s life, with ongoing speculation about her relationship status following public tensions with Offset and rumours linking her to NFL star Stefon Diggs. But rather than address it directly, ‘Outside’ keeps the focus on what she does best, owning the moment and letting the music speak loudest.

Whether you’re here for the drama or the drop, one thing’s certain - Cardi’s back, and she’s not holding back. Tap in and listen to ‘Outside’ below.
