Cardi B’s “Invasion of Privacy” has experienced a surge on the charts following the release of Nicki Minaj’s “Pink Friday 2.” Cardi’s historic project, now five years old, re-entered the iTunes Hip-Hop/Rap chart in the U.S., reaching the No. 2 spot, just behind Nicki’s new album.
The iTunes chart reflects purchases on iTunes, not streaming numbers. Eminem, Dr. Dre, 50 Cent, and three previous Nicki Minaj albums also appear on the chart. Cardi’s album initially entered at No. 5 before quickly rising to the second position. Whether this iTunes boost will impact its position on the Billboard 200 remаins to be seen.
In addition to renewed album interest, Cardi has been in the spotlight for rumored issues in her marriage with Offset. Both artists made vague comments online about relationships, and fans noticed they are no longer following each other on Instagram. This recent drаmа follows Offset’s earlier accusation of Cardi’s infidelity, which she vehemently denied in a public response.
