In a candid and scathing review, social media personality Milagro has expressed her disappointment with Cardi B’s highly anticipated album, “Am I the Drama?” Released after a seven-year wait, Milagro attended a listening party for the album and was left unimpressed, characterizing it as “mediocre.”
Milagro opened her critique by stating that the album felt less substantial than the hype surrounding its release. She suggested that the music lacked a strong foundation, implying that the build-up to the album was more significant than the actual content. “I felt like this was something that should have been a mixtape released six years ago,” she said, noting that the timing might have garnered Cardi B more attention had it been released during a less competitive musical landscape.
While acknowledging that some songs had their merits, Milagro was adamant that the album did not meet the expectations set for a world-renowned artist like Cardi B. “It’s not that Cardi didn’t put out an album that a female rapper wouldn’t be happy to have in her repertoire, but it wasn’t reflective of what you would want from someone who’s supposed to be an international Grammy-winning, diamond-selling artist,” she asserted.
Milagro also took issue with some of the album’s collaborations, specifically mentioning the song featuring Selena Gomez, which she believed should have been promoted first. She theorized that less impressive tracks were released initially to cushion the blow of the album’s overall lackluster quality.
The critique didn’t stop at the music itself; Milagro also delved into Cardi B’s personal life and its impact on her artistry. She expressed confusion over some of the themes presented in the album, particularly regarding relationships, and questioned how they resonated with listeners. “It could only be y’all simple-minded that will follow behind a woman who’s navigating such chaotic circumstances,” she remarked, pointing out the contradictions in Cardi B’s public persona.
Despite some lighter moments in the album, Milagro felt that overall, the project fell short and was not as compelling as Cardi B’s debut album. She concluded her review by emphasizing that the anticipation surrounding “Am I the Drama?” ultimately did not translate into a satisfying musical experience and expressed hope that future projects would better reflect Cardi B’s potential.
As the music industry awaits the album’s performance on the charts, it remains to be seen how audience reception will align with Milagro’s critical perspective. With the digital age amplifying diverse opinions, Cardi B may find herself navigating not only the musical landscape but also the complex dynamics of public perception and critique in her career moving forward.
