Cardi B Is Back ‘Outside' With A New Single

Cardi B In the wake of her split from estranged husband Offset, hit-making rapper Cardi B is ready to show she's 'Outside' for the summer. The Bronx-bred MC is back with her first solo single of 2025 and is setting the stage for her long-awaited sophomore album. 'Outside" is believed to be a direct shot at Offset as Cardi prepares to return to music in full force. She announced earlier this month that she turned in her second album to Atlantic Records, more than seven years after the release of her Grammy-winning debut Invasion of Privacy. 'I'm finally feeling ready,' she said during a recent Instagram Live. 'Y'all waited long enough. It's 'go' time.' 'When I tell you these n***as ain't sh**t, please believe me / They gon' f**k on anything, these n***as way too easy / Good-for-nothing, low-down dirty dogs, I'm convinced / Next time you see your mama, tell her how she raised a b***h,' she raps on the track. Though a large chunk of time has passed since her last LP, Cardi's dominance in hip-hop hasn't faded. She notched back-to-back number-one singles on the Billboard Hot 100 chart with 'WAP' in 2020 and 'Up' in 2021 and other top-10 hits with last year's 'Enough (Miami)' and her 2022 GloRilla collab 'Tomorrow 2.' Cardi teased the forthcoming album in a Billboard interview in April and promised something unlike anything currently in the zeitgeist. "I almost want to say the name because that's what it'll be about," she said. "I feel like my album is messy. She's a messy queen." "I feel like it's unexpected and I feel like it's something that's not really out right now," she continued. "It's gonna be things that people do expect me and a lot of things people don't expect from me." The rollercoaster of her life over the past year – from filing for divorce a second time last July and having her third child in September to her new relationship with New England Patriots player Stefon Diggs this spring – has played a key role in the upcoming project. "It's a lot of lover girl things, too, on my album. I've been heartbroken and then I'm loving again, and then I'm exploring again," she added, though she noted there'll be music to 'fight' to as well.

R. Kelly claims prison officials plotted to kill him. Judge denies his release

SPRINGFIELD, Ill. -- A judge has denied singer R. Kelly 's request to be freed from prison, saying she lacks jurisdiction to consider the convicted sex offender's allegations that federal prison officials plotted to murder him. U.S. District Judge Martha M. Pacold canceled Friday's scheduled arguments in Chicago, and instead issued a five-page ruling denying his emergency request to serve his time on home detention during a temporary furlough. Born Robert Sylvester Kelly, the 58-year-old Grammy-winning R&B singer is serving sentences at a prison in Butner, North Carolina, for child sex crimes and racketeering. Pacold noted that federal courts have only limited power in such cases, and one by one she examined and rejected various ways Kelly's request could be considered. 'Jurisdictional limitations must be respected even where, as here, a litigant claims that the circumstances are extraordinary,' Pacold wrote. "Kelly has not identified (nor is the court aware of) any statute or rule that authorizes the court to exercise jurisdiction. Thus, the court cannot award relief in this case.' Kelly claimed in a series of filings this month that prison officials solicited white supremacist leaders to kill him, to halt the disclosure of information damaging to prison officials. Kelly's attorney says he was then moved to solitary confinement and purposely given an overdose of medication, which required hospitalization and surgery for blood clots. Pacold noted that Kelly offers no evidence to back up his claims. Government lawyers suggested Kelly had spun a 'fanciful conspiracy.' Known for such hits as 'I Believe I Can Fly,' Kelly was found guilty in Chicago in 2022 of three charges of producing child sexual abuse images and three charges of enticement of minors for sex. In New York in 2021, he was found guilty of racketeering and sex trafficking. He is serving most of his 20-year Chicago sentence and 30-year New York sentence simultaneously. His appeals have been unsuccessful, including to the U.S. Supreme Court. Kelly has also sought President Donald Trump's help.
