Cardi B is officially back with her first solo release in months—and this one is making serious noise. The Bronx rap queen announced the highly anticipated single “Outside” is set to drop this Friday, June 20, and fans are already buzzing over rumors that the track may take subtle shots at her estranged husband, Offset.

Is “Outside” a Diss Track?

The speculation surrounding “Outside” intensified after a snippet of the track surfaced online. The bars—while not calling names—carry an undeniable tone of betrayal and emotional distance. Many believe the lyrics reflect the tension that’s built up during Cardi’s rocky relationship with Offset, who recently filed for spousal support following their split.

Though Cardi hasn’t confirmed the diss angle, fans are reading between the lines, especially after Offset dropped his own track recently, reportedly aimed at both Cardi and her rumored new flame, NFL star Stefon Diggs.

Cardi B’s Mixed Emotions

Interestingly, Cardi revealed she wasn’t initially excited about releasing “Outside.” In a live stream captured by Live Bitez, she admitted:

“I don’t really care much for the song, but everybody loves it… My label wants me to drop it because they love the reaction to it. I might drop it, I might not.”

That mood seems to have changed. Cardi confirmed the release on Instagram with the caption:
“We OUTSIDE this Friday!! 😤 PRE-SAVE LINK IN BIO.”

With that announcement, the countdown officially began.

What This Means for Her Upcoming Album

“Outside” marks Cardi B’s first solo single since March 2024’s “Enough (Miami),” and follows February’s freestyle “Like What.” While both records sparked rumors of her long-awaited sophomore album, the rollout seemed to stall—likely due to personal circumstances, including her public separation from Offset and time spent raising her newborn daughter, Blossom.

Now, with “Outside” signaling a fiery return to form, fans hope it’s the start of a full-fledged album rollout. Cardi’s ability to turn personal strife into chart-topping anthems could play in her favor once again.

Social Media Reacts

The Cardi B fanbase is beyond ready. Here’s what some are saying:

• “DOWNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN BABY! I’m so happy because I ran that snippet out!”

• “Not DRAMA on the storm drain! And what is this crow about!?!? I’m READY!!!!! 🔥”

With an aggressive sound and bold energy teased in previews, “Outside” might just become Cardi’s next viral moment.

Final Thoughts

Whether it’s a subtle clapback or simply an anthem of personal empowerment, “Outside” arrives at a pivotal time in Cardi B’s career. As she navigates a messy public split and a new chapter in motherhood, all eyes are on how this next era unfolds.
