Cardi B has unveiled her latest single, “Imaginary Playerz,” drawing inspiration from Jay-Z’s 1997 track “Imaginary Players.” The song is the second single from her forthcoming album, Am I the Drama?, set to release on September 19, 2025. Cardi B confirmed that Jay-Z personally approved the sample, stating, “If he didn’t approve it, I probably wouldn’t have even felt a certain type of way either.” The track features production by DJ SwanQo, OctaneThisThatGas, and Sean Island.
The accompanying music video, co-directed by Cardi B and Patientce Foster, showcases the rapper immersing herself in a life of luxury. The visual complements the song’s themes of opulence and confidence, aligning with Cardi B’s signature style.
