Cardi B is proving her dedication as she powers through the Little Miss Drama Tour, just over three months after welcoming her fourth child, a son with Patriots star Stefon Diggs. The rapper has now completed 12 sold-out shows, directly countering anyone who doubted her commitment.

Addressing critics on X, Cardi B shared her perspective with a video from a recent show. “The fact of the matter is, so far every single show of mine has been sold out. Packed from top to bottom! They said I wasn’t gonna commit after I gave birth, they said I wasn't gonna take it seriously, but I take it very seriously,” she wrote. She stressed that her performances are two-hour spectacles designed to give fans the full experience, combining concerts with high-energy parties.

Cardi continued, explaining the personal significance of her dedication. “I don’t like to play with my money, so I wouldn’t want to play with y’all money. So if y’all paying to see me, I’m gonna give y’all a hell of a show,” she said. She highlighted the effort fans put into attending her concerts, promising her energy and full performance in return.

The Little Miss Drama Tour supports Cardi’s latest album, Am I the Drama?, which debuted at number one on the Billboard Hot 100. Live Nation recently confirmed that Cardi became the first female rapper to sell out two nights at the Kia Forum in Los Angeles, reflecting her enduring appeal.

Throughout the tour, she has welcomed several surprise guests, including GloRilla, Kehlani, Tyla and Blueface, adding excitement to each show. Cardi has also publicly praised Kehlani and Tyla for their performances, sharing heartfelt messages on social media.

With tour stops in cities such as San Francisco, Phoenix, Houston, Dallas, Chicago, New York, Boston, Philadelphia, and more, the tour will conclude on April 18 in Atlanta. Cardi’s unapologetic energy and commitment demonstrate that she is fully focused on delivering unforgettable performances for her fans while balancing life as a mother of four.
