Cardi B celebrated her legal victory against former security guard Emani Ellis by taking off her pants and teasing a new track from her upcoming album, Am I the Drama?
In a post shared on TikTok, as seen below, Cardi wore the same polka dot outfit she wore to court the same day while dancing to a new song that appears to be called “Bodega Baddie.” While dancing to the track, she added in shots of herself without pants, twerking and smiling while flipping off the camera. “Walking out of court likeeee,” she captioned the video. “#BodegaBaddie.”
The new song is expected to appear on her new album Am I the Drama?, the long-awaited follow-up to her 2018 debut effort, Invasion of Privacy. Earlier this year, she dropped the single “Outside,” while last month she gave fans a preview of what to expect with “Imaginary Playerz.” The record will drop on September 19.
It’s a huge month for Cardi with her second album finally on the horizon, just weeks after a jury reached a unanimous decision clearing her of allegations of assault. The security guard, Emani Ellis, alleged that Cardi assaulted her in 2018 during one of Cardi’s visits to an obstetrics and gynecology facility in Beverly Hills. At the time, she was pregnant with her first child, Kulture.
Ellis claimed that she was scratched, assaulted, called a racial slur, spat at, and body-shamed by Cardi. She denied all of the allegations.
Cardi later addressed the verdict when she spoke to reporters outside of court. “I want to thank the jurors,” she said. “I want to thank the judge and I want to thank the respectful press—I really appreciate that. … I swear to God, I did not touch that woman. I didn’t lay my hands on that girl and with that being said, the next person that tried to do a frivolous lawsuit against me, I’m going to countersue and make you pay. Because this is not OK.”
