Cardi B‘s Am I The Drama? earned double platinum certification by the Recording Industry Association of America on Monday (Sept. 29), just 10 days after the album’s release.
“The drama just doubled @iamcardib’s #AmITheDrama? is now officially a 2x Platinum certified album! @atlanticrecords,” the RIAA wrote on X.
Her highly anticipated sophomore album earned platinum certification on release day, thanks to the inclusion of her and Megan Thee Stallion‘s nine-time platinum smash “WAP” and the five-time platinum hit “Up,” both of which topped the Billboard Hot 100. Since the album’s release on Sept. 19, the Bronx native has added two more songs on Am I The Drama?: the bonus track “Don’t Do Too Much” and the “ErrTime” remix with Latto.
Am I The Drama? also became Cardi B’s second No. 1 album on the Billboard 200 this week (chart dated Oct. 4), earning 200,000 equivalent album units. It marks 2025’s biggest week for an R&B/hip-hop album by a woman. The album arrives seven years after her six-time platinum debut album Invasion of Privacy, and all 13 of its tracks was certified platinum or higher in 2022, making Cardi the first female rapper to achieve the feat and extending her initial record as the first female artist to have every track on an album certified gold.
“Cardi B, every song platinum, I’m not the other bi—,” she rapped on the Jay Z-sampling single “Imaginary Playerz.” Now she can boast, “Cardi B, every album multiplatinum.”
