Cardi B faces mounting authorized scrutiny as she readies her extremely anticipated album, Am I The Drama?, for a fall launch. A lawsuit filed by artists Joshua Fraustro, often known as Sten Joddi, and Miguel Aguilar, also called Kemikal956, alleges that her new single, “Enough (Miami),” lifts substantial parts from their 2021 monitor, Greasy FryBread.

The plaintiffs are in search of an injunction to forestall “Enough (Miami)” from showing on the album. Their legal professional, Robert Flores, contends that together with the monitor would trigger irreparable hurt to his purchasers. “The damages to plaintiffs will not only be irreparable, but almost impossible to calculate,” Flores mentioned. He added that eradicating a single tune from a 23-track album can be far much less damaging than permitting a possible copyright violation to succeed in the general public.

Should the courtroom grant the injunction, “Enough (Miami)” might be pulled from streaming providers and barred from any efficiency, distribution, or monetization till the dispute is resolved. Its final presence on Am I The Drama? stays unclear.

Album Release Timeline

Flores asserts that “Enough (Miami)” performs a key function within the album’s promotion, although no official tracklist has confirmed its inclusion. Pre-save choices on Spotify and different platforms at the moment omit the only. It stays unsure whether or not Cardi B or Atlantic Records will reply publicly or by courtroom filings. Fans, in the meantime, are anticipating her subsequent single, “Imaginary Players,” slated for launch on Friday, August 15, providing a preview of the album’s sound forward of its official September 19 debut.

Cardi B has moved to dismiss the lawsuit, arguing that Fraustro and Aguilar did not correctly register their copyright. The decision of this case may have an effect on each the album’s launch schedule and content material, although it stays unsure whether or not the matter will likely be settled earlier than the official drop. As this story develops, additional updates are seemingly, including new layers of complexity to the rollout of Cardi B’s eagerly awaited undertaking.
