Cardi B’s AM I THE DRAMA? which out on September 19, 2025, is her long-awaited sophomore album, and “Safe” featuring Kehlani is a gem that’s got everyone talking. Cardi, the Bronx queen behind hits like “Bodak Yellow” and “WAP,” brings her unapologetic swagger, while Kehlani, fresh off CRASH, adds her signature R&B warmth, crafting a track that’s both fierce and soulful. As track 8 of 23, “Safe” likely dives into trust or emotional refuge, balancing the album’s bold energy, think “Bodega Baddie” or “Pick It Up” (feat. Selena Gomez), with a deeper, introspective edge.
Cardi’s raw lyricism, paired with Kehlani’s silky vocals, echoes their past collabs like “Ring,” but with the high-drama stakes of AM I THE DRAMA?. The album, packed with features like Lizzo and Janet Jackson, reflects Cardi’s knack for blending street grit with pop polish, and “Safe” stands out as a moment of vulnerability amid the chaos. Fans are buzzing about its place in her Little Miss Drama tour narrative, kicking off in 2026. Want more of this vibe? Dive into the Safe lyrics below to catch why this collab is a highlight of Cardi’s 2025 reign. Join us to explore how “Safe” fits into AM I THE DRAMA?’s explosive, heartfelt story.
