    Thru Your Phone dona do álbum, porém há vários outros hinos. Se só o debut é esse hinário todo, imagina os próximos álbuns. VEM, CARDI, seu espaço e relevância na indústria musical já estão firmados.

    While Cardi will receive the hate she gets due to her personality and history she’s built up from over the years as a celebrity, this is a surprising and masterful debut.

Aside from possibly Rapsody, no other female rapper has been able to do what Cardi has in such a short amount of time. The confidence, bars and lyrics from Cardi are undeniable and will surprise anyone who thought this would be just another typical modern rap project with radio hits and party songs. A great album for sure and one that will leave anyone expecting anything less in awe… Expand

    One of the best debut albums I’ve heard in a while. No skips, just 13 tracks that show cohesiveness and versatility. Any song on the album can also be a hit, which is amazing to pull off without them not sounding cohesive. Cardi truly proved that she can put together a body of work. This album reflects her story and it was fascinating to look at.

    This is a stellar piece of art, Cardi B’s shines in this record. It makes me happy to see a genuine female rapper making an impact on hip hop. Nicki Minaj really soured female rap for a few years, it’s nice to see good music make a comeback.

    Invasion of Privacy embodies that tenacity and that relentlessness; plainspoken and raw, with just enough polish. Such a fighter’s spirit is endearing, and, to a certain extent, galvanizing. She took an unconventional path to get here, and yet everything seems to be going according to plan.

The order of the songs were great, you can tell the EFFORT put into it, and you can most definitely tell the authenticity behind it. This album broke and set records and without a doubt this just proves that Cardi is here to stay and that she's staying here for longer than 15 minutes honey!… Expand

    All this garbzies can't understand what if FEMALE RAP IS because their queen are more pop singer that rap singer. Absolutely qualitative female rap how it must be. Her reading, lyrics and production are very good. Get Up 10 is the one of the strongest rap-female songs I've ever heard. Cardi B does her best at Invasion of Privacy.

    I heard Bodak Yellow and wrote off teh rest of the album thinking it would be just generic trap rap. But it's not. It's really good, high quality hip hop album. Almost eery song is good. This album is worth is a listen if you like hip hop. It's proud and fierce and aggressive. Cardi B has arrived.

    I wanst expecting much from the album, as I also listened to the two previous mixtapes and did not like them. But, I can see so much quality on this album. There is a whole identity on it, and also the sound narrative is very good for me. There is just a very good flow, track by track. Love listening to Be Careful, Best Life and I Like It in a row.

    While some of the content of this album has been done before, Invasion of Privacy, while being the first Cardi B album excluding mixtapes, show's a lot of promise for the 25 year old rapper. Some of the songs seem to be fillers, but there are lots of solid tracks that help overcome those. All in all good album and I would recommend it

    No es mal debut, inclusive la colaboración con Bad Bunny es de las mejores canciones del álbum. El único defecto es que no convence lo suficiente, si bien es de las pocas mujeres raperas relevantes que hacen trap, no lo hace muy diferente al trabajo que haría FUTURE, Post Malone, Migos, etc.

Her cocky lyrics proved she didn't didn't give a f**k about what the haters have to say! She then dropped her next single 'Bartier Cardi' where she collaborated with multi-platinum certified rapper '21 Savage'. Again,I'm not surprised; not surprised at all.

She then dropped her next single 'Bartier Cardi' where she collaborated with multi-platinum certified rapper '21 Savage'. Again, another great club-style anthem! She had impressed me so far.

    A few months had passed, when all of a sudden the grammy-nominated artist dropped the news that she was releasing her debut album on April 6th. Along with that, she dropped her 90's inspired song 'Be Careful'. Despite the change and flow, I still adored the song. We had barely gotten over that song when she surprised released a new song 'Drip' featuring Migos. Despite this song sounding
    more like a 'Culture II' reject track, it was still an anthem. Cardi was yet to disappoint.

    The day had come. The album had dropped. After only one listen I had fallen in love. This album was a masterpiece. The lyrics, flow, production etc were all perfect. The featured artists (Migos, Chance The Rapper, Bad Bunny, J Balvin, Kehlani, 21 Savage, YG & SZA) all fit the album's aesthetic perfectly. I'm gonna go out on a limb here - Invasion Of Privacy is on the greatest debut albums of the 21st century. Cardi B proved her versatility in this album. She's on top of the rap game right now. I'm not going to be surprised if Cardi wins a Grammy award or two next year at the 61st Annual Grammy Awards. As of right now, she's definitely a big contender for Album of the Year.    … Expand

    Some of y'all stay mad. Cardi B oozes confidence on her long-awaited debut album, thriving amidst all the hype surrounding her. There's so much to appreciate on this record, from Cardi's clever, cutting lyricism, to her consistently impressive flow and delivery, to the balanced production.

There's so much to appreciate on this record, from Cardi's clever, cutting lyricism, to her consistently impressive flow and delivery, to the balanced production. The collaborations work well to complement her without overshadowing her presence; even when she shares the mic, Cardi is still the one commanding attention. What I must praise most highly, though, is how the Bronx rapper is willing to juxtapose vulnerability and insecurities ('Be Careful,' 'Ring,' 'Thru Your Phone') with an empowered, bad-bit*h persona. Such willingness presents a very nuanced portrait of Cardi B, and I'm incredibly excited to witness what she does next.

    Highlights include 'Bickenhead,' 'Bodak Yellow,' 'Be Careful,' and 'Bartier Cardi'.    … Expand

    I was expecting a rushed mess, but it's actually a pretty solid album. My favorite tracks are Bickenhead, Be Careful, Money Bag, and I Do. The only songs I don't like very much are I Like It and Best Life. Good album.

    Honestly wasn't expecting much from Cardi B when she announced that her debut album was going to be released on April 6th. However, the star-studded tracklist looked promising, and I decided to give the SZA-assisted track "I Do" a listen (which turned out to be absolute fire). Then I went for "Ring" with Kehlani, and i absolutely loved it too. Somehow, I ended up playing the whole record.Honestly wasn't expecting much from Cardi B when she announced that her debut album was going to be released on April 6th.

Then I went for "Ring" with Kehlani, and i absolutely loved it too. Somehow, I ended up playing the whole record. Let's just say that there are no filler tracks on here. The collaborations are absolutely on point ("Best Life" with Chance is sure to be a hit if given the right single treatment), and the solo tracks are no different, seeing that Cardi carries them all out tirelessly by herself.
    All of the songs prove that, indeed, the Bronx rapper can spit bars, and her flow goes hard from one track to another; some songs even see her ditch the urban hardcore sound of "Bodak Yellow" and "Bartier Cardi" to rely on an easier, more lay-back sound on "Be Careful" for example. "Thru Your Phone", another highlight, is an absolute bop, with Cardi singing the hook so sentimentally, and opener "Get Up 10" has the most personal and hardcore rap verses Cardi has ever gone for, giving "All Things Go" by Nicki Minaj a run for its money.
    However, some tracks fall short here and there: "Drip" feels like a full-on Migos song, "She Bad" with YG has the worst hook on the record, and "I Like It" would've been way better without the collabs on it.
    With all its ups and downs, "Invasion of Privacy" is undeniably a confident solid debut LP.    … Expand

    I did not hear an album like that since "The New Classic" by Iggy Azalea. The work is fantastic, well done and well crafted.

    THIS ALBUM IS A HIT! Despite the fact that she exceeded expectations, she showed a series of versatility with songs like "Thru Your Phone" and "I Like It". She also had really great features on the album and that is why this album will stick like white on rice.

    The 2018 cultural zeitgeist is back with a monster album that encompasses the entire social media spectrum. Through it's 13-anthematic tracks, Cardi skids and skips through various 808s that process through the mind like arsenals. The all encompasing Cardi skirts over the future like she dodging bullets.

    CardiB en su álbum debut demuestra su autoempoderamiento y furia trap; Invasion of privacy destaca y toma el trono justificando porque ella es la diva del Bronx.

    Gostei do álbum, os hooks estão muito bom, a produção do álbum é muito boa. As rimas são inteligentes e engraçadas em alguns momentos. As participações no álbum são muito boas acrescentam muito nas musicas como Thru Your Phone, I Do e Ring. Recomendo o álbum inteiro.

    Cardi B is merely the latest to appear into the mainstream, a position she is sure to occupy for some time, and with enough potential showing on her debut release to give hope to anyone listening that she can only get better from here.

    Invasion of Privacy is filled with carefully crafted tracks which ably show her many sides. Cardi B knows who she is and where she came from and she isn’t trying to hide it from anyone.

    Invasion of Privacy is a cohesive piece of work that demands to be heard in full, from front to back, side to side, on the pole and on the stove.
