'Seven years and the time has come. Seven years of love, life and loss. Seven years I gave them grace, but now, I give them hell. I learned power is not given, it's taken," she says in a voiceover accompanying the video. "I'm shedding feathers and no more tears. I'm not back, I'm beyond. I'm not your villain, I'm your tyrant. The time is here. The time is now.'
According to Variety, Cardi B premiered "Outside," a new track during a performance at Cannes Lions, a five-day International Festival of Creativity in Cannes, France, last week. The song includes a dig at ex-husband Offset and name-drops her new beau New England Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs.
Cardi also performed hits songs from eras past, including "Bongos," "Up," "Money," "Bodak Yellow," "I Like It," and "Wap" in Cannes, per Variety.
"Outside," "Up," and "WAP" featuring Megan Thee Stallion are three of the twenty-three songs listed on the album's "tracklist preview" on Spotify.
The announcement comes nearly a decade after the release of her debut album "Invasion of Privacy," which included hits like "Bodak Yellow" and "I Like It."
The 32-year-old musician, born Belcalis Marlenis Almánzar, became the first solo female rapper to win a Grammy Award for best rap album in 2019.

Jake Paul furiously quits Piers Morgan interview after fat-shaming host
Jake Paul let his emotions get the best of him during Thursday's interview with Piers Morgan, ultimately storming off the virtual call in anger. The YouTuber-turned-professional boxer, 28, spoke with the British host on Piers Morgan Uncensored ahead of his Saturday bout against Julio César Chávez Jr. In a teaser clip of the interview shared on YouTube, Morgan, 60, appeared to goad Paul by suggesting that the only 'proper boxer' he's ever fought was Tommy Fury — 'and he beat you.' 'I think the problem here, Piers, is that you think your opinion matters,' Paul hit back. Piers further argued that had Paul fought Mike Tyson in his prime, he wouldn't have 'lasted 10 seconds.' 'This is not a joke. I'm knocking out the best of the best,' the influencer argued, before fat-shaming Piers, saying: 'You versus going to the gym. You're still a fatass.' 'I mean, [Mexican boxer] Canelo Álvarez says that he would potentially kill you,' Piers added. Paul responded angrily, calling Álvarez, 34, a '5'8 little peon.' 'People don't realize I'm a real killer. I really f***ing do this s***,' he said. Elsewhere in the full-length interview, Piers admitted that he thought Paul was 'a great influencer and great YouTuber,' but questioned Paul's abilities in the ring. "You're still a fat ass!"Jake Paul fat-shames Piers Morgan before rage quitting his interview in tonight's Uncensored - dropping at 10pm (5pm ET).SUBSCRIBE: | @jakepaul — Piers Morgan Uncensored (@PiersUncensored) June 26, 2025 Paul didn't take the criticism well, telling off Piers. 'Oh, I'm just taking your audience to sell pay-per-views. I don't give a f*** about your show, dumbass,' he said in exasperation. 'This is a f***ing business enterprise. Buy the pay per view on Saturday, June 28, me versus Julio César Chávez Jr. Thank you, tune in everybody!' Once Paul hung up on the call, Piers said: 'Cheers Jake, really enjoyed that, and good luck to Julio – knock him out for all of us, will you?' Paul's fight with Chávez Jr. marks his first of the year. The match comes seven months after he defeated Tyson, 58, by a unanimous decision. Should he beat Chávez Jr., he could very well earn a ranking, Mauricio Sulaiman, chairman of the World Boxing Council, told Action Network this week. 'We do have a rankings committee, but I believe he has done enough. He has received all the backlash for several years; if he beats Julio César Chávez Jr., I think that puts him in a different position,' Sulaiman said.

Liam Payne's Sister Shares Heartbreaking Reaction To Seeing His Final TV Appearance
The sister of late singer Liam Payne is sharing her grief as the release of her brother's final television project draws near. Payne will appear as a celebrity judge on Netflix's 'Building the Band,' set for release July 9. The former One Direction member is joined on the musical competition series by fellow pop stars Kelly Rowland and Nicole Scherzinger, while AJ McLean of the Backstreet Boys serves as the show's host. On Wednesday, Payne's sister Ruth Gibbins admitted she was 'heartbroken' after viewing the 'Building the Band' trailer. 'I didn't know whether to share this, but it felt weird when I've raved about Liam's work and achievements for the last 15 years,' she wrote on her Instagram Stories. 'Im heartbroken he never got to see how great he is in this show. He knew he had done a good job, we all told him this when we were at filming, but watching it back, wow!' Watch the trailer for Netflix's 'Building the Band' below. She went on to note: 'You're a star Liam, you always were and always will be. There are a range of emotions I felt watching this, but one of the main ones is immeasurable pride, always. Miss you more every day.' Netflix had initially been unsure of how to proceed with the release of 'Building the Band,' which was filmed shortly before Payne's death last year at age 31. In a press release sent to HuffPost, the streaming network said Payne's family had 'reviewed the series and is supportive of his inclusion.' Payne died Oct. 16 after falling from a hotel balcony in Buenos Aires, Argentina. A toxicology report later concluded that the singer had multiple substances in his system at the time of his death, including cocaine, crack cocaine and benzodiazepines. The report also indicated the presence of 'pink cocaine,' which refers to a cocktail of drugs that can include substances like ketamine, MDMA, methamphetamine and sometimes caffeine or opioids. 'Building the Band' will mark an on-screen reunion between Payne and Scherzinger, who is credited alongside record executive and TV personality Simon Cowell with the formation of One Direction in 2010. Scherzinger, who earlier this month nabbed a Tony Award for her performance in Broadway's 'Sunset Boulevard,' had reportedly been exchanging texts with Payne on the morning of his death.

New Trailer for Ari Aster's EDDINGTON - "We Are in a Fight Against Evil" — GeekTyrant
A24 has released a new trailer for director Ari Aster's new film Eddington , and it offers more footage from the film and insight into the story and the characters that fill it. This intense-looking movie is described as a modern Western set during the COVID pandemic. In the film, 'A standoff between a small-town sheriff (Joaquin Phoenix) and mayor (Pedro Pascal) sparks a powder keg as neighbor is pitted against neighbor in Eddington, New Mexico.' As you'll see there's a lot of tension building in this small town and it looks like it's going to escalate into complete violent insanity. Phoenix and Pascal are joined by Austin Butler, Emma Stone, Luke Grimes, Deirdre O'Connell, Micheal Ward, Amélie Hoeferle, Clifton Collins Jr. and William Belleau. When talking about working with Phoenix, Aster said: 'Having now worked with him, I understand why he is so reluctant to jump onto anything — because he really puts all of himself into whatever he's doing. The way that he challenges the material — not in a gratuitous way or in a way that's a pain in the ass. 'The question usually amounts to 'Is there anything we haven't considered here?' I realized that it's something that I was really wanting from an actor, and now I can't imagine making a film without him.' Eddington is set to open in competition at Cannes. It will be released in the US on July 18.
