While anticipation for Cardi B's second studio album continues to grow, the New York city rapper released her first solo single in over a year.The pulsating and provocative Hot S*** — featuring Kanye West and Lil Durk — officially dropped just after midnight on Friday.This is the Cardi's first new song since Up debuted at number two on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in February 2021. It would eventually hit the number one spot on the chart after her riveting performance at the 63rd Grammy Awards five weeks later.

Jem Aswad Senior Music EditorCardi B may not have released a ton of music in the past couple of years, but when she has, she’s made them count: Following “WAP,” her 2020 smash with Megan Thee Stallion, and last year’s “Up” comes “Hot Shit,” a truth-in-advertising new track featuring Kanye West and Lil Durk with a fiery beat from Memphis-born producer Tay Keith, who also co-produced Travis Scott’s “Sicko Mode” and Drake’s “Nonstop.”It’s a true collaborative single, with each rapper taking a verse and super-spare production — consisting almost entirely of vocals and beat, with the occasional sound effects — and in the hands of lesser rappers it wouldn’t be anywhere near as strong.
