Cardi B Vows to Abstain from Sex and Dating to Focus on New Album: “I’m Being Tested”
Cardi B has set a bold new resolution for 2025: staying away from dating and sex—at least for the month of January.
Over the weekend, the Bronx-born superstar took to social media to share that January is a “critical month” for her, and she’s determined to eliminate distractions, even if it means pressing pause on her love life.
The Decision to Focus
“I don’t even want to have sex right now because every time I do, I get distracted. I don’t want to be distracted,” Cardi explained.
She emphasized her determination by adding, “I’m taking a little break from my dating life because January is very, very, very, very important, and I have a mission to accomplish. If I don’t get this done, it will mess up my entire schedule for the year.”
The “Bodak Yellow” rapper admitted that only a few days into the new year, “I already feel like I’m being tested.” But she’s holding firm to her resolve, expressing pride in her ability to stay on track.
“I’m very proud of myself,” she said confidently.
Emotional Investment and Distractions
Cardi opened up about why this self-imposed break is necessary, explaining that her emotional nature tends to take over when she’s in a relationship. This often spills over into her creative process and productivity.
“I’m a very emotional person, and when I’m emotional, I don’t do things with love,” she revealed. “You can hear it in my music—my voice breaks. You can see it on my face when I’m working. I can’t thrive when I’m in my feelings.”
She even joked about how deeply she gets invested in communication, saying, “I don’t even want to entertain guys right now because if I text you and you don’t reply in 30 minutes, I’m pissed. Then I’m mad at you for two hours, and now I’m distracted. So, I’m just not entertaining any guys until my work is done.”
A Test of Willpower
Cardi’s candid admission is a testament to her dedication to her craft and her willingness to make sacrifices to reach her goals. Fans have rallied around her resolve, praising her for putting her art first.
As she focuses on her highly anticipated new album, Cardi’s determination is clear: distractions, whether emotional or romantic, have no place in her January agenda.
Meanwhile, Offset Sparks Rumors
In related news, Cardi’s ex-partner Offset has been making headlines of his own. The former Migos rapper was recently spotted shopping with a new woman in Dubai following their bitter split.
Offset was seen with Melanie Jayda, an Atlanta-based model, at a high-end Chanel boutique in the Middle Eastern hotspot. The rumored couple reportedly splurged up to $100,000 on luxury items during their shopping spree.
The pair also celebrated New Year’s Eve together in Dubai, where Offset was invited to perform his hit song “Ric Flair Drip.”
As Cardi focuses on her personal growth and professional milestones, the world watches eagerly to see how her dedication will shape her music and career in the months ahead. For fans, her decision to put her art above all else promises an exciting new chapter—and maybe even the album of the year.
