Many individuals set personal goals for the New Year, such as shedding a few extra pounds, abstaining from alcohol for a month, greeting a stranger daily, or finally planning that dream trip to Hawaii. However, Cardi B has a different approach to her New Year’s resolutions. The talented rapper, known for her hit song “Bongos,” took to Instagram Live on Sunday (November 24) to make it clear that 2025 is the year she will no longer tolerate nonsense from anyone. Her assertive message resonated with fans and followers who appreciate her candidness and determination to stand her ground.

In a candid moment captured by fans, Cardi shared that she and her friends are diligently crafting their New Year’s goals, plans, and affirmations. She made it clear that she is serious about her intentions and is not going to let anyone disrupt her focus. “I’m telling you right motherf–king now, every n–ga or a b–ch that motherf–kin’ play with me in 2024? I’m letting you know right now… y’all better apologize to me today!” Cardi expressed passionately during the live stream while appearing relaxed in her pajamas. Her bold declaration reflects her commitment to personal growth and resilience in the face of challenges.

Cardi elaborated on her unwavering determination, stating, “Because you wanna know what? You wanna know why? Because next year… as soon as… you know everybody always say this every New Year’s, but this time I’m standing on it.” She emphasized that as soon as the clock strikes midnight, she intends to hit the reset button on her life. “You hear me? I’m hitting the motherf–king reset button,” she declared, showcasing her readiness to embrace change and eliminate negativity from her life. This powerful assertion resonates with many who seek to start fresh each year, underscoring the importance of self-empowerment and accountability.

Cardi B went on to clarify the extent of her intended reset. “I’m hitting the f–king reset button. I’m whipping everybody’s ass with a we belt,” she warned, underscoring her frustration and determination. “I’m sick of f–king everybody. I’m telling you, next year I’m not taking f–king nothing.” Although she did not specify the individuals she is addressing, she mentioned that a “whole bunch” of issues had arisen this year that disrupted her plans for 2024. This level of honesty and raw emotion reflects the challenges that come with fame and personal trials, making her relatable to her audience.

After mapping out her music projects and preparing for various endeavors in early 2024, Cardi humorously recalled how life had other plans. “God was like, ‘not so fast. I’m sending you a f–king baby!’” she remarked, referring to her baby daughter born in early September. This joyful revelation came shortly after she filed for divorce from Migos MC Offset, with whom she shares two other children. Cardi expressed her love for her newborn, calling her “so f–kin beautiful… and she’s my bestie.” Her heartfelt words reveal her deep connection to her family and the joy that motherhood brings her, even amidst life’s challenges.

Throughout 2024, Cardi has been teasing her long-awaited sophomore album. In a recent Instagram livestream, she shared her excitement, stating that she’s “wilding out lately” but is committed to “getting [her] f–-king life together.” Cardi confidently declared, “I have so much things coming next year,” indicating her readiness to take on new projects. “I know next year is gonna be my f–-king year,” she asserted, revealing her ambitious plans for the future. Among her goals for 2025 is the release of her yet-to-be-titled follow-up to her critically acclaimed debut album, Invasion of Privacy, as well as finding “a little boyfriend.”

In October, Cardi excitedly informed her fans that her second full-length studio album is “coming really, really soon,” confirming her active work in the studio. This announcement has generated significant anticipation among her followers, eager to hear what she has in store for them in the upcoming year. As she gears up for a transformative 2025, expectations are high for Cardi B as she continues to evolve as an artist and a person.
