Cardi B just turned an album launch into a world record.
The rapper made history in Dallas-Fort Worth, Texas, when 176 signed copies of her new album Am I the Drama? were delivered to fans by drones in under an hour. The feat, verified by Guinness World Records, was pulled off through a partnership with Atlantic Records, Walmart, and drone-delivery company Wing.
The futuristic rollout gave selected fans a chance to receive limited-edition albums at their doorstep, blending tech innovation with music promotion.
Industry watchers say the stunt highlights how artists are pushing beyond streaming platforms to stand out. In an era dominated by Spotify and Apple Music, physical drops, especially ones wrapped in spectacle, create buzz, exclusivity, and media coverage that digital releases alone can’t match.
For music, it’s a reminder that creativity doesn’t stop at the studio. For technology, it’s another sign that drone delivery is moving from novelty to mainstream; one chart-topping flight at a time.
