The music video is the second release from ‘Am I The Drama?’
Cardi B and Kehlani have brought their collab “Safe” to life, turning the standout track from Cardi’s sophomore album Am I The Drama? into a cinematic moment. In the music video, the “Up” rapper and “Folded” songstress tap into their inner TLC, recreating the iconic “Creep” scene with silky matching pajamas and a playful dance routine.
The clip opens with Cardi and Kehlani moving in sync as she delivers the hook: “I don’t need a rich ni**a, just somebody that can make me feel, safe/ I dealt with a couple ni**as, but nobody ever made me feel, safe like you/ ’Cause when I’m with you, I just know I’m fine/ You take all the pressure off my mind (all the time)” — with Kehlani echoing “safe” in the background.
As the storyline unfolds, Cardi takes on the role of a pregnant girlfriend to her on-screen partner. Their romance quickly turns dark after a heated argument between the two sends roses crashing to the floor and Williams storming out the door. Moments later, tragedy strikes when a gangster shows up at Cardi’s door and fatally shoots her.
Williams’ character returns home only to be distraught by the bloody aftermath. Watch below.
“Safe” featuring Kehlani hails from Am I The Drama? which dropped today (Sept. 19). Standing at 23 tracks, the project features a star-studded lineup including everyone from Lizzo to R&B/Pop icon Janet Jackson.
The LP has standouts like “Dead” and “Shower Tears,” both featuring Summer Walker, the aformentioned “Safe” with Kehlani, “Better Than You” with Cash Cobain, and “Nice Guy” with Tyla. In addition to “Safe,” the collaborative track “Principal” with Janet Jackson is another crowd favorite especially for the simple fact that Cardi was able to secure the “Pleasure Principle” icon, herself.
AITD also has cuts like the circulating songs, “Bodega Baddie” and “Imaginary Playerz,” as well as interesting titles like “Man of Your Word,” which could be an ode to her divorce with Offset, and the return of “WAP” featuring Megan Thee Stallion.
To further push the album, Cardi B announced her first-ever headlining Little Miss Drama Tour kicking off post-pregnancy in February and running through April 2026. She will be hitting the major cities like Los Angeles, New York, Chicago, Toronto, Atlanta, and others.
Cardi hopped on X to remind her fans that she’s locked in, although expecting baby No. 4. “Album drops Friday! Thank you everybody for the love and support…by the time tour comes I’ll be doing splits, somersaults backflips and handstands,” she wrote. “I want this really bad and I’m on a very strict plan.. trust me I’m determined to give my fans the best album AND tour experience!!”
“I owe this to myself, and I owe this to my past. They’ve been waiting for such a long time. I know we don’t live for the fans, but I owe this to y’all,” she added.
