The "Bongos" star wasn't too detailed in her message, but she let fans know that they'll get to see her live soon enough.

Cardi B's promo appearances for her new Megan Thee Stallion collab single "Bongos" has been absolutely relentless so far. Her latest appearance, on Andy Cohen's show Watch What Happens Live, also gave fans some insight into her next career moves. Moreover, the Bronx artist answered some of Cohen's questions about the timeline of her new album, her sophomore effort, and its supporting tour. First things first: unfortunately, Bardi season won't kick off in full force with an LP until next year. However, at least she confirmed that there will, in fact, be a big tour after her project comes out.

Other than that, she didn't offer too many details, but she came through with the fun and vibrant content and persona that we know her for. For example, when asked by Andy Cohen what her Real Housewives tagline would be, the 30-year-old couldn't help but reference a big controversy she faced earlier this year. "The only thing I throw harder than mics is shade," Cardi B said to the camera with a laugh. What do you think, folks: is she getting an invite anytime soon?

Jokes aside, the "Up" hitmaker also answered a question about a long-rumored and awaited collaboration: Lil Kim. "I really do want one," Cardi B remarked. "I’m going through the songs on my album right now… I want us to have such a great, undeniable song because I know people are going to judge it and be so harsh of it. So, I want to make sure it is the greatest song. But I would love, love, love to do a song with Lil Kim. I love her. And not because she’s Lil Kim, but because she’s such a nice person."
