Cardi B's Courtroom Clash Heats as New Single "Enough (Miami)" Drops Friday

The Bronx rap star Cardi B is officially going to court after a Texas federal judge decided that a copyright infringement action related to her 2024 song "Enough (Miami)" can proceed. In the suit, filed by producers Joshua Fraustro and Miguel Aguilar, who perform under Kemika1956, the duo accuses Cardi of bitin' the beat to their early track "Greasy Frybread" for her fiery anthem.

If "Greasy Frybread" sounds familiar, that song was featured in FX's critically acclaimed series Reservation Dogs and even uploaded to YouTube before "Enough" had ever graced streaming services. Now, the plaintiffs are going after Cardi B and against OG Parker and DJ SwanQo as song producers, in addition to Atlantic Records and Warner Music Group.

And they're not just playing small. The suit is seeking damages, an immediate halt to any further distribution of "Enough," and could go so far as to call for the destruction of every copy currently floating around. And that's not just court talk but a direct riposte at a song that helped create buzz around Cardi's long-delayed sophomore album.

Cardi's legal team, of course, tried to squash this, insisting the two songs aren't the same in any significant way. But U.S. District Judge Fred Biery didn't have it. In his decision, he wrote that the plaintiffs had provided enough facts to allege a copyright infringement claim, allowing the lawsuit to proceed.

The timing couldn't be more dramatic. In the wake of the judge's decision, Cardi has announced that she'll be releasing her first solo single of the year", "Outside," just days from now on Friday, June 20, 2025. The track, which Charlie Heat and HeyMicki produced, is shaping up to be a lyrical deep dive into her split from Offset and the swirl of rumors about her rumored relationship with NFL player Stefon Diggs.

Cardi initially teased "Outside" when she hopped on Instagram Live earlier this year, and fans have been oohing and aahing since. It's sure to contain that raw, unfiltered energy she's become known for and probably more questions about what is going on behind those cryptic social posts.

In the meantime, work for her sophomore(allegedly) album is locked and loaded, and we are awaiting only the final touches of some yet-to-be-confirmed features. No title. No release date. All hype, heat, and legal gantlets now.

So, what's next for Cardi B? She has a docket at a courthouse, a new one dropping on Friday, and an album waiting in the wings. Whether going bar for bar in the booth or blow for blow in a courtroom, she's always come out swinging.
