Cardi B wants to dominate music by elevating her dance moves.

On Monday (July 21), the Grammy winner posted a video explaining that she'll soon be taking two dance classes to "loosen" herself up in preparation of releasing her long-awaited sophomore album, Am I the Drama?

"I really noticed that I really have no rhythm. Like, I almost lost my rhythm. Practically lost my rhythm," she said, adding that she plans to take "one hour of salsa."

Along with learning how to dance, Cardi showed interest in taking a cooking class, both which will take up "three hours" in a normal day for the Bronx native.

Cardi added that since she's not "in the studio like that anymore," that she'll devote each week to "album-related stuff" until Drama releases on September 19.

The rapper, who's separated from her husband of eight years, Offset, was most recently dating New England Patriots player Stefon Diggs, who once considered taking up bachata classes to dance with Cardi.

According to Hot 97, in a since-deleted post from June, the athlete posted an Instagram carousel from an event he attended with Cardi, with one video showing two newlyweds on the dance floor.

"It’s the newlyweds dancing bachata for me," Cardi commented.

"Necesito aprender," Diggs replied, which translates to "I need to learn" in Spanish.
