Cardi B's kicking off "Invasion Of Privacy" campaign on a big note.

Cardi B season has officially arrived with her debut album, Invasion Of Privacy, set to hit stores this Friday. She made the announcement last week and followed it with the release of her latest single, "Be Careful." After dropping the long-awaited "Bartier Cardi" video last night, she's now announced as the first ever co-host on Jimmy Fallon's "Tonight Show."

A few days after dropping her debut album, Cardi B will join Jimmy Fallon as the on "The Tonight Show" this Monday, April 9th, AP reports. This marks the first time the "Tonight Show" has ever  had a co-host on their show in the history of their broadcasting. Cardi will sit alongside Jimmy Fallon to ask the guests questions and also take to the stage that evening. They've yet to announce who the other guests will be that evening but it's safe to say with Cardi B as a co-host, it'll be one of the most memorable interviews they'll have.

This also marks Cardi B's third time on Jimmy Fallon's tonight show. She initially hit the stage with G-Eazy to perform "No Limit" and a few months later, sat down with Fallon after the release of "Bartier Cardi."

Cardi B's is about to have a incredibly busy few days following the release of Invasion Of Privacy. She'll be taking to "Saturday Night Live" this weekend as the musical guest while Chadwick Boseman holds down the hosting side.
