Doja Cat: Last News

Doja Cat to next-level stardom — earning her a Grammy Album of the Year nomination and a win for the SZA-assisted “Kiss Me More” — it almost set her up for the sophomore slump, even though it was her third LP.But the 27-year-old rapper and singer — born Amala Ratna Zandile Dlamini — had already avoided that before her fourth album, “Scarlet,” dropped on Friday. She hit No.

Doja Cat's new album Scarlet is finally here. The fourth album from the pop star born Amala Zandile Dlamini arrives after a bumpy, fascinating, yet undeniable successful months-long promo campaign: Doja successfully alienated hundreds of thousands of fans for refusing to say that she loved them, yet scored a No.

Doja Cat has responded to criticism of her album artwork for ‘Scarlet’, saying she doesn’t care about “satisfying” her fans.The album, which was released today (September 22), was announced last month with artwork that many saw as identical to German metal band Chaver‘s new album ‘Of Gloom’, also out today.Doja Cat then shared a new and markedly different album cover by the same artist, and told one fan on X/Twitter: “The art I chose for my album is beautiful and I like it a lot. The two spiders signify conquering your fear.“None of my album covers had meaning until this album.

Doja Cat‘s new album Scarlet is out now and she took to Twitter just hours before its release to defend the artwork.

Doja Cat will release her eagerly-anticipated new album Scarlet next week, September 22, and has already teased her fans (not for the first time) with the singles "Attention," "Demons," and the Hot 100-topping "Paint The Town Red." Today she has shared what is presumably the final release before the album, a song titled "Balut." It's another song in which Doja is in her rap bag, spitting lines like "I’m the shit, you a real piece of shit/ I am needed, you a real needy bitch," over a minimal but crisp beat. It's safe to say, at this point, that you can probably wave goodbye to the idea of a German rave album for the time being.

that’s how to make mo money.Lil Wayne has been around longer enough to now have elder-statesman status at 40. And in honor of the 50th anniversary of hip-hop, it’s fitting that a rapper would open this year’s VMAs.But “Uproar” — a relatively minor hit from 2018’s “Tha Carter V” — and the new single “Kat Food” didn’t exactly take us back to the classic Weezy vibeology of “A Milli” (which he did return to perform in the hip-hop finale) and “Lollipop.”Thankfully, Olivia Rodrigo — who, 20 years younger than Wayne, would have made more sense as the opener in 2023 — swooped in to help save the opener in the end with “Vampire” and “Get Back.”Two years ago, Doja Cat hosted and performed at the VMAs back when she seemed a little green to be pulling double duty.

blasted her fanbase for failing to see her as a “real” person — sparked a social media brouhaha with her saucy ensembles, seeing fans tweet, “when it comes to style and branding [she] is UNMATCHED!”“How doja ate the girls up in a knitted dress omg,” another impressed fanatic. But not everyone was wowed by the ultra sexy look.

Doja Cat brought three songs from her upcoming album ‘Scarlet’ to the 2023 MTV VMAs, which is taking place in New Jersey tonight (September 12).The rapper began her performance from the crowd at Newark’s Prudential Center, opening her short set with ‘Attention’.

Taylor Swift, Doja Cat and SZA lead the nominations.Swift went into the night with eight nominations, including Video Of The Year, Song Of The Year, Best Pop, Best Direction, Best Cinematography, Best Visual Effects, and Best Editing for ‘Anti-Hero’. She is also in the running for Artist Of The Year.SZA has got six nods in this year’s shortlist, while Doja Cat, Kim Petras, Miley Cyrus, Nicki Minaj, Olivia Rodrigo and Sam Smith have earned five nominations each.Performances at the ceremony will come from Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion, Demi Lovato, Diddy, Doja Cat, Fall Out Boy, Karol G, Lil Wayne, Måneskin, Nicki Minaj, Sabrina Carpenter, Stray Kids, Tomorrow X Together and Anitta, and more.

Doja Cat has said that seeing large numbers of people unfollow her on social media has allowed her to feel “free”.The LA rapper and singer reportedly lost around 500,000 followers on Instagram over the last few weeks, after she branded her fans “creepy” for labelling themselves with the fandom name ‘Kittenz’.In a series of since-deleted tweets, the star wrote: “My fans don’t get to name themselves shit. If you call yourself a ‘kitten’ or fucking ‘kittenz’ that means you need to get off your phone and get a job and help your parents with the house.”Several fan accounts were reportedly deactivated after, before she started to lose followers in their hundreds of thousands.Now, Doja Cat has responded to the unfollowing spree, which has currently left her at 25.1million Instagram followers.“Seeing all these people unfollow makes me feel like I’ve defeated a large beast that’s been holding me down for so long,” she wrote on her Instagram story, “and it feels like I can reconnect with people who really matter and love me for who i am and not for who i was.”She added: “I feel free.”After the singer posted her initial tweets, one fan pointed out the apparent hypocrisy, reminding the musician that she was the one who came up with the term ‘kittenz’.

Doja Cat is doubling down on her recent comments about her fans. She’s always been vocal about her unease in the music industry, but in recent months, she’s gone after her fanbase, calling her pop albums “cash grabs” and slamming her stans for calling themselves “kittenz” (a name she herself suggested).

“Woman.”When asked recently why she thinks people “go crazy” over her seemingly outrageous antics, singer/rapper Doja Cat suggested perhaps they don’t see her as a “real” human being. “My theory is that if someone has never met me in real life, then, subconsciously, I’m not real to them,” the “Need to Know” hitmaker said in a new Harper’s Bazaar cover story. “So when people become engaged with someone they don’t even know on the internet, they kind of take ownership over that person.“They think that person belongs to them in some sense.
