She gained some significant attention with her early releases, but it was her 2019 sophomore effort, Hot Pink, that took her to the top of the Hot 100. Subsequent charting singles and collaborations with SZA and Saweetie further solidified her star power, and made the arrival of her 2021 album Planet Her all the more hotly anticipated. A number two Billboard 200 hit, Planet Her also earned several Grammy nominations. Singles followed, including her savvy 2022 cover of Hole's "Celebrity Skin" 2022's "Vegas" off the Elvis soundtrack, and 2023's trip-hop-inflected "Attention" all of which spotlighted Doja's adventurous, genre-crossing sensibilities. The latter track and "Paint the Town Red" appeared on her fourth album, 2023's Scarlet, which found her digging deep into her rap and hip-hop roots and became her third consecutive album to hit the Top Ten of the Billboard 200. Doja Cat was born Amala Zandile Dlamini in 1995 in Tarzana, California, the daughter of South African actor Dumisani Dlamini and painter Deborah Elizabeth Sawyer. After moving to New York for a few years, she returned to California with her mother. As a child, she studied piano and took tap, ballet, and jazz dance lessons. She also discovered surfing and breakdancing. By her teens, she was teaching herself to sing and listening to an eclectic mix of hip-hop, indie rock, R&B, and electronic music. Doja also began recording songs on her computer and in 2014 released her debut EP, Purrr! She quickly found herself with a viral hit with the track "So High" More singles followed, including the languid "Nunchucks" and "No Police" each one grabbing attention online. Another single, "Mooo!" arrived in 2018 and quickly went viral. On the heels of that success, Doja Cat issued her full-length debut album, Amala, which found her expanding upon her dreamy, meme-friendly sound with more hip-hop-, pop-, and R&B-infused tracks, including "Candy" and "Roll with Us" In 2019, she issued an expanded version of Amala that added the singles "Juicy" and "Tia Tamera" featuring Rico Nasty. Her sophomore album, Hot Pink, was quick to follow; with features from Smino, Gucci Mane, and Tyga, the 2019 LP leaned more into the sexually wry aspects of her ever-shifting persona. A Top Ten hit on the Billboard 200, the album's fifth single, "Say So" pushed her even further up the charts. After making a steady rise in the Hot 100 at the start of 2020, the multi-platinum track finally hit number one in May, boosted by a Nicki Minaj remix. After picking up a couple of American Music Awards, Doja carried the momentum from her breakout year into 2021. She began appearing alongside established celebrities more frequently, adding a guest feature to Saweetie's single "Best Friend" contributing to an Ariana Grande remix with Megan Thee Stallion, and releasing the SZA-assisted single "Kiss Me More" All of this led up to the June 2021 release of her third full-length studio album, Planet Her. It featured guest spots from Young Thug, The Weeknd, JID, and others, and its cover art was shot by photographer David LaChapelle. The album, which reached number two on the Billboard 200 and topped the R&B albums chart, also garnered Grammy nominations for Album of the Year and Best Pop Vocal Album. In February 2022, Doja hit number 18 on the Hot Rock & Alternative Songs chart with a cover of Hole's "Celebrity Skin" which featured lyrics reworked by her and Courtney Love. That same year, she reached the Top Ten of the Hot 100 with "Vegas" her contribution to the soundtrack to director Baz Luhrmann's Elvis biopic. In June 2023, she debuted the '90s trip-hop-inspired "Attention" as the first track released off her fourth studio album, Scarlet. Another song, "Paint the Town Red" followed that August as the official first single. Arriving that September, the album found Doja balancing her pop-R&B style with tracks that embraced her rap and hip-hop roots. It featured production by a handful of artists, including Earl on the Beat, D.A. Got That Dope, and Y2K, among others. A Top Five album on both the Billboard 200 and Rap Albums charts, Scarlet also earned several Grammy nominations, including Best Pop Solo Performance for "Paint the Town Red" and Best Rap Song for "Attention"

Let the waves carry you down to my doorstep
Rest your weary souls on my shores, yeah
Sand and the sun and the tropical breeze, yeah
You can get away from the sharks in the seas, yeah

Wyl' around, take a name
Stars is out, freaky time
Sink your ship, take a dip
Coconut, take a sip

Wear my gold like a crown
Where we've been, given doubt

Can't you see you're drowning
Tryna tame a wild beast

Dishoom chica with the neon coat
Got a vision of the sun, I just see more gold and

Her music tbh is freaking amazing, it's absolutely stunning but what's supprising is how underrated she is, she deserves more recognition for her other songs. ๐Ÿฅบโค๏ธ๐Ÿ’ซ

Real doja fans know this really THE album. Every artist has one piece they can never recreate because they will never be that person again. You can hear the potential like crazy and this song is already amazing.

@BedazzledChanclas

Donโ€™t forget about Purr now ๐Ÿ‘€๐Ÿ‘€

@sheridan7475

Sheโ€™s still that person sheโ€™s just building off of it ๐Ÿงš๐Ÿปโ€โ™€๏ธ

@jayyscales2236

purr is something so euphoric tho too. when she recently mentioned fans going crazy for hot pink and planet her, she did not mention amala and purr because I believe that was her natural, most authentic stages. she did hot pink and planet her because the label wanted her to sell more hits which it did but it probably wasn't what she truly wanted for herself.

@halmittens

literally, used to listen to casual a lot

@aestheticqueen15
