Doja hasn’t so much dodged questions about him as much as flatly refused to address it. While most artists have steered clear of his production, he had a significant involvement in Hot Pink under the pseudonym Tyson Trax.
Luke, AKA Lukasz Gottwald, his first significant hit since Kesha’s accusations. You can take 30 seconds from many of the songs and be rewarded with a quotable lyric or noteworthy beat. She switched up flows effortlessly delivering creamy vocals before cutting to punchy bars. She capitalised on that success with her second record Hot Pink - an assured LP that bridged the gap between popstar and rapper without identifying her as exclusively one or the other. ‘Juicy’, from the deluxe version of Amala, became her first real hit as a dance challenge went viral. Her bouncy, vibrant production coupled with her accentuated, colourful lyrics owed itself perfectly to TikTok and accidentally set the blueprint for the app’s favourite music. Long before Doja was populating the app with absurdist content, users were beginning to use her music for dance challenges. It wasn’t until ‘Tia Tamera’ that the apps true potential started to be unlocked. ‘Mooo!’ proved that Doja had what the internet wanted, but TikTok was still in its infancy then.
She released the deluxe edition of Amala led by the Rico Nasty-featuring ‘Tia Tamera’. Instead of disappearing, Doja pushed forward. In true Kanye West fashion, if you don’t acknowledge being cancelled you can’t really be cancelled. The internet rarely forgets, but it does get distracted. More backlash led to a Notes apology but it was deleted the next morning as she cleared her whole Twitter. Doja was over, and she solidified that with her ill-conceived response of, “Lmfaooooooo,” followed by more F-slurs. In 2015, she had used the F-slur against Tyler, The Creator and Earl Sweatshirt in a tweet. As is common practice now when an artist is on the rise, her social media was trawled for any wrongdoings - and she was quickly called out. “Nobody cared about me this way two weeks ago,” Doja told Dazed.Īccording to Billboard, it was at this point that the label started paying attention to her.īefore ‘Mooo!’ could even reach streaming services, however, Doja had faced the wrath of the internet. In two weeks, the song gained nine million views on YouTube. It’s nonsensical and yet endearing - a bizarre capsule of meme culture and surrealist humour. “Bitch, I’m a cow,” she declares in the song, shoving fries up her nose for the visual. Doja, donning a cow suit, a milkshake and fries, took to Instagram Live to write the song with 60 viewers. It wasn’t until a novelty song called ‘Mooo!’ that people began to pay attention.
You couldn’t simply rap without a label when competing as a female rapper was such a headline.
A rapper? An R&B star? A pop artist? Clearly now, a genre label for her is redundant, but we’re talking about 2018 - a time when the press was pitting Nicki Minaj and Cardi B up against each other as the only female rappers dominating the charts. According to Billboard, even after the album, her record label was unsure what she was. Cats are nothing if not perfectionists.Her debut Amala was a genre-hopping, inconsistent record that made her more of a cult icon than a star.
