Remy Ma Isn’t Bothered By Pushback Over Not Thinking Of Doja Cat As A Rapper

It was just about a year ago when Remy Ma made comments about Doja Cat that have haunted her. he Rap icon has been in the game for decades, so often, she delivers thoughts about the evolution of Hip Hop. During the “Conceited” hitmaker’s appearance on Drink Champs, she questioned Doja’s inclusion as a rapper. “They be putting her in the rapper category. I don’t think she’s a rapper,” said Remy at the time. “But, she makes dope records, and I think she’s dope.”

More recently, Remy appeared on The Jason Lee Show, where the Hollywood Unlocked founder asked her about the statements. “I said what I said,” Remy answered. “But when I said that, I thought I was giving a compliment. I didn’t say it like… I just felt like she was more than a rapper because she sings and she dances.”

“I fell like certain people like, they fall into other categories,” Remy continued. “And everybody was so offended. Then, once everybody got so offended and talkin’ sh*t, I was like, I don’t give a f*ck. I don’t care, I don’t even think about it. I was asked a question, I was on Drink Champs, and that’s what happened.”

“A lot of times, what happens, especially when it comes to us females, the fanbases, when people say things, they twist it around and make it a thing.” This isn’t the first time Remy has attempted to explain away her opinion. Months after catching heat from Doja’s supporters, the rapper emerged with a similar take.

“I thought I was giving [her] a compliment,” she explained in June 2022. “Her whole entourage or fan base came for my life. I was like, ‘I thought I said something good!’” Remy isn’t the only person who holds these thoughts about Doja. The Hot Pink artist has faced critics who don’t include her in the Rap category because of her evervesecent Pop singles that have dominated the charts. Still, others noted that there have been plenty of artists from previous generations that navigated similar spaces and were still considered rappers.

In a recent feature for Variety, Doja touched on this topic. “I went in and I was like, ‘Finally, I get to rap again.’ A lot of people discredit me, so it’s nice to just put another one in the f*cking bucket for a great rap song.”

Remy Ma Responds To Cardi B Trolling Nicki Minaj With Her Picture

Remy Ma somehow got dragged into Nicki Minaj and Cardi B’s Twitter spat last year. Though Nicki’s feud with both individuals is well-documented, it became clear that she and Cardi will likely never see eye-to-eye. In the midst of the Bronx rapper’s feud with City Girls rapper JT, Nicki switched her profile picture to the Miami rapper as a sign of solidarity. In response, Cardi B switched her profile picture to Remy Ma, who previously had issues with Nicki Minaj. 

It was a petty move that found the “Up” rapper and the Young Money artist back at odds. However, things took another turn afterward when Nicki took a jab at Cardi’s pen game. Though it’s no secret that Cardi gets assistance with her raps, the “Do We Have A Problem?” rapper shared a photo of a neon “Nicki” sign with a pen held in front of her first “i.” However, Nicki has since changed her picture from JT’s image while Remy Ma remains Cardi B’s avi.

Remy Ma Responds

During her recent appearance on Jason Lee’s The Jason Lee Show, Remy Ma reflected on Cardi changing her profile picture in the midst of her feud with JT. Though Lee explained it was evident why Cardi chose her image, he stated that they’re all “so petty.” “I ain’t even do nothin’,” Remy replied before Lee suggested she caught a sub in the midst of the feud. “I ain’t catch a stray, hold up, be clear,” she replied. She added that she was at home, watching the whole thing unfold like the rest of us.

Remy Ma explained that she didn’t care about the whole incident, but apparently, there were some people in her fanbase that were aggravated by Cardi’s move. Remy explained that some people tried to reach out to Twitter with claims that Cardi was impersonating the “All The Way Up” rapper. Still, Remy said it’s all love since she and Cardi go back years. “I fuck with Cardi,” Remy said. “She from the Bronx.” Peep the clip above and sound off with your thoughts in the comment section below. 

Remy Ma Reacts To Mike Tyson Admitting Offering Her A Car For Sex

Mike Tyson is known to be a calmer personality these days, but there was a time when he was offering Remy Ma cars for sex. The sports legend revisits the wild tales of his past on his Hotboxin’ with Mike Tyson podcast, and last year, he confirmed he once gave Remy an indecent proposal. Fat Joe joined Tyson and Angie Martinez on the episode and unveiled the eyebrow-raising story.

“Mike invites me to the house, and he says bring Remy Ma with you,” said Joe. “This is around ‘Lean Back’ or some sh*t like that. We go to the house. He opens the door butt naked. … Mike opens the door ass naked. I’m like, what the f*ck is up, bro?’”

Fat Joe claimed Tyson then took them on a house tour, and there was a woman in every room. “I said, ‘Joe, just leave Remy Ma,’” Tyson interjected. “She was upstairs and I was blocking her. She was, ‘No, no.’” Fat Joe further added, “He wanted to keep Remy Ma. He made her offers, he showed this convertible Benz new sh*t. He was like, ‘You can keep this, all you gotta do is spend one night.’

“She looked at me like, ‘Joe, if you don’t get me the f*ck out this house.’ I was like, ‘Mike, we can’t do that. This is my sister.’” The boxing legend said that he and Remy weren’t married back then. “I just liked busting her chops,” stated Tyson. In an update, it looks like Jason Lee has Remy in the hot seat and asked her about Tyson’s big reveal.

Remy was Lee’s guest for his talk show, and he recently shared a clip of their conversation. In it, he asked the rapper about Tyson’s story, and she seemed a tad flustered revisiting the memory. According to Remy, the encounter happened farther back than Joe realized, saying she was “just a teen” at the time. “I’m mad that this story even came out,” she said. Remy further added she was “scared.” She also claimed, “I’m scared now, I don’t even know what to say.” Check it out above.

In one of the most interesting story sessions on Hotboxin’ With Mike Tyson, Fat Joe speaks on his friendship with the boxing legend and includes an untold story that will forever go down in Hip Hop history. With famed radio personality Angie Martinez on the side observing the validity of these stories firsthand, Tyson lets Fat Joe tell the story of Tyson inviting him and Remy Ma to his home…and answers the door totally naked.

Joe adds to the comedy of the story, “I’m only worried about him. He takes me a tour of the house, I’m not lying to you. Every room I walked in there was a chick in every room, in every f***ing room. I’m like what the f***, I’m like this guy lives a f***ing life. He offered us some f***ing 500 bands.” 

Tyson admits to trying to lure the Terror Squad’s newest signee with one of his luxury cars, but the “Lean Back” rapstress clearly declined the champ’s offer.
