Doja Cat Shares “Scarlet” Tracklist, Album Has “No Features”

by

Doja Cat’s new album Scarlet is scheduled to drop later this month. She’s following up her hit-packed 2021 album Planet Her with a project she’s been teasing for years. With the ongoing name changes and a brief album cover controversy firmly behind her, Doja is ready to move into her new era. She’s been slowly rolling out bits and pieces of information about the project across the past few weeks and earlier today she shared a big one.

“no features,” she captioned a new Instagram post. In the attached images she shares a selfie and the official tracklist of the album. As you’d expect the 15 tracks don’t appear to contain any features but they do have the three songs she’s released in the past few months. The second and third singles “Paint The Town Red” and “Demons” are the first two songs in the tracklist starting the record off. Its lead single “Attention” shows up way later as the album’s 14th song. Something that is grabbing plenty of attention in the post is one particularly NSFW song title occupying the third spot on the record. Check out the full tracklist below.

A post shared by Doja Cat (@dojacat)

Earlier this week Doja Cat got another reason to celebrate. Her second single “Paint The Town Red” hit number one making it the first rap song to top the charts since Nicki Minaj’s “Super Freaky Girl” last year. It also marked Doja’s first time topping the chart as a solo artist and her second overall. The first time she hit number one was with Nicki Minaj on their remix of Doja’s viral hit “Say So.”

Doja took to Instagram earlier today to celebrate the news of her new number-one hit in typical Doja fashion. She posted a random, surreal, and NSFW series of pictures for fans to pour through. What do you think of Doja Cat’s new album having no features? Let us know in the comment section below.

Doja Cat Has Finally Broken Rap’s Hot 100 No. 1 Drought With ‘Paint The Town Red’

After much fuss was made about the dearth of rap No. 1s on the Billboard Hot 100 in 2023, the first rap song of the year has topped the chart, breaking the drought at 54 weeks. Best of all, the song to finally bring hip-hop back to the mountaintop came from an artist who has gone to extreme lengths in the fight for her hip-hop credibility: Doja Cat.

Her Dionne Warwick-sampling single “Paint The Town Red” — which saw her rapping more than singing for the first time since her debut album in 2018 — has topped this week’s Hot 100 chart, giving her her second No. 1 after “Say So” reached No. 1 on the chart dated May 16, 2020 (thanks in large part to a guest spot from Nicki Minaj, giving Nicki her first-ever No. 1 as well, and an NSFW promise Doja later reneged on). Interestingly, the last rap song to go No. 1 was Nicki Minaj’s “Super Freaky Girl” on the chart dated August 22, 2022.

In the year leading up to the rollout for her upcoming fourth studio album, Scarlet, Doja joked that her new album would be entirely rap, then entirely R&B, then that it would be punk or inspired by rave culture. She ultimately attributed all these changes of heart to ADHD, but she’s also been a bit of a stylistic chameleon all along, even going as far as deriding her older albums for being more marketable and not as authentic to who she is.

Considering she came up under the tutelage of Project Blowed vets like Verbs in Los Angeles, hip-hop is part of her DNA — and clearly the part she’s most passionate about expressing right now. It looks like that passion is paying off.

Doja Cat Divulges On Why She Wore A Neck Brace

Doja Cat is gearing up for a huge end of the year. Over the last few weeks, she has been giving us some singles to sink our teeth into. For instance, we have gotten “Attention,” “Paint The Town Red,” and even “Demons.” Overall, these songs are pointing toward a new direction for Doja. Although some feel like her music is still operating within the same space as it did before, others are very excited about the new philosophy. Moreover, her change in physical appearance has certainly matched up with the sound of a record like “Demons.”

When it comes to her social media posts, Doja Cat has definitely been maintaining a “unique” persona. She will typically post unflattering images of herself and frame them as memes. Recently, she did just that, although she was wearing a neck brace in the image. At the time, she revealed that her neck was fine and that there was nothing to worry about. On the red carpet of the Victoria’s Secret World Tour fashion show, Entertainment Tonight asked Doja to give fans a full explanation for the hardware.

Doja Cat Explains Herself

As the story goes, Doja has a friend who needs a neck brace, and she just took it from him in the spur of the moment. “So my friend here — my date, my lovely date — got whiplash, and he took… he takes it off sometimes, and so I just stole it from him,” Doja Cat revealed. “I’m literally fine, completely fine. My neck is great.” So there you have it, folks. There is absolutely nothing to worry about. Instead, Doja is doing great, and she is ready to drop her album Scarlet, on September 22nd, the same day as Drake.

Doja Cat has become a polarizing figure, however, she remains beloved by hardcore fans. Let us know how you feel about the artist, in the comments section below.

Doja Cat Explained How ‘Scarlet’ Was Written Over The Course Of Two Periods, Making One Half ‘Very Different’ From The Other

Doja Cat‘s new album Scarlet is finally weeks away from its release, after an album cover change and the singles “Attention,” “Paint The Town Red,” and “Demons.”

On Wednesday (September 6), the Victoria’s Secret World Tour had its launch event where stars hung out on the Pink Carpet. Doja revealed more about Scarlet in an interview with Entertainment Tonight at the event.

“One thing that I wanted to mention was that I have music that came out — these three songs came out, these were the first three songs I made during the period that I was making music,” she said. “And then there’s a second half where I went to Malibu and I made all this music in ten days. That half is very different from the first half.”

When the interview asked it was different, Doja said, “I can’t tell you. But I am excited that it’s coming out soon. It’s two periods.”

This eclecticism in the album makes sense after she previously called the album rap, rave-influenced, R&B, and punk. “This new album is more introspective, but I’m not leaning so hard into that to where it becomes boring,” she said last month.

Scarlet is out 9/22 via RCA. Find more information here.

Doja Cat Channels Baby Keem With New Single “Demons”

Doja Cat has been very adamant about wanting to change up her style. Overall, she has mostly been known for her pop-rap styling. This has also included forays into R&B from time to time. However, Doja is looking to get rid of the pop label. Now, she wants to be a much edgier artist who is known for taking risks. Moreover, she is looking to ditch some of her pop fans who she believes have fallen for a “lesser” style of music.

This is all well and good, although fans felt like tracks such as “Paint The Town Red” were just yet another extension of what she’s already been doing. With her new album Scarlet dropping on September 22nd, fans want to see something a bit different. Well, on Friday, that is exactly what she gave us with the track “Demons.” This song had actually leaked on Twitter already, however, we now have the full version right in front of us.

Interestingly enough, the track sounds like something you would hear from the likes of Baby Keem and Kendrick Lamar. From the horn sections to the flows, there is a lot of “Melodic Blue” in here. Although, Doja puts her own spin on which leads to a pretty cool track. There are some great flows here and the lyrics are what you would expect from this new, edgier version of Doja.

Doja Cat Spooks The Hell Out Of Christina Ricci In Her Terrifying New ‘Demons’ Video

by

We are just weeks away from Doja Cat’s upcoming fourth studio album, Scarlet. Though this hasn’t been the smoothest album rollout for Doja, Scarlet looks to be one of the more interesting releases of the year — especially as we hear Doja experiment with a variety of sounds. On her latest song, “Demons,” we get to hear her tap into her rock bag.

“Demons” features Doja positioning herself as one of the best in the game, as she dismisses controversies and criticisms.

“How my demons look / Now that my pockets full / How my demons look / Now that you b*tches shook,” she raps, approaching the chorus softly, then leaning into a scream, showing off her rock chops.

In the accompanying visual, Doja is seen in the bedroom of Christina Ricci, crawling on the ceilings, scaring the daylight out of her. Ricci attempts to make an escape, but can’t outrun Doja.

None of the songs Doja has released from Scarlet thus far have sounded the same. In an interview with Harper’s Bazaar, Doja described her upcoming effort as a “fun canvas” for her to experiment with her sounds.

“This new album is more introspective, but I’m not leaning so hard into that to where it becomes boring,” Doja says. “So I want to give stories and bops. It’s a nice mixture of both.”

You can listen to “Demons” above.

Doja Cat Updated Her ‘Scarlet’ Album Cover After The Original Had Striking Similarities To A Metal Band’s Artwork

by

When Doja Cat shared the artwork for her forthcoming album Scarlet earlier this week, people noticed a striking similarity between it and the cover of the metal band Chaver’s upcoming album Of Gloom. Chaver’s record was announced in late July, and has the same release date as Doja’s (September 22).

It looks like this sticky situation is already getting cleaned up. Doja posted a new version of the album cover. Instead of a purplish, big spider that’s practically identical to Chaver’s (whose art was done by Dusty Ray), it’s two spiders eerily connecting with one another. It definitely captures the weird, creepy vibe Doja has been going for. The caption reads, “SCARLET 9.22 (updated cover).”

Meanwhile, many fans are upset and turned away by her evil-leaning aesthetic. After she teased a single called “Demon” and got a tattoo of a scythe behind her ear, users online speculated that she’s a satanist and begged her to stop being so scary. Predictably, this only amped up her relentlessly wicked attitude. “Y’all so b*tchmade you probably couldn’t make it through an episode of ‘Goosebumps’, f*ckin p*ssies,” she quipped in her Instagram Story.

Doja Cat’s ‘Scarlet’ Cover Art Is Almost Exactly The Same As A Metal Album Set For Release On The Same Day

Last night (August 29), Doja Cat shared the cover art for her upcoming album Scarlet; While it’s fair to doubt whether this is the actual cover art given how many times Doja has changed her mind about the project, the same image appears on her official website, so it seems to be legit. Some have noticed, though, that the art is pretty much exactly the same as the cover of another album, an album that’s even coming out on the same day as Scarlet.

Pop Crave points out that spider paintings appear on the cover of both Scarlet and metal band Chaver’s upcoming album, Of Gloom, which, like Scarlet, is set for release on September 22. (Here’s Chaver’s announcement post from July 29, and here’s Doja’s from yesterday.)

There are some subtle differences between the two spiders, like the shape and position of some legs and appendages, and the shape of the fluid drop above the spider’s head. One painting isn’t just an edited version of the other, as they appear to be two distinct, albeit strikingly similar, artworks. There are more similarities than differences, though, including the fact that both covers were created by the same artist, Dusty Ray, who Chaver credited in their announcement post and who Doja credited in an Instagram Story post.

So far, neither Doja, Chaver, nor Ray have shared a public comment about the similarity between the album covers.

Doja Cat’s Highly Anticipated Fourth Album ‘Scarlet’ Finally Has A Release Date

Doja Cat is finally giving fans what they want: new music. “Attention” and “Paint The Town Red” are the new singles from her highly anticipated forthcoming album Scarlet. Still, she hasn’t revealed a release date — until now.

The “Woman” singer posted a photo of what may or may not be the album cover, with the caption reading, “SCARLET 9.22 [spider emoji].” The picture is a big, purplish spider against a white background, and of course there’s a parental advisory sticker in the bottom right corner. Fans are still suspicious after her string of lies about the album.

She also recently teased a new single titled “Demons.”

Doja announced the title Scarlet a couple of weeks ago in an interview with Harper’s Bazaar. She also elaborated on the content of the record. “This new album is more introspective, but I’m not leaning so hard into that to where it becomes boring,” she said. “So I want to give stories and bops. It’s a nice mixture of both. I think this project is a really fun canvas for me to play with my rap skills and talk about what’s going on in my life. But I’m not abandoning who I was and what I know about pop and singing and that aspect of music.”

Doja Cat Debuts New Tattoo Alongside Chilling Teaser For “Demons” Music Video

by

Doja Cat’s got a new tattoo. The hitmaker showed off her new ink, which comprised the image of a scythe that curves behind Doja’s ear. It’s a fitting piece given the abundance of death-related imagery that appears in the music video for her latest single, “Paint The Town Red”. At the time of writing, the song has peaked at #15 on the Billboard Hot 100. It’s a major bounce back from her other single of 2023, “Attention”, which peaked at #31.

Both singles come as Doja prepares to release her new album, Scarlet. While a release date hasn’t been confirmed yet, it is expected to drop before the end of fall. Scarlet is Doja’s studio album, and her first since 2021’s Planet Her. That project once again highlighted her massive rise. Just five years ago, her debut album, Amala, peaked at #138. However, her last two albums have been top-ten hits, with Planet Her peaking at #2. Could Scarlet take her to the top of the charts?

Doja Gets Spooky

However, a new tattoo wasn’t the only thing that Doja showed off this week. She also dropped a still from the music video for her next single, “Demons”. The pair of images are top-down shots of Doja sitting huddled in a bath tub filled with black liquid. A monstrous hand can be seen gripping the back of her. Furthermore, in the second image, Doja’s eyes are opaque white. It’s a nice play on the traditional possession imagery. For example, in the CW show Supernatural, demon possession was shown through opaque black eyes.

Additionally, Doja has recruited some true horror royalty for the music video. Christina Ricci will reportedly appear in the video alongside Doja. Perhaps best remembered as the 90s Wednesday Addams, Ricci’s horror cred go far beyond that iconic role. She also appeared in Sleepy Hollow, Monstrous, Netflix’s Wednesday, and Yellowjackets. Furthermore, she produced and starred in the short-lived Lizzy Borden Chronicles. Be sure to watch out for the drop of “Demons” in the near future.
