What did Doja Cat do?

In 2020, Doja Cat was canceled from the internet after her alleged chat room activities resurfaced online. According to Insider, the Grammy-winner took part in the video-chatting platform TinyChat. As her cancelation began, hashtags including #DojaCatIsOverParty and #DojaCatIsCanceled trended on X (formerly Twitter).

According to Page Six, the singer, whose real name is Amalaratna Zandile Dlamini, allegedly also participated in alt-right communities.

Despite making headlines for her chatroom activities, one of the Say So singer’s songs was one of her most controversial actions, which left netizens outraged. In the 2015 track, Doja allegedly mocked people who died of police brutality. According to The Source, the song’s name:

“seems to be a stylized pronunciation of “didn’t do nothing.””

Before it resurfaced online, the song, initially uploaded on SoundCloud, was later deleted.

Doja Cat apologized for one of her songs in 2020

As the song left her fans enraged, she took to her Instagram Live to address the same. She said the song was about her sharing her "own personal experience."

Doja also revealed that,

“[The song] was written in response to people who often used that term to hurt me. I made an attempt to flip its meaning, but recognize that it was a bad decision to use that term in my music.”

Doja Cat also addressed rumors of the song being about Sandra Bland, an African American woman who died in jail after being arrested during a traffic stop. The musician said,

“That song is in no way connected to police brutality or Sandra Bland. To see something like that, my song, connected to an innocent Black women's death is one of the most awful rumors that I have ever encountered. I don't see in any way how that's OK to push and create a story like that around this song.”

The singer also addressed her chatroom experience in an interview with People Magazine in December 2019, where she admitted to making “offensive jokes,” often including “horrible language.”
