Doja Cat Talks Going From Drop Out to Viral Sensation on Growing Up: California
Billboard
/ billboard
They definitely snubbed her at the Grammys. She definitely deserved that award.
THATS A FUCKING UNDERSTATEMENT
Yes !!!
Na best new artist is a cursed award it’s better she didn’t win
She know alot about Indian culture for sure I love her
@@Siredgey how is best artist a cursed award? Because of Nicki?😭 get over it
Doja’s aesthetic in high school really makes me happy, and her upbringing has to be the most relatable
lol she grew up a millionaire
@@tony71329 no she didn’t 💀
@Deysha Stewart she never even met her dad she met Whoopi goolberg and told her she did a movie with her dad but she never met him and Whoopi was like yes he’s a good man . Not really if he left his child
@Navi Nav 💯
She was a stirptease/muse in an alt right chat room where they called her the N-word, you relate to that?
Its the fact that doja had an Indian upbringing and even learned barathnatiyam just 😭😭💖💖
we kinda have the same name lmao
❤❤
She's Indian?
@@miurtouissi1093 No she is jew and South African ❤️
@@miurtouissi1093 no, but she had a lot of Indian influence growing up
I don’t think people realize how much of a musical genius she is
fr it shocked me when my mom said she wasnt that talented like...what????
@@Crybatty shes not. Shes generic. Shed do better as a dancer.
@@naysaynetwork5271 SHE IS
@@naysaynetwork5271 plz i’d like to see you do it if she’s generic 💀🤚
Why do people love to bring negativity and/or hate about person who is expressing their emotions through music? If it isn't your cup of tea, just keep it moving. Don't need to spread it like a disease. People hate Nicki Minaj, Beyoncé, Mariah Carey, Ciara, etc. Yes it's gonna happen to every artist, but people who put one comment on a TH-cam video just shows you are a portion of the world that likes to spread hate. How do you like that on your conscious of showing actual dislike to another regular human being?
it's the way she's sitting for me
Famous celebrity sits in chair slightly different
What do you expect from a boss baddie
@leo the spirit healer OK seat counselor 🤡
@leo the spirit healer stfu
@leo the spirit healer WHO FUCKING CARES!! you're mad bc she's not sitting the way society tells "ladies" should be sitting and Doja chooses to sit the way she wants, she feels comfortable with herself sitting that way. you need to lighten tf up
Her taking indian classical dance classes explains her dance skills now. If you know indian classical dance, you can do any dance....it’s the base of every dance
True
Really? Thats cool
Idk about that hun
Where did you find this information?
The base of most dance is African hun❤️
Her growth was SO organic. She's SUCH an AUTHENTIC ARTIST. People don't even understand how RARE this is. Doja is literally up there as one of the BEST artist's of all time, not to mention one of my personal faves. She is 1000% a legend of the new generation, without question. 🙌👑👑👑👑
couldn't have worded it better 😁 her growth as a person and a celebrity artist is really natural and authentic , like you said
trulyyy! She will definitely have a long, thriving career
Stfu u act like u know her personally. I do she's not a good person
@@chakingbake7405 how do you know her?
@@chakingbake7405 no you don't 😂
She so humble and loving. Doja where ever you are just know you deserve all the good things coming and we will forever love and support you ma🤗
Love that!
she really is humble though! I'm happy for her ♥

She was raised with LOFE & CALMNESS by an Artist Mother 💕Love is Everything for kids
I love her so much she’s taking over the industry
Exactly!!
Yes pop ❤️
Amen
I love her more
This comment didn’t age well
Doja Cat is on the way of becoming the same level of Nicki Minaj, Lady Gaga, Rihanna, Taylor Swift, and Beyonce type status. She is definitely on the way to become a music legend.
uhm
She is more talented then most of them. She does her own stuff.
Y’all are high. She’s talented and a stand out but has a long way to go. They have years and years in the game. Just let her develop in her own time. If she’s that good she will prove it.
@@quintonmiller8266 girl everyone is TALENTED. You can't measure it.
@@preranataylorsversion6883 Uh yeah you can 😂
When I used to listen to Doji Doj in 2016, I got a classical indian singing style vibe from her which i really enjoyed. I thought it was just coincidence since Im indian. Now knowing her background it all makes sense!!!!
Got to love it!! I can relate my last name is Indian my father is Indian.
I definitely agree. Growing up with classical Indian music and hearing the influences somewhat in her music is so cool. If you know about ghazals too, I would say SZA has a very similar vibe to ghazals.
i never even noticed that
Omg yes!!
People said she was approriating Indian culture with her 'So High' song but if they watched this they would know where she got some of her inspiration from because she lived it.
When I say Doja is THAT girl, DOJA IS THAT GIRL! On top! FINALLLYYYY people are noticing! Had me since “So High”.
Sameeeee!! I always said she would be a star. So glad she’s getting her flowers
same!!!
SAME omg ive been following her since the beginning i was obsessed at first listen and now with her being at the top its rlly surreal but its exactly what she deserves
Cringe
SAAAMMMEEE!!!!
I feel like she is a different person in each song so talented 😌
Of course because since childhood she has had everybody elses culture and creativity force fed to her by her lonely determined mom. She was going to make sure that her biracial baby becomes a star. Shes been building a culture vulture from scratch sense day 1 so...
Hello Rosa how are you doing today.
She trained in Bharatanatyam? MAD ❤️❤️
This kinda Indian vibe make me fall for them alot. First its started from Nicki Minaj now Doja Cat...girl I'm fainting purrr
Literally gagged at hearing her say Bhajan and Swami. 😭😭
@@leelethan6793 yes they have so many great similarities too : versatility, outgoing personality, influenced from indian culture (for nicki it's acually part of her culture too ♡). i love them both
I know, this made me really connect to her
With ALICE COLTRANE!
Not billboard pretending Doja broke out into mainstream via Say So & not Mooo... 👀
mooo didn’t chart
@@AlopeciaPatientx yeah cuz it wasn't "released" at that point. It still brought millions of TH-cam views though which are just as important to gain that popularity
@@spillledmilllk ohh
Moo made people know her and because of moo and juicy she got the crowd she needed for say so to go as far as it did
exactly
I’m here before Doja wins her first grammy’s Mark me WORDS
@Christopher Fleming *Scammy's
Same
same
She doesn't need a Grammy. Grammy needs her.
She’s so lucky I wish I had more open minded parents
So stupid... Just enjoy your own life along with the hand you were dealt. Stop regretting how your life is. Its dum
@@nahbah8667 Ok Boomer...
Having open minded parents with money really is KEY 😂🙌🏾 good for Doja!
Im literally not even 20 yet. Your reply is so cringe. Its so universally automated when a person hs no comeback. "Okay boomer" sounds extremely dum...
@@nahbah8667 no? people have the right to dream about the life they always wanted. sometimes fate does us wrong and we start life in a type of environment we don't like but we have to work to change that.
her baby pictures are so adorable 🥺, she’s always been beautiful 💕😍
Became a fan of Doja after accidentally stumbling on her 'So High' video years ago. I was amazed that she wasn't more popular at the time. So glad that she persisted and achieved such massive success.
I just hope Planet Her contains an other song that will make me feel the way I felt when I first heard " Streets " !
Her song candy
She has so many unofficially released SoundCloud songs you could go through. I have about 40 favorites, they’re all on TH-cam. Try Trauma from 2014, it has the same kind of pretty melancholy vibe as Streets. th-cam.com/video/XRZqTc-s-1U/w-d-xo.html
@@willwowxdrice642 I love the song Candy, but I don't feel the same vibz as with Streets
@@Blabette Thank you, but I know most of her songs. I listen to Doja Cat since 2015
@Ultraviolet555 Oh hi! Fancy running into you here.😁
i’m so proud of her i hope her career continues to grow 😩💗
I love her interviews. She’s so smart
th-cam.com/channels/7baAVtmnAJjYVLHDXcLJFQ.html
She’s so pretty 😩
she’s so talented it’s scary
ikr
watch in 10 years she’s gonna become a legend. i said it here first.
She is already a legend
@@isabella4464 so true bestie
Frl and beautiful
Doja cat is gonna go so far she Literally gonna be a legend cuz not only does she have her fan base rapidly growing everyday she has gained a ton of barbs which if u are a rap girl and the barbs like u you bound to go far cuz that’s a loyal ass fan base may be crazy sometimes but they loyal
she got her fanbase formed already!! they’re called kittenz
Doja’s fanbase is kittenz, leave the other fanbases out of it, thanks.
@@pastellane1161 y’all acting like having other fan bases is a bad thing I never said she didn’t have her own fan base re read what I said y’all making my comment negative when there was nothing negative about her in my comment
@@st3458 Doja doesn't need no barbs that are going to be mad if she collab win someone that they don't like and then they cancel her. Barbs toxic and af.
@@fabirusssso not all barbs
I am sooooooo amped up for PLANET HER👑❤️❤️🔥
how'd they manage to not have her talk about Moo! and Juicy, those were both big moments before she blew up
Right! Lol she’s probably tired of talking about Moo! She’s talked about so much already.
Wait Moo and Juicy were BEFORE she blew up?? I thought that was after omg. Are you talking about after Say so?
@@Nanancay yeah Moo was like Spring 2018 and Juicy was Summer 2019
Moo was what really brought her into the spotlight. Then juicy then say so made her worldwide
Omg tears ran down my face watching this😩😭 we love you dojaaaaaaaaaa!!!!😩
I dislike nothing about her persona, so well spoken, creative and attractive.
Did i just hear bharathanatiyam dance? Proud to be Indian 🇮🇳💪🏽
I love how open she is about addiction❤️ tough but good to hear someone so big acknowledging it
would be great if she wasn't using now
The wordplay in her lyrics.....
Yes!!
You literarily grew up hippie🌝🌝🌝❤️
she grew up hindu, not hippie.
@@moomiira 🌝okay
Uh no. Hippies don't act like that.
I love her, she's so raw
Omg just look how Doja is sitting, a true queen right there.
Cringe
It’s nice to see someone build themself up and make it in Hollywood based on talent and hard work, and not just who they know. She literally writes and produces her own music, and started out doing bar gigs. It’s inspiring. I can tell that smoking affected her voice though, but she still sounds great.
Im not sure about talent. Def grew up wealthy and around the right industry people.

@@lupearaujo5886 ?
She keeps me so calm
@@Girlqueen56 !
Dance, English and lunch lol I love her even more
Read it as she said it
Lmao!
I love Doja cat sha🥰🥰
She always forgets to mention Periscope, that was before Instagram. I discovered her on there and been following babes ever since, even made my own live videos. This chick should’ve been famous, but my stinginess wanted her to remain a hidden gem. I still listen to her SoundCloud songs and still fucking love her ! You deserve the world🌸😭
I've never heard of her til the Saweetie Triller fiasco. She's crazy talented. I'm binging her videos. Is she half blk?.
@@mrsx7944 yes, her dad is a South African dancer and actor - dumisani dlamini
@@lovelaine4475 thx..her dad was gorgeous in his day.
Yes yes yes ! I remember watching her make beats and be her goofy self ☺
What name did she use on Periscope?
My 15 year granddaughter has been going through depression during the COVID shutdown. When she got back to school they had celebritie day and all the young people had to dress up like their favorite celebrity. Kiki dress up as Doja Cat and she was so happy preparing for the day. So please Doja keep doing your thang. You make so many people happy. Thank you so much.
She's soo Beautiful..!!!😍
She was such a cute baby ❤️
I love learning about her life. She's crazy talented, genuine, and overall a wonderful person. Definitely rare in the industry.
This is the what a real creative mind and artistry looks like. There’s no comparison.
I love her so much im so proud
She’s so inspiring.
th-cam.com/channels/7baAVtmnAJjYVLHDXcLJFQ.html
Although they haven't really had a relationship, its worth mentioning that her dad is a big artist back here in SA.. One of the guys we loved watching on Yizo Yizo as Kids, he played the part Chester and he killed it...
Her and Kayla Harris seem to hate their black dads🤷🏾♀️
@@traciewalkertalktv665 doja hasn’t said anything bad about her father apart from the fact that he wasn’t in her life, if someone isn’t in your life why would you speak highly of them? black fathers need to do better
@@traciewalkertalktv665 he literally started to acknowledge her when she was getting more famous
@@traciewalkertalktv665 the color of his skin matters next to nothing if he was a shit dad to her he doesn’t get to come back when she’s successful
@@traciewalkertalktv665 he abandoned her lol, that’d piss any child off, don’t be stupid
I always thought she had a sexy rasp in her voice that's kind of smoky and raw...when she admitted to being a former smoker I can definitely hear it sometimes reflected in her voice in the best possible way. And quite honestly I'm really proud of her copping to having a former addiction to cigarettes and overcoming it, that's a powerful good message
She look just like Tia & Tamera😊
Fuck no
@@ashley1919100 she definitely does. Maybe you need to see some images in their younger days or something
Sitting sideways FTW! I sit like that at home all the time. She's comfortable af!
Cringe
I like how her high school pics look like they could’ve been taken yesterday. Not only showing how ageless she looks but also how some of her style influenced her present
i remember the ig live days when we would just chill with her and make beats together and talk, it was just a few people watching back then and now she has like 40k viewers everytime she goes live. it's so amazing to watch her journey and i am so happy her talent is finally being recognized by the mainstream! (even if i miss those old days sometimes)
The "old days"? She's 26 LMFAO
@@wyattspop and shes been making music since she was 15. she went live on periscope back then too
Love you Doja.
She’s one if the most creative artists today and she doesn’t copy or sample old music
She samples old songs with Streets and Freak, I think any artist eventually samples or gets inspiration from others though. Still agree with you and she definitely puts her own stamp in her music which we love.
Bottom Bitch samples Blink 182
there’s nothing wrong with sampling if it’s used well like she does
Streets was sampled.
And kiss me more Was Sampled after let’s get physical
Actually your comment is false. Very disturbing to see how many people just hit the like button for any comment they see. Even more disturbing to see how many people just comment anything without knowing the facts. 👀
I see your talant and effort, but also I experience the person who you are come through. Much appreciate all your music. Biggest fan!!!
She is just amazing
Her raspy speaking voice definitely makes sense now. Good on her for getting over that though. Hard to do
Ugh I’m obsessed with her.
U R A VERY TALENTED YOUNG LADY THANK U 4 IT ALL GIRL U HAVE HELPED ME TO OVER COME MY FEARS ON BATTLING THIS STAGE 4 CANCER I BEEN FIGHTING SINCE 2012 N I WILL GET STRONGER NOTHING OR THIS CANCER WILL DEFINE WHO I AM AMEN THANKS GIRL!!!
Hello Michelle how are you doing today
I love her intelligence
Ever since she did that metal cover of Say So I’ve been wanting more rock/metal from her. 🤤
Go best friend that’s my best friend 😍😍😍 Doja is such a relatable person she’s soo lovable and hard working 👏🏾👏🏾🤩
Doja Cat is an outstanding talent. I love her artistry, creativity, energy, and soulful vibe. Keep up the great work! :-)
My new found love for Doja grow strong each day.
i love you so much doja, super proud of you & can't wait for this album dude
Hello Mary how are you doing today
im sooo excited for Planet Her!!!
Her solo Triller performance was incredible so I'm excited to see what's next from her
looking forward to hearing the next album!
I love that the public can finally see that Doja’s beautiful mom is NOT that Hillary Clinton lookalike everyone thought it was. (No offense to that lady)
Right!!!
Why did I comment here like I was on Stan Twitter 😩
Hillary Clinton lookalike I'm screaming Zjdnxnsnxndnxnd
lmfao
I thought it was just me thinking this 😭😭
She’s looks EXACTLY like her mom. They are literally the same person
Actually if you see pictures of her dad, she has a lot of her dads features
@@suzygirl1843 I know him as Crocodile in Sarafina
@@sabrichelle that's so true, the resembles is too much , shes like her daddy's twin
Yep 2 culture vultures.
Yeah i know..she is using other peoples culture to get aheAd but when its time to protest black issues or use her platform to shed light on black or indian problems, she does nothing. Instead she logs in to some dark web chat group and says racist things about blacks to her racist white friends. She doesnt care about the people she just want bits and pieces of their culture to make up who she wants the world to see her as. She is fooling yall to believe she was born creative with style and soul. In reality, its all studied and stolen from others.
"I tried acid one time and it helped me quit cigarettes."
*task failed successfully*
but actually good for her
I'm so glad she came out I Love her songs
Hello Alissa how are you doing.
I need to see Doja and Nicki interact with each other in person 🥰🥰🥰🦄🦄🦄
That would be dope and interesting😭
It’s coming soon!!

@@basheerb4731 you don’t.
Yasss, I want a Cardi B, Nicki Minaj, Doja Cat, and Meghan Thee Stallion, queen of rap feature!!
Edit: why does everyone hate me now???
Yes to the late great Ms coltrane! You really are a soul sister Doja
You have no fucking idea how inspirational you are I have listened to some of the best in R&B and Rap and you are one of the Greatest! Period
Shes so talented wth

LMFAOOO KOREAN WATER

What a queen😍💓
Hello Belinda how are you doing today.
So high was the first song I heard from her years ago. I thought she was amazing glad shes up there now well deserved
I haven't seen such Unique talent since Missy Elliott
aw i cried watching this.
doja cat is a true artist and its so beautiful to see how much shes flourished!
my only fav artist of this generation.
That ALICE COLTRANE part need an ENTIRE INTERVIEW. Like, how can you not
Yes. I went looking for comments right after I saw that. What an experience.
Exactly!! Like what?! I feel like it's impossible to not be an incredible music artist when the stars align to put you in close contact with such a legend.
@@linzeeb4 exactly, Thee most complex and innovating spiritual Jazz musician in all times, more than other religious profiled like Muslim musicians even they were the most at the modern time in jazz
What..!! Bharatanatyam dance... traditional dance from India...and has a history of more than thousand years...you go Queen ✨
Goddess!!!!
i adore her so much. there's sooo much you can learn from her
She is so mysterious, eccentric, and mellowed also focused knows where she's going much respect! 💕💞
Doja my religion 🛐🛐🛐
I know this new album is going to be her best! Can’t wait
I've been following Doja Cat's artistry since 2015/16 and I'm so happy/proud as a fangirl to see her blow up the way she has. She is so talented and I'm excited to see what's next.
omg i love her lil raspy voice♥️
Discovered her with the Go to Town track then Juicy. She is so liberated and empowered in her own creativity and sensuality as a woman. She us the female David Bowie if her time.
Love you dojacat 🖤🖤
I love seeing Doja's childhood photos ❤ stay thriving QUEEN 🙏
Love doja cat
She's one of those artists I wanna take out for drinks and just hear about her story all day long. So fascinated by and proud of her!
I LOVE Doja Cat, she's literally showing us what is possible!
this was amazing
I'm so glad that I find Doja. Her songs make me so happy I love herrr
So High was my first song and then I was hooked. ❤️
I love you Doja Cat! ♥️♥️♥️
