Doja Cat claims she's willing to show she's a talented rapper, and in order to do so, she's putting her pop flair on hold, maybe for good.
The musician, who has been branded many things but never exactly fits into any given box, turned to Twitter on Saturday to indicate she's heard the people loud and clear... particularly, that her bars aren't quite up to scratch and that her rap prowess has been very lackluster thus far.
It's a critique Doja has received since she burst onto the scene, especially given the majority of her best successes are straight-up bubble-gum pop songs where she sings.
no more pop

Doja Cat claims she'll show everybody exactly what she's up to on her next album... "i also agree with everyone who said the majority of my rap verses are mid and corny. I know they are. I wasnt trying to prove anything I just enjoy making music but I'm getting tired of hearing yall say that i can't so I will."
In simple terms, Doja will flex her muscles in due time. She mentioned in her comments to some Twitter users who responded to the news, pointing out that she considers herself a rapper... on par with Nicki Minaj, Megan Thee Stallion, Latto, Cardi B, and other notable femcees, it appears.

Doja also claims that pop music no longer inspires her... and that she want to shift her focus to a different sound and feel. Finally, she claims she talk her s*** on this new project, "Hellmouth."
However, she seems convinced she is capable of achieving it... and considering her track record, there's little need to doubt her. Doja Cat is one of the greatest names in music right now, so we're confident she'll put out a great album with great production and features.
