  • In August 2018, Doja Cat uploaded a homemade music video in which she fantasized about being a cow. Within a week it had passed three million views. The American rapper, singer and producer was born Amala Ratna Zandile Dlamini, and the clip turned her into an internet joke before it turned her into a career. Billboard would later call her one of the defining pop stars of this era, and many writers now call her the "Queen of Pop-Rap." How does an internet punchline become an arena headliner? What shaped her before any label paid attention? And why, at the height of her fame, did she tell followers that music was dead to her? The answers begin with an unusual childhood and years of teaching herself the craft alone.

  • On the 21st of October 1995, in the Tarzana neighborhood of Los Angeles, Amala Dlamini was born to parents from very different worlds. Her mother, Deborah Sawyer, is an American graphic designer of Jewish heritage. Her father, Dumisani Dlamini, is a South African performer of Zulu descent who played Crocodile in the original Broadway cast of Sarafina! and in the 1992 film version. The couple met in New York City, where he was performing, and their relationship was brief. He later returned to South Africa, saying homesickness drove him and that he hoped the family would follow.

    The two sides of that story do not agree. Dumisani Dlamini says he has a "healthy" relationship with his daughter and claims her management team tried to block his contact for fear they "might lose her." She says she is estranged from him and "never met him," and she has called him a deadbeat to her and her brother. In a 2025 podcast interview with Angie Martinez, she also revealed three half-siblings on her mother's side.

    Soon after her birth, the family left Tarzana for Rye, New York. There she spent five years with her maternal grandmother, who worked as an architect and painter. At the age of eight, she returned to California with her mother and brother and moved into the Sai Anantam Ashram, a commune in Agoura Hills. Its spiritual director was the jazz musician Alice Coltrane. For four years the family practiced Hinduism, and the young Amala wore head-covering scarves and sang bhajans. She has said she felt she could not "be a kid" there.

    Oak Park, California, a couple of miles north, brought a very different routine. She took dance lessons and had what she calls a "sporty childhood" of skateboarding and surf camps in Malibu. She and her brother were among the only mixed-race children in the area, and they faced racial prejudice. As a teenager she took breakdancing classes and joined a professional poplocking troupe, competing in dance battles around Los Angeles while still in high school.

    Her aunt, a vocal coach, gave her singing lessons so she could audition for Central Los Angeles Area New High School No. 9, a performing arts school. She often skipped class to sit in online chatrooms. In eleventh grade she decided that "performing and music was all she ever cared about." She dropped out at sixteen, partway through her junior year, and blames struggles with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. In her words, "it felt like I was stuck in one spot and everybody else was progressing constantly." Her next teacher would be a computer screen.

  • Doja Cat remembers the time after leaving school as "messy." She slept on the floor and spent "all night and day" online, hunting for beats and instrumentals on YouTube, which she downloaded and rapped over. Fascinated by sites like eBaum's World and Myspace, she taught herself to sing, rap and use GarageBand, then posted the results to SoundCloud. In late 2012, a track called "So High" became the first permanent upload on her account.

    The Los Angeles underground hip-hop scene was her first real audience. She performed at parties and cyphers and met rappers including Busdriver, Ill Camille and VerBS. VerBS claims he helped sharpen her craft and find her first gig. Around then, a producer named Jerry "Tizhimself" Powell stumbled across her SoundCloud page. He introduced her to the record producer Yeti Beats, who invited her to record at his studio in Echo Park. That studio became what one account calls "an oasis of sorts" from the turmoil at home.

    Yeti Beats connected her with Kemosabe Records, an imprint of RCA Records. At seventeen she signed under the label executive Dr. Luke and his publishing company, Prescription Songs. The deal also brought a temporary management partnership with Roc Nation. In August 2014 she released her debut extended play, Purrr!, which The Fader described as "spacey, eastern-influenced R&B." "So High" was repackaged as her first solo commercial single and later appeared in the third episode of the first season of the Fox series Empire.

    Momentum then stalled. In mid-2015 she temporarily signed to OGG, the label of the rapper OG Maco, and the two recorded "Monster" in late 2016 for his 2017 mixtape Children of The Rage. She also opened for Theophilus London on his 2015 Vibes Tour and for Lizzo on the 2017 Good as Hell Tour. Writer's block led her to turn down Billie Eilish's invitation to appear on "Bellyache," which became one of Eilish's popular 2017 singles. She describes the period as "creative limbo," shaped by labels that paid her little attention, by her search for herself and by smoking too much marijuana.

  • In February 2018, after a four-year gap in major releases, Doja Cat put out the song "Roll with Us." A month later came "Go to Town," the lead single for her first album, with a music video. "Candy" followed as the second single in the same month. On the 30th of March 2018, the album Amala arrived through RCA and Kemosabe Records.

    Nobody noticed. Critics ignored Amala, and it failed to chart in any market. She has since spoken about it with strong disdain, calling it unfinished and saying it does not fully represent her. She says she was constantly partying or high during the recording. She also says the labels rushed it to meet deadlines and gave it "almost no support."

    The cow song changed that. "Mooo!" was released to streaming platforms later in August 2018 because of demand after the video spread. It became the lead single of a deluxe edition of Amala. "Tia Tamera," featuring Rico Nasty, followed in February 2019 with its own video. The full deluxe edition came out on the 1st of March 2019, adding "Mooo!," "Tia Tamera" and "Juicy" as bonus tracks. The success of the cow song is believed to have "irrefutably proved" to her labels that she was a marketable artist, and they began paying more attention.

    The forgotten single "Candy" had one more surprise. In late 2019, a dance challenge on TikTok made it a sleeper hit. It charted in Australia, Canada and the United States, where it peaked at number 86 on the Billboard Hot 100. That was her first solo entry on the chart.

  • In August 2019, a remix of "Juicy" added a verse from the rapper Tyga and arrived with a new music video. It was the lead single from her second studio album. It debuted at number 83 on the Billboard Hot 100 and peaked at number 41, and the Recording Industry Association of America later certified it platinum. Its success pushed Amala onto the Billboard 200 for the first time, that same month.

    Hot Pink was released on the 7th of November 2019 to generally favorable reviews and peaked at number 9 on the Billboard 200. A planned appearance on a track called "Broward Coward," from an early version of the late XXXTentacion's album Bad Vibes Forever, vanished when that album's tracklist was rewritten for its posthumous release in December 2019. She also contributed a single to the soundtrack of the 2020 film Birds of Prey.

    The real engine was "Say So." It had come out with the album in November 2019 and found a much larger audience on TikTok. In January 2020 it was sent to radio as the album's fourth single. She performed it on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon in February 2020, and the next day the music video, directed by Hannah Lux Davis, was released. The solo version peaked at number five on the Hot 100, giving her a first top-ten single, and it was the most streamed song by a female artist in the United States in 2020.

    In May 2020, a remix featuring Nicki Minaj sent "Say So" to number one on the Hot 100. It was the first chart-topper for both women and the first female rap collaboration ever to reach the top of that chart. Her Hot Pink Tour, planned for March 2020, was postponed because of the COVID-19 pandemic. She kept working anyway, appearing on a remix of the Weeknd's "In Your Eyes" and on "Motive" from Ariana Grande's Positions, which reached number 32 on the Hot 100.

    Awards followed through the autumn of 2020. At the MTV Video Music Awards she won Push Best New Artist and performed a medley of "Say So" and "Like That." At the Billboard Music Awards she staged a burlesque-themed medley inspired by Chicago and Moulin Rouge. She won Best New Act at the MTV Europe Music Awards, though her metal rendition of "Say So" there drew criticism for sampling Plini's "Handmade Cities" without permission. Plini later reported receiving an apologetic message from her. She also won The New Artist of 2020 at the 46th People's Choice Awards and New Artist of the Year at the American Music Awards.

    The year-end numbers were striking. Her on-demand audio streams in the United States rose 300% from 2019, and Rolling Stone ranked her number one among the ten biggest breakthrough artists of 2020. Forbes put her on its 30 Under 30 list. She was the fourth most-Googled musician in the United States that year.

  • On the 7th of January 2021, Doja Cat appeared on Saweetie's single "Best Friend" and in its video. A week later, her verse on the remix of Ariana Grande's "34+35," alongside Megan Thee Stallion, lifted that song to a new peak of number two on the Hot 100. Her own song "Streets" became a sleeper hit after live performances of it went viral on TikTok. A challenge pairing it with Paul Anka's "Put Your Head on My Shoulder" carried it to number 16. At the 63rd Annual Grammy Awards she was nominated for Best New Artist, and "Say So" earned nominations for Record of the Year and Best Pop Solo Performance.

    She revealed the title of her third album, Planet Her, in a March 2021 interview with V. On the 10th of April, "Kiss Me More," featuring SZA, arrived as the lead single. It spent nineteen consecutive weeks in the top 10 of the Hot 100, a record for a female collaboration, and peaked at number three. On the 23rd of April she launched an NFT marketplace called "Juicy Drops." On the 11th of June she released "Need to Know" as a promotional single, and "You Right," with the Weeknd, was confirmed as the "more important" second single.

    Planet Her opened at number two on the Billboard 200 and stayed there for three weeks. No album had spent its first three weeks at number two since Nicki Minaj's The Pinkprint in January 2015. It remained in the top ten for over six months, the first project by a female rapper to do so. It topped the charts in New Zealand and reached the top 5 in the United Kingdom, Australia, Norway and Ireland. The International Federation of the Phonographic Industry ranked it the 10th best-selling album of 2021 and the 13th of 2022.

    The year also pulled her into television and advertising. On the 16th of June 2021 she appeared in the second season of the series Dave as a temporary love interest for Lil Dicky. In September, Pepsi named her an ambassador, and she starred in an ad reenacting "You're the One That I Want" from Grease. That same month she hosted the 2021 MTV Video Music Awards, her first job as a television presenter. She won Best Collaboration with SZA and Best Art Direction with Saweetie. No nominee for Video of the Year had ever hosted the ceremony in the same year, and Pitchfork said she "reinvented award-show hosting."

    In October 2021 she reached number one on the Billboard Hot 100 Songwriters chart for the first time. She also became the first rapper to place three top 10 songs on the US Mainstream Top 40, with "You Right," "Need to Know" and "Kiss Me More." Billboard named her the bestselling female R&B and hip-hop artist in the United States for 2021, and the fourth bestselling female artist overall. Six of her songs landed on the year-end Hot 100, and Planet Her was the sixth best-selling album in the country. At the 2022 XXL Awards she won Female Rapper of the Year and Performer of the Year.

    The 64th Annual Grammy Awards gave her eight nominations, the most of any woman that year. Among them were Album of the Year for both Planet Her and Lil Nas X's Montero. "Kiss Me More" won Best Pop Duo Performance.

  • In February 2022, Doja Cat starred in a Taco Bell commercial that premiered during Super Bowl LVI and featured her cover of "Celebrity Skin" by the rock band Hole. She wrote reworked lyrics with Hole's frontwoman, Courtney Love. In May she released "Vegas" for Baz Luhrmann's film Elvis. In July the British rapper Central Cee released "Doja," a song named for her, which became the most streamed UK rap song on Spotify.

    Behind the success, she was wearing down. She spoke openly about career burnout, disliked what she called "unnecessary" obligations and admitted she no longer enjoyed the work. During a South American festival tour in March 2022, a storm forced the cancellation of her show in Paraguay. An incident with fans followed, and she posted on Twitter: "Everything is dead to me, music is dead, and I'm a fucking fool for ever thinking I was made for this." She said she was leaving, then retracted the statement after a short break from the platform.

    In early 2023, she began teasing a fourth album under the working title Hellmouth. She promised it would be "predominantly rap," a return to the style of her earliest work. She called her previous two albums "cash grabs" and "digestible pop hits" and said she wanted to move away from "pink and soft things." She also adopted a darker look that she described as "punk," "experimental" and "manic." Some fans found it "demonic" and accused her of being a Satanist and a member of the Illuminati.

    In mid-June 2023, the promotional single "Attention" arrived with a video directed by Tanu Muino. In early August came the lead single, "Paint the Town Red." It broke streaming records and became her first solo song to top the charts in both the United States and the United Kingdom, as well as the Billboard Global 200. It also hit number one on the Billboard Global Excl. US chart, the first rap song to do so. The album's title was revealed as Scarlet in mid-August. The promotional single "Demons" followed in early September, with a video co-starring the actress Christina Ricci.

    Scarlet was released on the 22nd of September 2023 to mostly positive reviews. It debuted in the top 5 in the United States, the United Kingdom and Canada. The Scarlet Tour, her first arena tour, opened its North American leg with Doechii and Ice Spice as support. A deluxe edition, Scarlet 2 Claude, followed on the 5th of April 2024 and took its name from Claude Frollo in The Hunchback of Notre Dame. It featured ASAP Rocky and Teezo Touchdown.

    In October 2024, cryptic posts on X reading "vvv" and "album" set fans guessing about a fifth record. Early 2025 brought a guest spot with Raye on "Born Again," from Lisa's album Alter Ego, and on the 21st of March a feature on Jack Harlow's "Just Us." On the 5th of May 2025, she released "Crack," a Scarlet outtake, on her website, where it could be downloaded for only 24 hours. The same day, a Marc Jacobs campaign previewed "Jealous Type," and she confirmed at the Met Gala that it would be a single.

    On the 21st of July 2025, she announced on X that the album was finished. She told V Magazine it would be more "pop-driven" than Scarlet. On the 14th of August she set the release for the 26th of September. Vie arrived on schedule to critical acclaim, mixing R&B, pop, funk, new jack swing and hip-hop. It debuted at number four on the Billboard 200 with 57,000 album-equivalent units, her fourth top-ten album. A second single, "Gorgeous," arrived in October.

  • In a Billboard interview, Doja Cat said she is "in love with everything Nicki Minaj has put out into the world." On "Get Into It (Yuh)," from Planet Her, she borrows lyrics and rap delivery from Minaj's 2010 debut single "Massive Attack." The New Yorker said she "builds upon the pop-rap legacy established by her predecessor." She also names Lauryn Hill and Busta Rhymes, saying she will copy a flow of his when a beat suits him. Rihanna, Beyonce, D'Angelo, Missy Elliott, Christina Aguilera, Pharrell Williams, Lil' Kim, Janet Jackson and Prince appear on her list too. Her mother's playlists added Fugees, Erykah Badu, Aaliyah, Tupac and TLC, among others. The Hindu culture of her childhood and Japanese culture have been noted as sources for Purrr!. In April 2026 she publicly defended Madonna against ageist criticism.

    Hot Pink was built on her own beats, with videos she wrote and conceived herself. She calls it a firm restart and the most "refined, chiseled" picture of herself. She says the album was inspired by an "illuminating" acid trip that made her quit smoking cigarettes and marijuana. Asked about her legacy, she said she wants to be remembered for versatility across music, visual art and dance.

    Her stage name dates to 2012. She took it from one of her cats and from her favorite strain of marijuana, saying, "I was heavily addicted to weed and weed culture, so when I began rapping I thought of the word 'doja' and how it sounds like a girl's name." By November 2021 she had grown wary of the persona, saying "my image was the pothead hippie girl, and I'm not that."

    Her online presence has brought controversy. NME named her its Milkshake Duck of 2018 after 2015 tweets resurfaced in which she used a slur against other performers. She first defended herself, then apologized and deleted them. She drew similar backlash for comments about the COVID-19 pandemic. A Threads post saying she was not obliged to say she "loves" fans she does not know cost her over a quarter of a million Instagram followers. Forbes writer Bryan Rolli, though, saw a "tireless work ethic" behind her "aloof, irreverent, chronically online persona."

    Her health has been part of the story. She told Billboard she was heavily addicted to alcohol and chain smoking while growing up, and calls quitting cigarettes "one of the biggest challenges of her life." She has amblyopia and a diagnosis of borderline personality disorder, and she attends therapy for the condition she calls "agonizing." In May 2022, she said on Twitter that vaping had caused an infected tonsil that needed lancing. She planned a tonsillectomy, which meant canceling her summer festival run and her opening slot on the Weeknd's After Hours til Dawn Tour. In June 2020 she donated $100,000 to the Justice for Breonna Taylor Fund.

    The totals are large. She has sold over 34 million records between 2018 and 2022, making her one of the best-selling female rappers ever. Billboard ranked her 24th on its list of the top women artists of the 21st century, and second among female rappers. Her trophy count includes one Grammy from nineteen nominations, six Billboard Music Awards, five American Music Awards, six MTV Video Music Awards and eight iHeartRadio Music Awards. BMI named her Songwriter of the Year at its Pop and its R&B Hip-Hop awards.

    On the 27th of January 2024, "Paint the Town Red" topped the Triple J Hottest 100, making her the first female rapper and first woman of color to win the poll. Time put her on its 2023 list of the 100 most influential people and gave her one of four covers that year. Her headline run now stretches from the Amala Tour of 2018-2019 through the Scarlet Tour of 2023-2024 to the Tour Ma Vie World Tour, which spans 2025-2026.
