In a series of Instagram stories, Doja Cat has firmly denied rumors that she has been dissing fellow female rappers such as Nicki Minaj, Cardi B, or Megan Thee Stallion. The rapper, who has recently faced public scrutiny, made it clear that she holds great respect for her peers in the rap industry.
Doja Cat Responds to Feud Rumors
The “Vegas” rapper emphasized that she doesn’t view other female artists as competition. In her post, Doja Cat wrote, “I don’t diss people I’m inspired by, I don’t diss people I look up to.” She further explained that she’s not targeting these artists, but rather focusing her energy on critics who try to create drama where there is none.
Doja added, “People don’t wanna accept I’m dissing them so they try to pin it on Cardi, Nicki, and Meg.” She clarified that her frustrations are directed at her critics, not other women in the industry. The rapper made it clear that if other female artists don’t harass her, she doesn’t see the need for any conflict.
A History with Nicki Minaj
While Doja Cat’s recent remarks address the ongoing rumors about feuds in the rap community, there was previous tension between Doja and Nicki Minaj in 2021. Minaj had revealed that she declined to join the remix of Doja’s track “Get Into It (Yuh)” after feeling she couldn’t contribute something special to the song. Despite this, the two rappers have collaborated in the past with the hit single “Say So,” and there hasn’t been any official statement suggesting an ongoing feud.
Respect Over Rivalry
Throughout her career, Doja Cat has faced various public opinions, especially when it comes to her relationships with other women in rap. However, she has continually emphasized that there is no animosity, only respect for women like Cardi B, Nicki Minaj, and Megan Thee Stallion, who have paved the way for others in the industry.
Doja’s message resonates strongly in an era where the public often pushes artists to engage in public rivalries. She wants to focus on her music and creativity rather than on unnecessary drama. In an industry where women often face scrutiny, Doja’s words stand as a reminder that solidarity and respect are more important than rivalry.
