Doja Cat Re-Ups ‘Cash Grab’ Language About Old Song While Onstage

And you know I think strategically because I can be strategic.
“I think it was a good addition to the album and a strong addition to the album. I know that it’s a strong song. And I did [expect it to be as popular as it is] and I was kind of running that from a little bit. I didn’t really want to have that pants-up-high song, the goofy, kind of palatable.”
