Doja Cat continues to have a helluva time with the discharge of “Scarlet 2 CLAUDE.”
3. OKLOSER
Us: Are we in highschool? Doja Cat: B*tch, we is perhaps.
I actually, actually prefer it when Doja Cat is petty and raps over playful beats; she does simply that in “OKLOSER.” While you may skim over my preliminary sentence, it’s essential to notice that her rap type within the track isn’t all light-hearted. I like how she approaches the beat with formidable pressure, maintains a constant circulation, exudes vibrant vitality, and effortlessly dismisses her opps. However, I’ve one criticism: the road “Rock wanna rock me” felt a bit weak.
2. PISS
Do you realize that Jay-Z meme by which he hesitantly shakes his head whereas listening to a track carried out earlier than him? I did that whereas listening to “PISS.”
Let’s state the plain first: This track’s title threw me off. I used to be afraid Doja Cat was going to go the PornHub route with this s**t. However, she solely associates the phrase “Piss” along with her yellow diamonds. Another side that caught me off guard was her whispery rapping type all through the track. However, because the monitor progresses, it begins to enrich the hazy but booming manufacturing completely. What didn’t shock me was Doja’s rap verse in direction of the tip; it offered a becoming conclusion to the track. Given time, I imagine this monitor will develop into my favourite from this mission.
1. URRGE!!!!!!!!!! (Ft. A$AP Rocky)
Doja Cat opening this track by saying, “f**k them kids,” made me spit out my Smacks this morning.
I’m utterly joking; I don’t eat Smacks. That cereal is mid. What’s not mid is that this monitor. “URRGE!!!!!!!!!!” is an edgy banger that has a beat designed to make grounds shake (I’m positive individuals in New York aren’t attempting to listen to that proper now), a really rebellious verse and a hard-ass refrain by Doja Cat, and a classic verse by A$AP Rocky by which he switches his circulation a couple of instances and explains for the a thousandth time how a lot he’s the s**t and might’t be flushed. All in all, that is undoubtedly a track for old-school Rocky followers (Which I’m).
1. ACKNOWLEDGE ME (4/5)
2. DISRESPECTFUL (4/5)
3. URRGE!!!!!!!!!! (Ft. A$AP Rocky) (4.5/5)
4. OKLOSER (4/5)
5. MASC (Ft. Teezo Touchdown) (4/5)
6. PISS (4/5)
7. HEADHIGH (4/5)
(B-) (81%)
Doja Cat’s ‘I don’t give a s**t’ meter is de facto excessive. Out of all of the artists which can be poppin’ proper now, I really feel like she does no matter she desires probably the most typically. To me, she has an even bigger inexperienced mild than Luka Doncic, y’all.
What captivates me about this mission is the unpredictable nature of Doja Cat’s sound. She retains listeners guessing with each monitor, by no means adhering to 1 explicit type or strategy. Specifically, you by no means know what circulation she’ll make use of, when she’ll transition between singing and rapping, or what sort of beat she’ll deal with subsequent. It’s an exhilarating expertise attempting to decipher the which means behind tracks like “PISS” and understanding how they’re presupposed to resonate with audiences. I wholeheartedly imagine that we may use extra unpredictability in music—it retains issues contemporary and thrilling.
Another side of this mission I recognize is Doja Cat’s dedication to rapping. She doesn’t maintain again; as an alternative, she delivers highly effective flows, maintains a aggressive edge, and embodies the persona of a seasoned, veteran rapper convincingly. While I want she explored a couple of extra matters and maybe refined her punchlines, the underside line is that she brings her A-game. That’s in the end probably the most vital takeaway from her efficiency.
After two straight releases with some very genuine rap tracks, I’m able to proudly proclaim Doja Cat my favourite feminine rapper within the sport at this time.
