The Netizens of Twitter have expressed their disappointment with the singer for mocking the black community despite being biracial herself. The fans of Doja Cat, popularly known for her “Say So” and debut performance of Birds of Prey starter, yet again. We likely think that the singer will not be forgiven this time, the #DojaCatIsOverParty trends over twitter after Doja allegedly made racist slurs that have crossed the line this time. Although she’s being subjected to extreme criticism for intentionally being racist, various opinions are taking rounds of the internet.
The infamous Amalaratna Zandile Dlamini, known by her stage name Doja Cat, was born to a white American mother of Jewish heritage and a South African father, expressed her feelings of not wanting to be part of where she belongs from. A majority of her fans have shared video of her participating in a video conference call with a few men during which she allegedly spoke ill of the black community while talking not wanting to belong to a particular race herself.
The Netizens have expressed their disappointment in the singer for mocking the black community despite being biracial. The rest of the comments surrounding #dojacatisoverparty focus on her song “Dindu Nuffin” which has received major backlash for being extremely racist. Although the lyrics don’t mention anything offensive, the title alone, which is often used to address innocent African-Americans who face the brunt of police brutality, has irked fans.
One twitter thread noted, “#dojacatisoverparty is trending bc she was on some video chat site talking to racists and laughing to their racist jokes, talked abt not wanting to b black but at least she’s thick, has a song called dindu nothin which (a phrase that mocks police brutality victims).”
Another added, “She’s biracial I think. There are far too many ppl with Black heritage that think and act as she does. I never listen to her or her type of music. Now I don’t have to feel bad about it. I can tell her.”
Meanwhile, some fans who have had enough of celebrities being canceled over the most random trends came to her defense. “Everyone keeps talking about a thread but this is the only thread and there’s no video and the video I saw is only her talking to men about her comment on Lana’s post so I’m just confused,” wrote one. Some of them even suggested that the singer is planning on releasing another song with a similar title and the N-word. “She also apparently has a song coming out soon ‘ain’t shit’. Shocker!”
One agitated user shared, “White noise gonna get canceled.” However, she hasn’t responded to any of the comments directed at her. Knowing how vocal and active she is on social media, taking into consideration the previous instances where fans wanted to cancel her for different reasons and how it all unfolded, we could soon expect a reaction from her end.
