Doja Cat wasn’t about to waste her breath.
After a clip from Apple Music’s Rap Life Review went viral, people started rehashing old drama and questioning if she really belongs in Hip-Hop.
Host Eddie admitted she “raps well” but still said, “She’s not hip-hop.”
Ebro Darden took it even further by bringing up her past, like the “racial chat rooms showing feet” scandal and that time she wore a Sam Hyde T-shirt (Hyde being a comedian tied to neo-Nazi circles.).
He also asked if the real issue was her being “too light-skinned” or “playing with white people too much.”
However, on Wednesday, she took to X saying: “I don’t want to stand up for myself in regards to all of these lies being told because to be honest I don’t think it will make a difference… I’ve just learned to let ignorance be and let people learn and use their own discernment.”
She doubled down, making it clear she’s not here to prove a thing: “If you watch the ‘news’ and believe it all what kind of person does that make you? I’m enough. My music is enough. My word is enough. Everything following that is everyone else’s problem but mine.”
Then, just like that, she deleted the post.
This isn’t the first time Doja has had to defend herself. She was previously accused of participating in online chatrooms linked to white supremacist groups. At the time, she shut it down, saying:
“I’m a Black woman. Half of my family is Black from South Africa and I’m very proud of where I come from.”
Yet, no matter how many times she explains herself, the internet never forgets.
