Doja Cat Says “Oops, My Bad” to Pop Music, Swims Back Into the Sparkly Chaos Like a Bedazzled Mermaid With Beats

Buy Me A Coffee

Doja Cat has officially backpedaled so hard, she might’ve invented time travel. Remember when she swore off pop music like it was a toxic ex with an Android? Yeah, about that…

In a move no one saw coming—but everyone low-key manifested—Queen Doja is crawling back to the glittery, synthy arms of pop, and she’s bringing an entire Lisa Frank-colored tsunami with her. Grab your neon scrunchies and emotionally damaged Tamagotchis, because her next album Vie is going FULL NOSTALGIA MODE.

Let’s rewind: back in 2023, Doja got on Twitter and declared pop music dead to her, then doubled down and roasted her own rap bars like a burnt marshmallow, calling them “mid and corny.” (Girl, same, but you didn’t have to say it out loud.)

Now? Sis has done a full U-turn, hair in the wind, windows down, blasting bubblegum beats like the main character she is. She told V Magazine she’s “swimming upstream” creatively. Basically, she’s reverse salmoning back to her roots. Pop Doja 2.0 is loading.

“I do want to be self-aware enough to admit the fact that this is a pop-driven project,” she said, with the energy of someone sheepishly texting their ex “U up?” after 3 mimosas.

But make no mistake: Vie isn’t your average cotton-candy pop album. It’s giving retro, it’s giving vibes, it’s giving “you’re 9 years old again watching VHS tapes at your cousin’s sleepover.” The 80s are back, but in a cool, lo-fi, “I stole my mom’s Walkman and now I have personality” kind of way.

Doja says this album has more rapping than singing, but her vocal glow-up is real. “I could not f—king sing,” she admitted, like someone who just discovered AutoTune was hiding in their soul all along. “Now I’m a literal flute.”

And just in case you forgot: this year she also casually slayed features on three bangers—“Lose My Mind” with Don Toliver (for the F1 movie soundtrack, because fast cars and feelings), “Just Us” with Jack Harlow (eyebrow game strong), and “Born Again” with LISA and Raye (aka pop’s version of the Avengers).

Moral of the story? Pop music is back on Doja’s roster, and it’s wearing leg warmers, lip gloss, and emotional depth. Brace yourselves.
