Doja Cat took to Instagram Live to get 'completely honest' on accusations of racist language
The same tweet thread also made note of a song Doja Cat made in 2015 called"Dindu Nuffin" and drew attention to its title, a term apparently used by the alt-right as a racist slur to refer to people of color who've been victims of police brutality and have asserted their innocence. These connections were also linked to past tweets of Doja Cat's where she used homophobic slurs — allegations sheHer Instagram note addressed each of these allegations.
As for"Dindu Nuffin," she said,"It was in no way tied to anything outside of my own personal experience. It was written in response to people who often used that term to hurt me. I made an attempt to flip its meaning, but recognize that it was a bad decision to use the term in my music." This note traveled widely on social media, but Doja wasn't done yet. Late Monday night , she hopped on Instagram Live for a 30-minute broadcast where she aimed to, as she said,"debunk everything." The entire clip was captured and reposted by fans."My behavior isn't something that always needs to be followed," she said in the video, also noting that her apology note was"an edited piece" workshopped by herself and her team."I'm not perfect.
That honesty included a frank exploration of perceived self-hate."I love my skin color. I think I'm beautiful," she said."The times that maybe there was a photo that was lightened to a certain point — that shit just happens. I am not behind editing my photos." Her video also addressed"Dindu Nuffin," which she called"maybe the worst song in the entire world" and"lyrically lost.
The video goes on from there, delving into more topics on a bulleted list Doja Cat has in front of her. Watch the entire thing in the fan-captured recording above.
