Doja Cat on Tour

If you've heard Doja Cat spit her game then you already know what kind of confidence and swagger she brings to her delightfully vulgar and wholly visionary combination of rap, R&B and pop. The Los Angeles star sounds on top of the world whether she's goofing on her viral novelty hit "Mooo!" (in which she pretends to be a cow) or laying down the law for would-be lovers on "Rules": "Said play with my p***y, but don't play with my emotions." All of that style and substance carries over to the stage, where Doja Cat gleefully works the crowd swathed in wigs and clothes that complement her loud and kaleidoscopically shifting vocals. Blessed with the rugged and raw mike skills of a veteran MC, and the high-flying mind of a pop auteur, Doja Cat throws shows that fans and newcomers alike aren't quick to forget.

Doja Cat in Concert

Doja Cat was born Amalaratna Zandile Dlamini to a South African actor (he appeared in the Whoopi Goldberg film Sarafina!) and an accomplished Jewish-American painter. She grew up primarily in the suburbs of Los Angeles, channeling her early desire and talent for performance into dance: tap, ballet, jazz, breakdancing, etcetera. But she discovered music before finishing high school and hasn't looked back. Inspired by her teenage love for marijuana, she named herself Doja Cat and self-released a spacey soul-meets-rap cut called "So High" in 2013. By the end of 2014, she would be signed to RCA, hear that same song on an episode of Empire and drop her debut EP, Purrr!. Boosted by viral challenges along the way, Doja Cat's songs slowly crept into the mainstream as her approach became more polished. Her 2018 full-length Amala zeroed in on a winning combination of unabashed sexuality and unrestrained creativity, while 2019's Hot Pink album, with guest spots by Tyga, Gucci Mane and Smino, showcased an artist whose skill for smart, often hilarious rhyme-spitting had grown in lockstep with her ability to craft unique pop songs powered by hooky melodies.
