Doja Cat BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

Doja Cat has commanding headlines this week with the official reveal that her highly anticipated fifth studio album Vie is set to drop September 26 accompanied by the upcoming single Jealous Type which hits streaming platforms August 21 at 8 p.m. Eastern. This marks a bold pivot back to pop for Doja as discussed in her interview with V Magazine where she described pop music as a universal language and made it clear she’s set on breaking stereotypes about the genre. The new track Jealous Type has an unmistakable 80s pop flair and explores themes of romance and self-identity. Early reactions have sparked buzz since Doja premiered the song first in a live set at San Francisco’s Outside Lands Festival last Friday, drawing huge crowds both onsite and via Amazon Prime Video’s livestream. The performance itself wasn’t just musically charged but delivered a visual spectacle as Doja Cat took the stage in full 80s mode: a zebra print bustier, matching leggings, and a platinum blonde wig styled by Brett Nelson and team, a look which has since gone viral across Instagram and TikTok.

Her promotional push is characteristically bold, with a Vie hotline offering personalized messages to fans and a tie-in campaign with Marc Jacobs that featured Jealous Type in playful commercials as Doja danced through NYC in a beach chair—drawing praise for the single’s girlish and pop-centric energy according to ELLE. On social media Doja Cat has been fiercely defending her status as a rapper amid ongoing debates about her lyrical skills, clapping back at critics on Twitter and Instagram that her writing shouldn’t have to be “dumbed down” for mass approval. She credited influences like Flying Lotus’s Captain Murphy and Atmosphere dispelling notions that women in rap must constantly compete, instead urging for expressive authenticity.

Outside festival shows weren’t Doja’s only public appearances. She also played a surprise late-night set at San Francisco’s Oasis nightclub, teasing new album tracks in a much more intimate and interactive DJ set, sending local fans into a frenzy for last-minute tickets—an event widely shared by club regulars and photographers in the queer scene.

Speculation is swirling that she might announce more pop-up shows before the album launch but nothing is verified yet. Across social media Jealous Type and Vie have trended heavily with fans dissecting snippets, visuals, and lyrics ahead of release. Major outlets from Rolling Stone to BET and fashion sites have spotlighted Doja’s 80s revival both musically and visually. With Grammy wins already under her belt and strategic engagement with both hardcore and mainstream fans, Doja Cat’s current moves point to a potentially defining new chapter in her career—not just as a pop provocateur but as a creative force intent on rewriting her own narrative.
