Doja Cat Has Zero Interest in Beefing With Her Peers: 'Grow the F*ck Up'
"Please stop f*cking grasping for straws," Doja told sh*t stirrers on Friday.
Doja Cat is offering up a timely reminder to those who insist on asserting otherwise that she isn’t interested in “rAp bEefS.”
In a since-removed tweet on Friday, the same day Doja rolled out the truly excellent Scarlet-expanding Claude, she urged those trying to point to certain lyrics as signs of a feud-in-progress to cease “grasping for straws.” The 28-year-old also pointed out the general kindness she’s experienced from fellow artists in her career thus far.
“No one has done anything to me for me to even want to begin to diss them,” Doja said. “All my peers been nice as fuck and welcoming of me. please stop fucking grasping for straws here. i dont play these games you all are playing. its incredibly childish and quite frankly the most depressing shit ive ever come across on the internet. grow the fuck up. i dont get in ‘rAp bEefS.'"

To be clear, these remarks likely have nothing to do with recent J. Cole and Kendrick Lamar developments. Instead, they appear to be tied to Scarlet 2 Claude opener “Acknowledge Me,” which features mentions (but not disses) of Cardi B and Carly Rae Jepsen.
Here are the lines in question, straight from Doja's preferred lyrics provider Apple Music:

In other recent tweets, Doja explained the Carly Rae line to those unable to muster up the understanding for themselves (it’s a coke reference) and also urged someone asking about an alleged Cardi B diss to “get a fuckin life.” The song itself, notably, sees the narrator aiming their comments at what sounds like a former romantic partner.

As we recently highlighted here, Scarlet 2 Claude gets its title from a Disney character deemed a "total cunt" by Doja. The collection sees the upcoming Coachella headliner recruiting ASAP Rocky and Teezo Touchdown for "Urrrge!!!!!!!!!!" and “Masc,” respectively.
Below, catch the Doja and Jamal Peters-directed video for the latter.
