Doja Cat has issued a warning to her white fans over the use of the n-word during a recent live performance.
In a video that surfaced on TikTok over the weekend, the “Paint the Town Red” rapper can be seen performing her 2021 track “Ain’t shyt” during her Scarlet Tour stop in Omaha, Nebraska.
Before getting to the expletive-laden hook (“N-ggas ain’t shyt, come up in your crib/ All up in your fridge, can’t pay rent”), Doja gives specific instructions to her Caucasian fans in attendance.
“Watch your mouth if you’re white,” she told the crowd, some of whom could be heard giggling at her command.
Despite her stance on white fans reciting the n-word at her shows, Doja Cat has faced racial backlash in the past. In 2020, an old video circulated of the Grammy-winner allegedly engaging in racist jokes in an incel chatroom.
A song she wrote called “Dindu Nuffiin” — which is defined as a “pejorative term used to mock blacks that commit crimes, and the excuses that’s made for them” — also surfaced online.
After some called for her to be cancelled, Doja issued a lengthy response on social media in which she apologized for “upsetting and hurting” her fans.
“I want to address what’s been happening on Twitter,” she wrote. “I’ve used public chat rooms to socialize since I was a child. I shouldn’t have been on some of those chat room sites, but I personally have never been involved in any racist conversations. I’m sorry to everyone that I offended.
