Doja Cat, an LA-based singer and songwriter, has over 22 million Instagram followers who tune in to her Instagram Live videos to hear her sing improvised songs about strep throat, animals, and whatever else she’s feeling. Doja has a large music catalog, in addition to her spontaneous social media songs.

1. Amala Zandile Dlamini is her real name.

Despite the fact that her Jewish-American mother and South African father named her, Doja chose to adopt a stage name and persona. “I was heavily addicted to weed and weed culture when I began rapping,” Doja explained, “so when I began rapping, I thought of the word ‘doja’ and how it sounds like a girl’s name.”

2. Rihanna and D’Angelo are two of her musical influences.

Drake, Nicki Minaj, Pharell, and Erykah Badu are among the artists she has credited with inspiring her, and they may have influenced her sexually explicit and open nature.

3. Her South African ancestors have influenced some of her musical preferences

“Yeah, this album is a lot more African influenced,” she said, adding that her heritage is sometimes used to sample other genres of music to create something entirely new. I can sample Blink-182, but I’d like to add an African vocal sample. The entire song transports you to a tropical forest.”

4. She Isn’t the Creator of Her Favorite Memes

Doja’s “Mooo!” meme/music video hybrid is well-known, but she tells Crack magazine that her favorite internet meme is the “it’s an avocaaado!” video. Her social media accounts are littered with meme references, allowing her to connect with her followers on a deeper level.

5. She Tried Dancing Before Singing

Doja admitted to dabbling in break dancing when she was younger. “I danced in a crew and competed around Los Angeles in organized underground cypher/battles,” Doja told Dazed.

6. What is her biggest turn-on? A large nose

She stated that she wants a partner with a large nose, but we can’t elaborate on why.

7. Her favorite sensation is when her “pants fit perfectly.”

“I have a lot of trouble because I have a huge ass and nothing else on my body can match it.” It’s as if I’ve taken the lower half of someone else’s body. I’ll be on top of the world if I can find pants that hug everything and act like Spanx,” Doja said.

8. She Adopts a ’90s-Inspired Fashion and Music Aesthetic

You’ll notice a lot of neon, bodysuits, and Clueless-style outfits on her Instagram feed.
