Doja Cat’s latest Instagram post has sparked speculation among fans that the Grammy-winning artist is taking a shot at her father. On Sunday (May 26), Doja Cat shared a series of photos of herself looking surprised and covered with a blanket. However, it was the caption that caught her followers’ attention, leading many to believe she was addressing personal issues with her father.
“I’m gonna turn you into my next project and you’re gonna have to listen to it for the rest of your godforsaken life,” the 28-year-old artist wrote under the post. This cryptic message led fans to speculate that Doja Cat was subtly criticizing her father, a topic she has rarely addressed publicly.
Fans quickly took to the comments section to express their support and interpret the message. One follower wrote, “You became a star in his absence [raised hands emoji] are star you shall remain,” praising her resilience. Another added, “Baddies without daddies, UNITE [nail painting emoji],” showing solidarity with those who have had similar experiences.
One user empathized with Doja Cat by using her middle name and highlighting a broader issue: “Welcome to the club Zandile. South Africa is filled with deadbeat fathers unfortunately [crying emoji].” This comment hints at the shared struggles faced by many in dealing with absentee fathers.
Earlier the same day, the blog page Onsite! reported a different version of Doja Cat’s caption, where she directly addressed her father’s alleged issues with medication. “Dad, lemme know when/if you need me to re-up your makeup cabinet cuz you a b***h,” she reportedly wrote. This more direct attack suggests a strained and contentious relationship between the artist and her father.
Doja Cat has generally kept her family matters private, but this isn’t the first time her family has made headlines. In January 2024, her brother, Raman Dalithando Dlamini, faced allegations of verbal and physical abuse from their mother. These claims led to a restraining order against him. While speaking to The Shade Room, Dlamini denied the allegations, stating that they were false.
