She continued, ‘But for this next era, I’m going in a more masculine direction.’
Meanwhile, according to her interview with CR Fashion Book in 2022, Doja Cat’s new album will most likely give us a glimpse into the 90s German rave vibe.
The Los Angeles native dropped her debut album Amala, in 2018 and her second album Hot Pink in the following year. She released Planet Her in 2021.
