Since the June 25 unveiling of her tertiary album, ‘Planet Her,’ rapper-singer Doja Cat has been the talk of the music world.

Spun to a history-making debut on Spotify, the set’s also fared well on digital sales platforms thanks to the out-of-this-world response to its singles ‘Kiss Me More’ (featuring SZA), ‘You Right’ (featuring The Weeknd), and ‘Need to Know’ as well as a surprise-dropped deluxe edition.

Reportedly on track to boast her highest first-week album sales figures to date, Cat’s looking to see that sales tally climb just a bit higher by unveiling a sizzling performance of housed track, ‘Ain’t Sh*t.’

In addition to nabbing their highest career placements on the Hot 100 with hits like ‘Savage’ and ‘Don’t Start Now’ respectively, they both placed albums in the Billboard 200’s top 10, dominated radio, and even earned multiple GRAMMY nods at the next year’s ceremony for their work.

Both currently sitting inside the Hot 100’s top 20 with genre-blending hits (Lipa with DaBaby-assisted ‘Levitating’ and Stallion with Maroon 5‘s ‘Beautiful Mistakes’), the divas seem poised to continue in that tread with a recent lovefest on social media that proves they’re both eyeing a collaboration in the future.

Indeed, the air is still buzzing as today brought with it the highly anticipated 2018 Grammy nominations unveiled, per usual, via a special announcement weeks before the actual showing.  But, what also comes with the ‘per usual’ announcement are the jaw-dropping surprises, snubs, and all out “shut-outs” that accompany the annual spectacle.

Always a heated debate-starter, the coveted tally saw the likes of chart-toppers Lady Gaga, Ed Sheeran, The Weeknd and more go without mention in (as some fans argue) the correct categories, while hitmakers Taylor Swift, DJ Khaled, & Future got no mention at all.
