Doja Cat may have started with week in headlines thanks to the release of her out-of-this-world ‘Planet Her’ single ‘Get Into It (Yuh),’ but she ended it in headlines for someone else’s music.

Rappers $NOT and A$AP Rocky joined forces for the February 4 unveiling of their collaboration which bears the ‘Say So’ hitmaker’s name.  The latest single from his February 11-due new album, ‘Ethereal,’ controversy attached to the tune arrived once Cat’s fans – affectionately called #Kittens – took a listen to the lyrics.

I f*cked that b*tch named Doja Cat, pull up in a Scat Pack (Haha) / Windows tinted all black (Go, go), bulletproof and all that (Go),” $NOT spits on the chorus of the tune.

Just hours after its release, chatter around the song landed on the desk of Doja. Hop inside to see how she responded.
