Doja Cat unveiled her highly-anticipated album, “Scarlet,” on September 22nd, entering a fierce musical battleground with Drake, whose album “For All The Dogs” dropped on the same day. The competition is stiff, with Drake projected to sell around 750K units in the first week, while Doja Cat aims to reach a peak of about 200K units. Nevertheless, “Scarlet” marks a significant shift in her musical direction, and fans are eager to explore this new soundscape.

Doja Cat has been experimenting with her musical style, as evidenced by her recent release, “Demons,” which showcased a departure from her usual sound, drawing comparisons to the style of Baby Keem. While “Demons” was a change of pace, some listeners felt it wasn’t entirely unique.

Now, Doja Cat is back with “Balut,” another track from the album. In this song, Doja takes a more subdued approach, allowing her the space to deliver intricate bars and dissect her foes at her own pace.

What immediately stands out in “Balut” is the ethereal sonic atmosphere created by the drums and piano lines. It’s reminiscent of the kind of production Griselda was pioneering in 2019. However, Doja Cat’s ability to effortlessly rap over this production demonstrates her incredible talent and versatility.

While some may argue that “Balut” echoes a style heard before from different artists, Doja Cat’s unique twist and lyrical prowess keep listeners engaged and showcase her ongoing evolution as a musician. With “Scarlet” out now, fans have the opportunity to dive deeper into Doja Cat’s exploration of new musical territories.

Lyrics

[Intro: Ric Flair]
Remember this, girls
None of you can be first, but all of you can be next
Woo, woo

[Chorus]
Ah, uh, yeah
Uh, wow, uh, yeah
Uh, wow, uh, yeah
It’s like takin’ candy from a baby
Wow, uh, yeah
Uh, ha, uh, yeah
Uh, yeah, uh, wow
It’s like takin’ candy from a (Ride a, ride a)

[Verse 1]
Ride a coattail, this isn’t my fourth meal
Dishes on my ass, still I’m thicker than some oatmeal
Glass houses, I don’t really like to keep my stones there
Oh well, I’ll buy another property for four mill’
Doorman said that you gon’ have to leave your phones there
On a boat, yeah (Boat, yeah), it’s really no fair (No fair)
The only problem that I have and I’ll be so real
I hit the stage and lose the crystals on my toenails (Yeah)
Make the ho kneel, she kill it like an O’Neil
Makin’ mo’ bills ’til I copped the mobile
Can’t drive ’cause I really don’t need to
Got some professionals, they’re really nice people

[Chorus]
Ah, uh, yeah
Uh, wow, uh, yeah
Uh, wow, uh, yeah
It’s like takin’ candy from a baby
Uh, wow, uh, yeah (Mm, yeah, huh)
Uh, wow, uh, yeah
Uh, yeah, uh, wow (Wow, huh, said)
It’s like takin’ candy from a baby

[Verse 2]
So easy, so cheesy, so fresh
So queasy, so nauseous, so sick (Blegh)
Is it coke? Is it crack? Is it meth? (Is it?)
What the fuck do she put in them hits?
I’m the shit, you a real piece of shit
I am needed, you a real needy bitch
I’m competing, you are incompetent
You are fleeting ’cause you can’t copy this
Copy this (Copy this), copy that (Copy that)
Every bitch that is here copycat (Rawr)
Copy the greats, that’s my number one strategy
But beware that you can’t copy stats

[Chorus]
Ah, uh, yeah
Uh, wow, uh, yeah
Uh, wow, uh, yeah
It’s like takin’ candy from a baby
Uh, wow, uh, yeah
Uh, ha, uh, ayy
Uh, yeah, uh, wow
It’s like takin’ candy from a baby
