In a recent Apple Music interview, Doja Cat discussed the rumors surrounding her Scarlet tracks. Some fans have alleged that she is a Satanist. Doja Cat clarified that her references to the devil in her music and visuals are simply artistic decisions and do not always convey the meaning that social media users presume. She expressed that while she welcomes interpretation of her work, the ongoing speculation can be tiresome and has caused her frustration.
“I like the idea of I did it on purpose and it’s this big ruse to make people react, but I also like the idea of—what it is is that I love this piece of visual art,” Doja explained. “I like this visual for this sound. So, I chose that visual and I applied it to the sound and people made up what they want, which is what you do with art. You interpret it how you want to interpret it.”
