On Friday the 27-year-old singer took to Insta Stories to voice her opinion. The star, born Amala Ratna Zandile Dlamini, explained that she supports stars she admires like Cardi B and Nicki Minaj but has no respect for online haters.
‘People don’t wanna accept im dissing them so they try to pin it on cardi nicki and meg and every other female rapper,’ said the artist.
The Victoria’s Secret model then added, ‘I don’t diss rappers I diss critics. Stay bored. Stay reaching.’
That was just the start of her messages.
Cat also said, ‘I don’t diss people i’m inspired by i don’t diss people I look up to.’

The cover girl then shared: ‘I don’t diss people who don’t attack and harass me every day.
‘YALL do. SHE doesn’t. THEY don’t. Y’all are the problem,’ referring to her social media followers.
She then talked down to her haters.
‘TO BE 100% CLEAR because I know you all need me to talk REEEEAL SLOOOOOOW for you; I’m not dissing anyone but the f***in phonies in my comment sections.’
This post comes just after she announced a change to her upcoming album Scarlet.
Her album cover looked a lot like the album cover from the German band Chaver. Both were designed by Portland-based artist Dusty Ray.
And both albums will be released on September 22.
‘Updated cover,’ Doja captioned the image, which shows a spider with pearls as its head and tummy.
She does not diss: ‘People don’t wanna accept im dissing them so they try to pin it on cardi nicki and meg and every other female rapper,’ said the artist.

Earlier this week Cat announced her new album, Scarlet, will be released on September 22.
The star took to Instagram to unveil the album cover for her follow-up to 2021’s Planet Her, which is a red tarantula.
This summer, Doja has released the singles Attention and viral sensation Paint The Town Red, despite the star recently vowing to stop making ‘palatable, marketable and sellable’ music.
The Say So hitmaker claimed that all her future music will be ‘authentic’ after she channeled all the ‘rage’ she felt toward the music industry into an eclectic album that traverses ‘rap, soul and R’n’B music with jazz’.
In a cover interview with V magazine – which saw the star free the nipple in a mesh top – she said: ‘I have thrown fits my whole career because I have been making music that didn’t allow me to have a mental release.

‘I have been making music that is palatable, marketable and sellable, that has allowed me to be where I am now.
‘These upcoming projects are going to be very different compared to everything I have done and I am excited about that.
‘I do not care if people are not.’
Doja added: ‘I have made pop music. I’m currently making rap, soul and R’n’B music with jazz elements.’
The singer-and-rapper previously admitted her last two albums were ‘cash-grabs’.
The Kiss Me More hitmaker – who can be known to retract her social media statements – told millions of her followers that she would not be putting out ‘mediocre pop’ and claimed Planet Her and 2019’s Hot Pink were just about making money.

She also went back on a previous post in which she announced her new album would be called Hellmouth.
She tweeted: ‘planet her and hot pink were cash-grabs and yall fell for it. now i can go disappear somewhere and touch grass with my loved ones on an island while yall weep for mediocre pop. (sic)’
She added: ‘its not called hEllMoUth either its called ‘First of All’ and yes I’m announcing the album title right now. (sic)’
However, the title is still yet to be confirmed.
Doja previously teased an entirely different project, telling Variety: ‘I want to explore punk. But not pop-punk. I feel like we have enough pop-punk artists right now. And if there needs to be more, then let there be more, but I don’t think I’m the one to do it.
‘I want to explore more of a raw, unfiltered, hardcore punk sort of thing. It’s just something that I’m doing for my own personal fun – getting some drummers and guitarists together. And I don’t even know if that’s gonna make it out there.’
