After several followers challenged his statement in the replies, he explained in a subsequent post: "Anybody that raps for real .. can listen to her raps and can clearly see she is a rapper. I’m just now finding out there was a debate …,,I’ll just say this I’ve been doin this thing for a minute now .. when that girl drops somethin on one of these “rap” beats ?? You gon see."

"She has great lyrics but shawty be singing," one user wrote back. "She a singer. She a pop star. Is Katy Perry also a rapper?"

Doja made her debut at Coachella a memorable one by bringing out both Tyga and Rico Nasty for performances of "Juicy" and "Tia Tamera." She also debuted a new song titled, "Vegas," which is featured in Baz Luhrmann's upcoming movie, Elvis.
