Doja Cat<\/a> had barely left behind Scarlet<\/em> before diving into her latest release. The Grammy winner made a more rap-focused project with her fourth LP, moving on from the lighter pop and R&B flavor of 2021\u2019s Planet Her<\/em>. The pivot paid off, becoming her third Top 10 album and garnering rave reviews from critics and longtime fans alike.<\/p>\n But Doja Cat is not one to do the same thing twice. She\u2019s got a brand new sound and look for Vie<\/em>. Ahead of its September 26th release, here\u2019s everything we know about the new album.<\/p>\n More from Rolling Stone<\/strong><\/p>\n As listeners can hear on her lead single \u201cJealous Type,\u201d Doja Cat is back to the pop sound that helped her break through. \u201cI do want to be self-aware enough to admit the fact that this is a pop-driven project,\u201d she told\u00a0<\/em>V<\/em> in an interview<\/a> this summer. \u201cI know that I can make pop music, and pop is just that it\u2019s popular. It starts to become a bit of a thing that\u2019s viewed as a sport by people who are just bystanders to it, who enjoy it, but maybe also don\u2019t respect it or what it is, which is just\u00a0music<\/em>. There are some people who don\u2019t see it as music. They see it as if this is some kind of football for girls and gays.\u201d<\/p>\n This news came as a surprise to her listeners: Back in 2023, she called her own pop music \u201cmid & corny\u201d and tweeted that she was done with the sound. \u201cNo more pop music,\u201d she wrote at the time.<\/p>\n Doja Cat is not an Eighties baby but she\u2019s certainly pulling out some deep references to that decade in her rollout. The album\u2019s campaign and editorial aesthetic has made references to everything from classic Grace Jones images to hair metal vixens. During her VMA performance, she transformed into Max Headroom, the computer-generated TV presenter.<\/p>\n \u201cI have so many things that float around in my brain when it comes to the Eighties\u201d she told V<\/em>. \u201cI have no experience of the Eighties or any relation to it in that sense\u2026I wanted to play with that nostalgia by using these Lo-Fi sounds and samples and things that reminded you of something from your childhood, but it wasn\u2019t on the nose Eighties.\u201d<\/p>\n What better modern producer to call for an Eighties-inspired album than Jack Antonoff? Doja Cat linked up with him for Vie<\/em> and sang his praises in a recent interview with Zane Lowe.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019m working with Jack Antonoff and working with a person that\u2019s new in my life,\u201d she said. \u201cAnd so it\u2019s the grappling with talking about something personal and creating something fresh, and then getting to know someone new, and then all of these things fell together really naturally. He\u2019s been such a wonderful person to work with.<\/p>\n On the album cover, Doja Cat\u2019s face is surrounded by roses. It\u2019s a romantic image for a reason: Love in all forms inspired the lyrics on Vie<\/em>.<\/p>\n \u201cThe concept is very pointed towards love, romance, and sex \u2014 and discourse in relationships,\u201d she told Vie<\/em>. \u201cI think right now, you hear a lot of songs about breakups, and a lot of songs about how we\u2019re just kind of sick of men. I have a song like that on this album. But the thing is, there are so many ways to talk about that feeling \u2014 like,\u00a0ugh<\/em>, men. This album is very much about love in a way that reflects how I want it to be in the future \u2014 my hope, my hopefulness. What I hope it could be. Because I remember there was a time when people were talking about wanting to be with each other, and it seems to have gotten a bit more vapid and just sort of like, not real\u2026 not loving, not romantic.\u201d<\/p>\n The catchy, sexy lead single \u201cJealous Type\u201d evokes Prince and his many female prot\u00e9g\u00e9es like Apollonia or Vanity. On it, she sings and raps about her own jealousy and impatience with how a relationship is progressing. On Instagram Live as well as X posts, she further teased lyrics to songs like \u201cActs of Service\u201d and \u201cLipstain\u201d where she says she\u2019s deleted Raya and that a partner has given her keys to their flat.<\/p>\n Best of Rolling Stone<\/strong><\/p>\n Sign up for RollingStone’s Newsletter<\/a>.
