Doja Cat is blessing fans' ears with a standalone single.
The Paint the Town Red songstress took to X this week to confirm that her hit song Crack will be dropping this May 5. When probed about whether it would be a standalone or part of her forthcoming album, she said:
"it's not the lead i'm just giving it to the people who asked for it." In a follow-up post, she added, "no relation to the album whatsoever."
The announcement comes on the heels of a previous confusion when, back in November 2024, Billboard claimed that Doja Cat had shared and quickly deleted a list of tracks from her forthcoming fifth studio album, Vie, of which Crack was allegedly a part. However, the songstress has confirmed that this is not the case.
Everything we know about Doja Cat's forthcoming fifth studio album, Vie:
On April 13, Doja Cat took to X to share the full list of tracks from her forthcoming album, which reads as follows:
- TURN THE LIGHTS ON
- SLIDE
- ONE MORE TIME
- MAKE IT UP
- LIPSTAIN
- KINK
- JEALOUS TYPE
- I LIKE YOU
- HAPPY
- GORGEOUS
- COUPLES THERAPY
- COME BACK
- CARDS
- AMEN
- ALL MINE
- ACTS OF SERVICE
"dont ask me where crack is rn," she jokingly captioned the post.
The album will serve as a follow-up to Scarlet and Scarlet II: Claude, though at the time of writing, the exact release date remains unclear.
In other news, in a now-deleted post just this week, the songstress also took to the microblogging platform to call on all chart-obsessed fans to introspect:
"the amount of streams on a song isn't indicative of the quality or effort put into it. If you disagree with this you could be having an episode and should seek love from the outside," she suggested. "Go for a run. Take a look in the mirror and ask yourself in the safety of your mind if you are proud of that person or if you even like what you see. Next, do not punish yourself. Do not sabotage. Rather take it as an opportunity to become an even better version of who you once were. Look at it as the beginning of a fulfilling life. You deserve an adventure. You deserve to feel the sun on your skin. Don't trade that for being on this app with the blinds drawn. You deserve more."
Notably, the Say So songstress has never been one to shy away, and in the past, she lost 250,000 followers online in one go when she took up her grievances with them. Though it seems like she's now on good terms, as Doja Cat's Crack is just 2 days away from hitting streaming platforms.
