New York rapper Nas isn’t worried about hurting feelings. The hip-hop heavyweight has the Internet going nuts after taking a direct shot at fellow rap artist Doja Cat on his new “Ultra Black” song.
Nas Disses Doja Cat
On the must-hear new release, Nasty Nas doesn’t censor himself or rely on a subliminal line to get at Doja. The rap star completely went at her with a reference to the drama she’s stirred in recent months about not fully embracing her Black roots.
“Sometimes I’m over-black, even my clothes are black/Cash Money with the white tee and the soldier rag/We goin’ ultra black, unapologetically black/The opposite of Doja Cat, Michael Blackson black” -Nas’ “Ultra Black” Single
High-Key Details
The Internet wasted no time and applauded Nas for coming at Doja. Social media shared ample memes shining light on the rap legend’s verbal jab.

Wait, There’s More
In July 2020, Cat went to her Twitter page to speak out. Doja questioned why she recently had support from people viewing her as a Black musician and then suddenly having her African America roots taken away.
“Remember when people said I was black when I had a #1 along side 3 other black women but now the same people wanna say I’m white? Maybe I’m not the one here with “identity issues”. ? … Deleted my last tweet because someone brought up a very valid point about it. My response was that I’m standing up for myself because I know what the truth is.” -Doja Cat’s Twitter
Before You Go
In mid-June 2020, Doja Cat jumped back on Twitter with her first tweets since May 27. It didn’t take long before Doja found herself in heated conversations with users.
