Nas made his triumphant return on Friday (August 14) with the release of “Ultra Black,” the inaugural single from his forthcoming album King’s Disease. Subsequently, Doja Cat began to trend on Twitter after fans heard the blatant diss the Illmatic legend threw in her direction.
“Sometimes I’m over-black, even my clothes are black,” he raps in the first verse. “Cash Money with the white tee and the soldier rag/We goin’ ultra black, unapologetically black/The opposite of Doja Cat, Michael Blackson black.”
Doja has been under the microscope since May when old videos of herself allegedly lurking in racist chatrooms surfaced online. The clips dropped just a day after she was named in Lana Del Rey’s controversial Instagram rant about double standards in the music industry.
Although it was difficult to discern why exactly the #dojacatisoverparty hashtag started trending, some people claimed she said she would “never” want to be black, while others alleged she used to strip online for racist white men. The “Say So” artist was also accused of “forcing herself to vomit, taking a crap on camera, showing herself naked and everything horrible.”

Another video also surfaced for a song Doja did called “Dindu Nuffin,” a phrase that is considered a racial slur used by members of the alt-right community to denounce Black victims of police brutality who claim to be innocent.
In June, Doja issued an apology via Instagram Live for her questionable past, saying, “You won’t find anything of me being racist because I haven’t been racist and I’m well aware that I’m recorded in chat rooms. But, I just wanted you guys to know, for my fans, if you felt disappointed or embarrassed, I’m sorry. It is disappointing to…To be honest, it took me a while to understand what the fuck was going on.”
Doja’s fall from grace happened shortly after her “Say So (Remix)” with Nicki Minaj hit No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100. She has yet to respond to Nas’ jab, but check out Twitter’s very mixed reactions below.
doja cat is a truly underrated artist with songs like say so and like that. She even got to collaborate with weeknd.
Nas will never come anywhere near her with wack songs like ether, that awful cop song on nasir, and so much other crap. Jay z wins over him every time.
TF you talking about,
And this is why you don’t smoke crack…
I’m not on crack. Although I may need to be on crack in order to get nas’s wack rapping out of my head
Wack
We all know you are Jigga’s side piece you soy boy lol.
Hello Jay Z Stan! You still have your lips greased up! He is waiting on you in the back. Do not let Beyoncé catch you…,she will then come out with another Lemonade song! Hahahahahaha you punk mother sucker!!!!
Further proof Dojas fans are weirdos and idiots
Lame Jay Z Stan… keep Licking and sucking his pole… you are Jay z’s number 1 pole grabber! Nas king of NY! #KingDisease
Fun fact: I once dumped a chick because she somehow prefers nas’s wack shit over jay z’s.
Fun fact: you’re a virgin with a crush on Joe Camel
Nas didn’t have to diss her. She’s young and doing her thing.
Nas better have some grimy rap on his new album.
The hell if she dont, if she want to make money and capitalize on a culture than get into country music or metal, she is literally a culture vulture
Okay. That’s your opinion. I think she makes great new music.
So you are really saying Nas diss her. Really… anyone shut the F up okay! Either you with us or not with us! That goes for Kanye and Crews!!! F them!
That wasn’t a diss …
That’s what I’m saying!!! That’s why rap sucks bc wordplay is too complex and so people settle for nursery chant mumble raps. RIP hiphop!
Twitter is a strange world. Do social media Dictacts The Culture or Visa Versa? Some People Are Not Just allowed to Speak Like that, Who In their Fingers Are Extra Right ? are you, Behind the Keyboard Perfect? Imagine what we Know of You? Sit Back And Enjoy the Sonics Cause The Message is Vastly More Important Sometimes Than The Messenger.
Saying your the opposite of something is a diss?
i could google it, but who is doja?
Ehmm… i guess NaS didn’t get the memo. From Doja Cat’s Wikipedia page “Her mother, Deborah Elizabeth Sawyer, is a J____h-American painter” – That means she is God’s chosen people. I think NaS needs to apologise, he’s not allowed to criticize our master race like that. NaS should indeed cool it with the anti-semitic remarks.
Hmmm… a master race that is built to get the flesh burned off their bodies by the very thing that gives every form of life the ability to exist… Chill SuN!
Warmest regards,
GOD
Wow, Genius, Way to interpret Sarcasm! But thanks for scientifically ignorant, hate-filled little comment anyway. PU55Y.
????? man F the mom and daughter!
Thank God some people still remember broke ass Nas being a drunk woman beater to Kelis. I guess now he’s dissing women, was he abused as a child, scared to smile, they called him ugly? LOL. I really hope King HOV or Queen BEY can drop a surprise album on the same day Nas is dropping and steal his spotlight, just like they did when he dropped Nasir and the Lost Trash 2. Please, to get my mind off this trash. It’s the ROC in here!
Gay Z from Cock-a-fella Records?
That’s the line you chose to quote there?
He is back! The guy that sucking Jay Z pole for 25 years and counting. I know you wish Jay Z can come up with a clever line like Nas. This why I told you for years Nas is the true King of New York! You never listen. Real talk… you try to attack Nas’s character where Jay Z got his butt beat in an elevator by his own damn sister in law! Bruh please… Nas is a true Mc wher Jay Z has turned into a Pop Star. You know it and I know it so lay-off Nas’s nuts and keep sucking Jays.
It Is a diss for the idiots below. People forgot Nas went RIGHT AT Kobe after the Colorado incident. Nas can open up a can if he wants to. We already know what he did to Jigga
Yea he lost to Jay…”you know who, did you know what, with you know who, let’s keep that between me and you” Game…set…match. Then Jay went “too far” on SupaUgly…if you went “too far” in a rap battle, you won
super ugly was trash
its an underrated masterpiece.
He went too far alright….all the way to Paris! Nigga wanted to fight nas afterwards LMAO
That is a blatant… lost to Jay Z. Man, Nas ate that boy up! Ether…. nothing touching Ether! Even the young folks are still using the same word. Nas Ether sits on a Mantel alone. Be for real bruh!
Doesn’t sound like a diss to me, unapologetically black, the opposite of Doja cat. She apologised for her black comments
Literally just a clever line…amazing what qualifies as a diss these days
Song sounds like something Common would’ve done on Finding Forever – pretty good but needs harder drums!
This is one of the problems with rap becoming the most popular genre in the world. People who don’t know shit about the genre they’re talking about suddenly feel entitled to give their opinion on it because “everybody” listens to it. It’s a clever bar that works on multiple layers. 1. Doja apologized for her anti-black controversy, which is the opposite of being “unAPOLOGetically black”. 2. Doja is light-skinned as opposed to Michael Blackson. Nas is saying he wants a girl with a darker complexion who isn’t ashamed of her African features, which is a reversal of the common hip-hop cliche that all rappers do is “leave they ass for a white girl” when they get famous. Which is a prescient message at a time when BLM and all this black awareness shit is in the culture. It’s a way of drawing his line in a sand using two aspects of a popular celebrity (the racism incident and her actual complexion) in order to make his pro-black stance accessible to a wider audience. Like a true MC or stand-up comedian would do: taking weighty social concepts and presenting them in a way that’s funny, thought-provoking, unexpected, and easily understood by the general public.
For first time in your life u sound reasonable.
People should stop acting as if Doja Cat or any female rapper in Hip-hop can’t get touched. She’s a rapper just like everybody else. There’s nothing special about her.
Emcees use clever punchlines that will be memorable. Nas is an emcee so.. what’s the issue. It has people talking. I would say that line was a success.
#facts
His flows are always smooth as fuk
Interesting.
People lose their minds over a single line. Smdh. It wasn’t even a diss (in the traditional sense), it was a punchline
How about a remix like: unapologetically black, son / The opposite of Michael Jackson
Even though what he said was true facts, I’m not happy that he gave a bottom feeder no talent hoe like her the multi million dollar promotion and attention when he said that. Now overnight she’s relevant again smh
I haven’t even heard the song but the damn internet will take a 3 minute or longer song and hype up one line rendering the rest of the song less meaningful than it was
Nas got that disgusting heffer Khia pregant. I dont wanna hear him speaking about any beautiful women like Doja Cat. This little 4 foot midget was the original Tory Lanez.
Nas got Kelis pregnant you dumb f. U ck
Is there really a difference? They are both disgusting heffers. Like yo momma!
Perfect song for this current time. Nas too King!
