  • Doja Cat features rapping persona in 80s-inspired jam ‘Jealous Type’: Watch the video

    Three days ago, American superstar Doja Cat released the elaborate official music video for her eighties-inspired track ‘Jealous Type’. In the stunning visual, the genre-blending artist often referred to as the “Queen of Pop-Rap” explains what spawned the insecurity she’s experienced, linked to the ex-girlfriend of the person in question:

    “Said, “You wanna do what now with who?”
    I don’t need a pin drop or text tonight
    I ain’t even coming out with you
    You don’t wanna show me off to your ex or your friends tonight
    Nigga, you must be on Molly ’cause y’all ain’t kick it when we started up
    And if she really was a friend like you said she was
    I would’ve been locked in, but I called your bluff”.

    Watch the eye-popping video directed by Boni Mata below to see her strut her stuff in a leopard print swimsuit. The single is from her forthcoming album ‘Vie’, set to release on September 26, 2025.

    Don Toliver talks to Apple Music about working with Doja Cat

    Zane Lowe: You and Doja, man. This whole idea of getting her on a song and just hearing it back and knowing that you’ve got this collaboration, how’d that feel?

    Don Toliver: Crazy, honestly. Doja’s very talented, it was very … It was like we got in there and got it done, man. We both love the ‘F1’, so it was really a no-brainer. It was so crazy.

    Zane Lowe: It must be nice as well to work in soundtrack land and not be so focused on, just for a second, on 12, 15, 20 songs that have to be a cohesive body of work for you. But just to be able to single in on one song and just make it as great as possible.

    Don Toliver: Exactly. It makes the whole thing way more locked in, tunnel vision to the whole idea, the vision. It just made everything so fun. It’s crazy.

    Zane Lowe: What are you working on, man? Can I be cheeky and ask you how music is for you right now?

    Don Toliver: Music is doing me well, man. I’m just being creative. I’m having fun. I’m producing more of my records. It’s like I’ve been recording for so long and just figuring out all these different melodies, and just starting to get deeper and deeper into just the whole production behind all my music. It’s getting crazy, honestly.

    Don Toliver talks to Apple Music about playing piano more

    Zane Lowe: I hope I’m not betraying trust, but I’m sure it’s pretty cool because you know how much I appreciate both you and your better half, man, and the family that you’ve built. It’s always great catching up with Kali and we had a really good conversation as always, and she mentioned that you’ve been on the piano and taking yourself even deeper into your craft.

    Don Toliver: Yeah. No, I have. I’ve been playing the piano, man. Just playing all types of different keyboards, honestly. And it’s just like I got a feel for certain melodies and things, so I’m just exploring. It’s fun. It’s amazing. Playing the piano with my son, it’s fun.
