[LIL WAYNE + DOJA CAT] “SHIMMY” IS PURRFECT

How do you cancel someone as creative and unique as Doja Cat? The truth is that you don’t. As the rising princess of rap, Doja Cat is taking her thrown and throwing it back. These past few months she has collaborated with Nicki Minaj, Tyga and now Lil Wayne. With the whole Young Money squad supporting her, she has a strong support system for when Twitter throws shade. No amount of unwarranted hate can dim her shine- especially after the release of “Shimmy.” 

Her latest collab with Lil Wayne is another glowing moment in time for her as she opens up the song with one of the greats. Off the deluxe album Funeral, this song is certainly the kill shot. 

Listen to “Shimmy” here:

 

Adding to the ridiculously catchy chorus, Doja plays on the phrase, “Shimmy Shimmy Ya” for this sexy hip hop track that will make your eyes roll back. The versatility of Doja can be noted throughout as she takes a generic concept and gives it a new playful spin. Wayne puts it perfectly as he states, I’ma close my eyes and imagine you is Doja Cat.” Aren’t we all Wayne? 

This song has Doja’s touch. Unfortunately, she isn’t present in the room so, like Wayne, we just have to close our eyes and let her talent speak for her- which is seductively commanding.
