Hey everyone, this is DJ Louis here, just dropping a snippet of our recently published episode

where my friend Raua Kamera and I are processing Doja Kat's new album, Scarlet. This is obviously

a bit of a companion piece to our episode yesterday about Doja Cat and her entire career up to this

point. And on this particular episode, we're focusing explicitly on Scarlett,

Doja's new album, which dropped last week, and we're getting into it from all angles.

This is a big pivot album, a very different kind of album than Doja has released us far.

It's a much more straight-ahead rap album. It's dealing a lot with the public narratives that

have surrounded her, related to her beefs with her fans and her controversial new romantic relationship, etc. So I'm dropping a snippet

of that episode here. If you want to hear the rest of it, you can subscribe at patreon.com

slash pop pantheon or click the link in the show notes of this episode to get the rest of this

episode as well as up to three bonus episodes

of the show per month and a lot of other perks. So without further ado, here's a snippet of my

conversation with Rwya Kamer about Scarlet. All right, so what did you make of in the context

of all of that, the sort of lead singles for this record and like what they portended? So we're

talking about attention,

paint the town red and demons. Like we have a group of three songs that kind of gave us a bit

of maybe a roadmap or an inclination. What do you think of those songs and what did what did

they, before you heard this music, what did they portend for you? How did they make you feel?

Were they exciting to you? Did they feel new?

Did they feel different from the planet her?

Doja Cat that we knew before?

Like what was your relationship to that music like?
