Woman (Doja Cat song)

"Woman" is a song by American rapper and singer Doja Cat from her third studio album Planet Her (2021). It has been described as a fusion of Afrobeats, pop, and R&B, with the lyrical themes of divine femininity and feminism. After gaining popularity in Europe, where it entered the top 10 in countries like Greece, France, Denmark, Switzerland, Lithuania and Portugal, the song impacted Italian radio airplay as the album's fourth single on October 1, 2021. It was sent to American mainstream and rhythmic contemporary radios on December 14, 2021. The song was a sleeper success, spending several months on the charts before slowly climbing to the top 10. For the chart dated May 7, 2022, the song reached number seven on the Billboard Hot 100, nearly a year after it debuted.[1] "Woman" received three nominations at the 65th Annual Grammy Awards including Record of the Year, Best Pop Solo Performance and Best Music Video.

Composition

edit

Music journalists have called the song "an empowering, unabashed ode to womanhood and feminine diversity" which also "explores [the] thoughts, emotions and woes of being a woman".[2][3] A bright, high-energy Afrobeats song,[4][5][6][7] it has also been described as a fusion of pop, R&B, and reggae.[8] It was co-written by American rapper Jidenna who also provides background vocals to the track.[9][10] In the lyrics, Doja Cat also details how patriarchy often tries to create competition by putting women against each other, and thus makes a reference to Regina George from Mean Girls (2004).[5] Critics compared her vocal delivery on the track to that of Rihanna (whom she name-drops in the song),[11] and her rap delivery to that of Kendrick Lamar.[12]

Critical reception

edit

Rosemary Akpan of Exclaim! wrote that "in typical Doja fashion, she's still able to deliver her usual quick-witted bars, complemented by a catchy chorus."[13]

Music video

edit

The song's music video was released on December 3, 2021. It takes inspiration from Michael Jackson's video "Remember the Time."[14] It stars Teyana Taylor alongside actress and model Guetcha. The plot elements and setting of the video take inspiration from the film Dune. In collaboration with Girls Who Code, "Woman" became the first codable music video in which fans will be able to make their own edits in JavaScript, Python or CSS using DojaCode.[15][16]

The Music video received several nominations at awards shows including Best Music Video at the 65th Annual Grammy Awards, Video of the Year and Best Pop Video at the 2022 MTV Video Music Awards, and Best Video at the 2022 MTV Europe Music Awards. Additionally, it won Best Choreography at the 2022 MTV Video Music Awards.
