“I want to address what’s been happening on Twitter. I’ve used public chat rooms to socialize since I was a child. I shouldn’t have been on some of those chat room sites, but I personally have never been involved in any racist conversations. I’m sorry to everyone I offended,” she said. “I understand my influence and impact and I’m taking this all very seriously. I love you all and I’m sorry for upsetting or hurting any of you. That’s not my character, and I’m determined to show that to everyone moving forward.”
Doja also recently made a statement addressing the unfair treatment she feels female rappers face in the industry. She believes rappers like herself are often unfairly judged on their appearance and by what they wear.
“When you dress up like you are going on a night out in Miami and you have a little skirt on and a little bikini on, you show a lot of skin, you’re very sexy, you do this and you rap about f—ing people and you’re doing all this stuff. … People will put you in a category and for them to be comfortable, they’ll make it seem like you are not very smart, you are just a girl who is just a rapper.
“You don’t have a great sense of humor maybe, or you’re stuck up … like female rappers are vapid or less than smart, I feel that’s how they’re looked at,” she told Power 106
