The West Coast rapper might have come through with the most memorable verse on singer Ariana Grande and rap star Megan Thee Stallion‘s recently released “34+35” remix with a nod to hip-hop troll Tekashi 6ix9ine. On the must-hear record, Cat playfully gets at 6ix9ine. Doja gets freaky with her lyrics and admits she’s all for the bedroom activities – minus Tekashi.
“I want that six nine, without Tekashi,” Doja raps. “And I want your body, and I’ll make it obvious/Wake up the neighbors, we got an audience/They hear the clapping, but we not applauding ’em/six o’clock and I’m crushing/Then it get to seven o’clock now he want it/When it hit eight o’clock we said f*ck it/Forget your girl, pretend that I’m her/Come make the cat purr/come make my back hurt aye/Making that squirt and rain and shower and spray/Now that’s perfect baby/We don’t sleep enough but I’mma keep you up/If you could keep it up”
Hours prior, Ariana went online to get fans hyped about her “34 + 35” remix.
Fans woke up to the best news with the announcement of hitmakers Doja Cat, Megan Thee Stallion, and Ariana Grande collaborating. The female artists are set to release a remix version of Grande’s “34+35” track tonight, according to Ariana’s Instagram. The collab was teased earlier this week when Grande posted a promotion graphic for the single with two people standing beside her but hidden.
