3.5 great | ellagos | November 12th 19 | Falls right into that Nicki Minaj lane of raunchy sex-positive Hip-Hop but while Doja lacks Minaj's rap ability her versatility as a producer and performer makes this a fun listen from front to back.

4.0 excellent | chtrenne | December 5th 19 | Flashes of brilliance, but still feels half-baked. She's obviously super talented; I hope she finds the producer that can really bring that forward!

3.5 great | Bedex | September 19th 20 | On the one hand Amala is more erratic and typical of a pop album as far as construction goes, on
the other hand it feels like it has more memorable tracks and more value as its exploration are
often well executed. Hot Pink is more consistent with a more unified direction going mostly into
fully rapped songs, but because that direction isn't Doja's strongest it results in a mildly
disappointing album with only a couple tunes sprinkled in. The best tracks are in fact the ones
where she goes back to pop and RnB, only keeping rapping to limited sections to add nice variety,
rather than rapping the whole time. The jammy 5 and 8 instantly feel l so far above the rest. 6
does the same thing but rapping ends up overwhelming it especially with the feat, and the song is
quite meh anyway. 9 is also interesting, although it articulates very poorly with 8, feeling like
a dark but flavourful remix of some Erika tune. Nice. For the rest, the rapped songs work best
when it's sort of a bubblegum vibe like on 1 and 12, or 2 with its fun intro but poor unfolding
and 3 which is simpler but works better than 2. At worst, the songs are proper awful with really
poorly done autotune - 4 or 10 despite a cool intro. Beyond that, 7 is kinda like 6 but works
better with a couple nice ideas and doesnt have the feat to hinder it, while 11 is a nice track
that has fewer non rap elements than 5 and 6 but still works quite well with rap that flows
better into the track than elsewhere. I wish she'd aspire to be a rapping pop star Doja, not a
rap star. Maybe with different producers for LP3? 3.3

3.5 great | Doublez38 | November 16th 19 | Doja cat stands out not only for its appearance and character, but also because it delivers a R&B/Rap on sweet cloth, without ever falling into the aggressiveness that the vast majority of today's female rappers possess. Moreover, her voice is also her first weapon musically speaking, she has the gift to find and apply catchy formulas/melodies. I take this opportunity to describe it well for those who don't know it or don't know it well enough yet because I haven't reviewed Amala and also because overall there's nothing new on Hot Pink. Doja Cat had already said everything about the old album, and despite her talent, Hot Pink sounds like a suite without much extra interest if you're not a fan. Be careful, it's a good album but you understood the idea, it's too insufficient compared to his talent. Moreover, it is the kind of album that gives a lot on the first listening and that loses value as new listeners come along. Finally, I recommend the song Won't Bite.
