Doja Cat Announces Surprise “Scarlet 2 Claude” Deluxe Edition
Doja Cat surprised fans with the announcement of a deluxe edition for her recent album, Scarlet. Titled “Scarlet 2 Claude,” the new edition arrives this Friday, April 5th.
The news was revealed via Doja Cat’s social media channels on Tuesday (April 2nd). A short, atmospheric teaser video featuring the artist in silhouette soundtracked by a snippet of new music accompanied the announcement. Doja Cat previously teased the arrival of a new song titled “Masc” on Friday, potentially hinting at its inclusion on the deluxe edition.
Details regarding the “Scarlet 2 Claude” tracklist remain under wraps. The standard edition of Scarlet, released last September, received a mixed reception, described as “an overlong, slightly repetitive but ultimately compelling album of two halves.” Despite the mixed review, the album solidified Doja Cat’s position as a bold and unpredictable artist.
Meanwhile, Doja Cat embarks on her “Scarlet” world tour this summer, with a European leg including two shows at London’s O2 alongside stops in Glasgow, Birmingham, and Newcastle. She’s also slated to headline major festivals like Coachella, Parklife, and Wireless, with additional European festival appearances at Rock In Rio Lisboa, Roskilde, and Open’er.
In recent news, Doja Cat addressed online comments comparing her natural hair to “pubes” and “carpet,” calling them “wild” and inappropriate. This incident serves as a further reminder of the challenges faced by women in the public eye, and Doja Cat’s response highlights her characteristic confidence and willingness to challenge beauty standards.
