Doja Cat says she's quitting music after arguing with fans on Twitter: 'I don't need you to believe in me anymore'

  • Doja Cat tweeted that "music is dead" to her after receiving criticism for apparently not greeting fans.
  • The rapper's concert on Tuesday in Paraguay was canceled due to an unexpected storm.

Doja Cat tweeted that she's quitting music and wants to "fucking disappear" after receiving backlash from fans in Paraguay who said they felt ignored by the rapper.

Doja Cat, whose real name is Amala Ratna Zandile Dlamini, is currently touring in South America after the release of her "Planet Her" album last June. She was meant to appear at the Asunciónico music festival in Asunción, Paraguay on Tuesday but an unexpected storm caused the concert to be canceled.

Despite the storm, Paraguayan fans apparently still tried to see the rapper by going to the hotel they believed she was staying at, later claiming on Twitter that she never came outside.

However, Doja Cat liked screenshots of what appeared to be her deleted tweets on the situation. In one of the screenshotted tweets, she said there "wasn't one person outside the hotel waiting for me" when she left the next day.

A few days later, the "Kiss Me More" artist tweeted about her concert in Brazil. In response, the fans in Paraguay proceeded to accuse Doja Cat of completely ignoring them when she was in their country.

One fan tweeted: "Not a single photo being in Paraguay, not a single tweet, not a single Instagram story!!!! You made us empty!!"

After responding to some of the criticism in now-deleted tweets, Doja Cat eventually changed her profile name to "I quit."

"it's gone and i don't give a fuck anymore i fuckin quit i can't wait to fucking disappear and i don't need you to believe in me anymore," the 26-year-old singer tweeted. "Everything is dead to me, music is dead, and i'm a fucking fool for ever thinking I was made for this this is a fucking nightmare unfollow me."

Doja Cat also said in a later tweet that she was still "not sorry." In response, Robert Rojas, a Paraguayan-American reporter, tweeted that the singer wasn't "going to win this fight against the Paraguayans."

"i moved on i'm just gonna let everybody be mad," Doja Cat replied to Rojas.

She concluded her tweets by saying: "This shit ain't for me so I'm out. Y'all take care."

A representative for Doja Cat didn't immediately respond to Insider's request for comment.

Paraguay's capital city, Asunción, was hit with major rainfall and flooding on Tuesday, forcing the music festival's opening day to be called off. Another featured artist, Miley Cyrus, revealed early Wednesday morning that she was unable to fly into the country due to the extreme weather conditions.

"To my fans and everyone worried after hearing about my flight to Asunción. Our plane was caught in a major unexpected storm and struck by lighting. My crew, band, friends, and family who were all traveling with me are safe after an emergency landing," Cyrus wrote on Instagram.

Machine Gun Kelly, whose set was also canceled, hosted an impromptu performance in a parking lot outside his hotel on Tuesday night.
