你對 Doja Cat 的誤解全都在這裡
這位歌手、饒舌歌手兼煽動者將自己推向極致。在她的新專輯《Vie》中,這意味著她將回歸流行音樂的根源,並「做我所知道我該做的事情」。

Doja Cat 喜歡製造麻煩。
這種衝動,部分源於這樣一個事實:這位洛杉磯說唱歌手兼歌手在2020年代成為最具代表性的流行巨星之一時,似乎一切都來得輕而易舉:令人愉悅的電台熱門歌曲、門票售罄的巡演、19項格萊美提名,以及現代樂壇中最為注重細節、隨時準備戰鬥的粉絲群體——被稱為“小貓”。
為了對抗籠罩在她商業化音樂和事業上升期上的光鮮亮麗,Doja Cat 的行事風格是始終帶著尖銳和挑釁的口吻問「為什麼」。這類爆發,通常由藝術家本人挑起,往往會同時牽連到 Doja 和她的仰慕者,在討論中留下一個彈坑,她必須自己從中脫身;有些人可能會被拋在腦後,但這或許才是關鍵所在。
You’ve Got It All Wrong About Doja Cat
The singer, rapper and provocateur pushes herself to the max. On her new LP, “Vie,” that means leaning into her pop roots and “doing what I know I know how to do.”

Doja Cat likes to make things difficult.
That impulse is, in part, a reaction to the fact that so much has seemed to come pretty easily for the Los Angeles rapper and singer as she bloomed into one of the defining pop stars of the 2020s: crowd-pleasing radio smashes, sold-out tours, 19 Grammy nominations and one of the more detailed-obsessed, battle-ready fan bases — known as “kittenz” — in modern music.
To counter the gloss that has coated her commercial sound and career ascent, the Doja Cat way is to always be asking why, with bite and some belligerence. Such flare-ups, often ignited by the artist herself, tend to implicate both Doja and her admirers equally, leaving a crater in the conversation that she must then lift herself out of; some in the blast radius might get left behind, but that’s probably the point.
To push yourself to your maximum potential, set clear, specific goals, embrace challenges by moving outside your comfort zone, build discipline through consistent routines, and develop a positive mindset that focuses on growth rather than limitations. It's crucial to pair this with discipline and self-care, ensuring you get enough sleep and eat well to have the energy to meet your goals. Remember that growth occurs when you consistently expose yourself to new challenges that force adaptation. Cultivate the Right Mindset
Define your "why":
Understand the purpose behind your goals to fuel your motivation and give you a strong reason to keep pushing. Embrace challenges:
Deliberately step out of your comfort zone to discover your hidden capabilities and build courage. Practice self-compassion:
While pushing yourself, it's also important to acknowledge and move through difficult emotions rather than suppressing them.
Build a Strong Foundation
Set concrete goals:
Instead of a vague desire to "do better," set specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound (SMART) goals that you can track. Develop discipline:
Create consistent practices and schedules and stick to them, as this is a significant part of the work involved in reaching your potential. Prioritize self-care:
Ensure you get enough sleep, eat healthy meals, and engage in short bursts of high-intensity exercise to fuel both your physical and mental energy, Quora explains.
Start small:
Begin with small, consistent efforts that build momentum over time, rather than trying to make massive changes all at once. Seek a supportive community:
Surround yourself with people who add value to your journey and support your aspirations. Push hardest when it's difficult:
The most significant growth comes from pushing through when you feel like giving up.
Understand your limits:
Realize that overexertion can lead to burnout, decreased resilience, and negative health outcomes, ONVY reports. Incorporate recovery:
Just as much as the effort, recovery is essential for adaptation and progress.
