Doja Cat first gained popularity with her viral YouTube videos. As with most successful YouTube stars, Doja worked her way into the mainstream. However, unlike most of them, she is still here. Three albums, several hit singles, and millions of views later, Doja Cat is one of the most successful artists in popular music today.

Doja Cat didn’t set out to make a “feminist anthem” with her song Woman as the rapper/singer, whose eal name Amala Dlamini, recorded the song for her third studio album Planet Her, with the track garnering three Grammy nominations, hadn’t planned to make a “great statement” with the release.

Her music videos always contain incredibly eye-popping and eye-catching visuals. She has also collaborated with many talented artists. Many of Doja’s videos have racked up millions of views since their release. But which one of them contains the most views?
