Doja Cat - "Say So"

[𝓲𝓽'𝓼.𝓰𝓿]

Released as a single on this day 2 years ago (January 17, 2020) as the fifth single off her second studio album "Hot Pink" in 2019. A major Top 5 hit in the world, notably peaking at #1 at the US Billboard Hot 100 (thanks to the Nicki Minaj remix), #3 in Canada, #2 in UK, and #3 in Australia. It's rise to popularity is driven mostly by being a trend song at the social media application TikTok.

In a year where the world went down bad because of the pandemic, this is a bright highlight. One of my favourite singles to come out from the year 2020. It is so addictive, easy to get into, my favorite Doja Cat song, and a legitimate bop! While I consider this a great song, the intro of the song is a listening pleasure every time!

I've loved this from the first listen.

My favorite Doja Cat song and the song that got me paying attention to her. This is one of those songs that I will always associate with the first COVID shutdowns. Say So, Don’t Start Now, Blinding Lights, and Adore You are the songs that got me through those first few months of the pandemic.

A moment in pop culture. What a great pop song.

[SabrinaFan]

Such a bop. I remember being super impressed by this when I first heard it.

[NARCISSIST ELOQUENT QUEEN™]

This was a cute one.

I prefer the DJs From Mars mashup version which uses Riton's "Turn Me On" as the basis for the instrumental.

[M5AGTS]

#173 on Billboard's 500 Greatest Pop Songs

You Know What It Is: The beyond-irresistible disco throwback that helped make Doja Cat a household name in pop — and thanks to a boost from its Nicki Minaj-featuring remix, became her first Hot 100 No. 1.

Who Put the Bomp: The song was produced and co-written by one “Tyson Trax” — a new pen name for Lukasz Gottwald, who as “Dr. Luke” had worked on many of the early 21st century’s most-beloved pop songs, but had also been accused of sexual assault by collaborator Kesha. (Her lawsuit to be freed from contract with his Kemosabe Records was dismissed in 2016; Gottwald later countersued for defamation, with the case settled in 2023.)

These Words: Doja took “Say So” beyond Studio 54 cosplay with the song’s rap verse, proving herself worthy of her remix guest’s genre-crossing legacy with lyrics like “Let me check my chest, my breath right quick/ He ain’t never seen it in a dress like this…”
