As our Hip-Hop diva cover girl, @dojacat, solidifies herself with the most #1 slots for any female at pop radio of this decade, we dipped back on respect-mag.com to her RESPECT. interview—released right at the time she dropped her sophomore album in November 2019, Hot Pink. The album was a platinum success with over 19.3 billion streams worldwide, which shot her to global fame. Taking chances RESPECT. crowned queen with the first ever RESPECT. cover featuring a female riding solo. “the thing is when you’re going into the music industry knowing who you are and what you want it’s better. It is really important because if you don’t know they will figure it out for you. They will take that freedom and creativity and they’ll maybe try to do their own twist. Sometimes that can fall flat because a label is a bank and sometimes, they don’t have creative ideas” – Doja Cat Words: @tracymitchellva Images: @coldasic3_ Feature Design: @jonxpowell #dojacat #respectmagazine CLICK LINK IN BIO

RESPECT. Tribute to 18th Anniversary of Murder Was The Case soundtrack release on October 14, 1992. Sharing with a later gem of @snoopdogg from photographer @thatssopiotr. Image shot in South Central Los Angeles Saturday, June 20, 1998 “We went out to L.A., to f**kin’ South Central. Literally, we put a white piece of paper in his backyard against the wall of his house. Outside of his house, in the backyard with the dogs barking, everybody drinking, smoking blunts and screaming at him, and we put the shit up—shot it day- light, no lights, no flash, no nothing—just bop, bop, bop, one, two, three, we’re done, we’re out of there.” – Piotr Sikora Photo copyright Piotr Sikora #murderwasthecase #snoopdogg #snoopdoggiedogg

Flash moment ... USHER. Captured by Kenneth Cappello. Philadelphia, Fall 2004. “The chicks like Usher, but you don’t see him flaunting chicks. I guess he was married for a long time. I just thought it would be cool to put him in this context that I’ve never seen him in: Women like this dude; let’s put him in between a girl’s legs. I don’t know if Jonnetta, his mom, would be happy, but it made sense to me. The girl was a random model who shot for editorial for GQ, but they never used that shot. I was looking at the print and I was like, ‘This looks like where Usher should be.’” - @kennethcappello as told to RESPECT. magazine #usher #hiphopphotography #photography #print CLICK LINK IN BIO
