Indio, California – Doja Cat wowed the crowd at Coachella 2024’s closing night with a rap-heavy performance that veered away from her usual pop hits like “Say So” and “Kiss Me More.” The Los Angeles native surprised fans by bringing out special guests such as ASAP Rocky and 21 Savage to join her on stage for memorable performances of “URRRGE!!!!!!!!!!” and “n.h.i.e,” respectively.
Her setlist included a mix of well-known tracks like “ACKNOWLEDGE ME” and “Agora Hills,” along with lesser-known songs like “Demons” and “WYM Freestyle.” Additionally, she treated the audience to live renditions of “MASC” with Teezo Touchdown and “OKLOSER” for the first time. The show also featured a dinosaur skeleton manipulated by puppeteers and backup dancers in Yeti costumes throughout the performance.
To conclude the night, Doja Cat delivered an unforgettable performance of “Wet Vagina,” immersing herself knee-deep in mud before bidding farewell to the ecstatic crowd. Fans took to social media to express their admiration for her stage presence and showmanship, highlighting her unparalleled talent and ability to captivate audiences.
In a post-performance interview with Vogue, Doja Cat reflected on the significance of the show, describing it as a representation of her personal growth and self-acceptance over the past two years. The singer shared her creative process and the deeper meaning behind the visual elements of her performance, signaling a profound exploration of self-awareness and identity.
Looking ahead, Doja Cat is gearing up to bring her “The Scarlet Tour” to the U.K. and Europe in June, following the completion of the American leg that included supporting acts Ice Spice and Doechii. The tour promises to continue showcasing Doja Cat’s dynamic artistry and innovative approach to live performances, solidifying her status as a groundbreaking force in the music industry.
