Scarlet is the fourth studio album by American rapper and singer Doja Cat, released on September 22, 2023, via Kemosabe and RCA Records. Disillusioned with pop music and dissatisfied with music critics questioning her status as a rapper, Doja felt inspired to create a "masculine" follow-up to her third studio album, Planet Her. Musically, the record marks a departure from the pop-driven sounds of its predecessor, being predominantly centered around the genres of hip hop and R&B.
Scarlet was preceded by the lead single and three promotional singles. "Paint the Town Red" was released in August and became a massive commercial success. It marked Doja Cat's first solo number-one on the US Billboard Hot 100, the UK Singles Chart, the Billboard Global 200, and several other national charts worldwide. The promos for the album include "Attention", "Demons" and "Balut". A second single, "Agora Hills" was released concurrent to the album. To support the album, Doja Cat will embark on The Scarlet Tour in October 2023, her first arena tour as a headliner.
"Scarlet" is the name to an alter ego adopted by Doja Cat which symbolizes rebirth, "the reimagination of the self", and "the birth of a new creative, or new thought, or new way of style that you're expressing".
