Doja Cat’s “Paint the Town Red” Set to Become First Rap Single to Hit No. 1 in 2023

Doja Cat’s “Paint The Town Red” is primed to be the No. 1 song in the country. According to Chart Data, the single will take the No. 1 spot and will be the first rap song to do so since Nicki Minaj dropped “Super Freaky Girl.”

Just last week, “Paint The Town Red” had its biggest streaming day, with over 6.3 million plays on Spotify in one day span.

Doja Cat delighted her fans by releasing her new single and music video, “Paint The Town Red,” under Kemosabe Records / RCA Records. The visually stunning music video, directed by Nina McNeely in collaboration with Doja Cat, was shot in vibrant Los Angeles, CA. The video revolves around three captivating paintings designed by Doja Cat, with each scene beautifully reimagining the artwork.

Last month, Doja Cat showcased her artistic talents as she painted the single’s artwork during an interactive Instagram Live session, engaging with her fans while giving them a sneak peek of the upcoming song.

“Paint The Town Red” marks Doja Cat’s first official single since announcing her highly anticipated North American headline tour, The Scarlet Tour, set to kick off this fall. The tour promises to be exciting, with special guests Ice Spice and Doechii joining her on stage.
