Singer Doja Cat’s dad calls out her mom for ‘brainwashing’ her

Singer Doja Cat has found herself at the centre of a renewed family dispute after her father, Dumisani Dlamini, publicly pushed back against claims that he abandoned her.

In a series of videos, Dlamini denied being a “deadbeat” parent, insisting he was present during her early years and contributed to providing for the family. He claimed that his relationship with his daughter deteriorated after her rise to fame, alleging that her mother influenced her perception of him.

Despite previously acknowledging her father’s artistic background, Doja Cat has consistently maintained that she did not grow up with him and that they do not have a close relationship.
