"Attention" is a song by American rapper and singer Doja Cat. Written alongside producers Rogét Chahayed and Y2K, it was released on June 16, 2023, through Kemosabe and RCA Records as the first promotional single[1] from her fourth studio album Scarlet, alongside a music video directed by Tanu Muino.[2]
Marking a departure from what she described as "cash-grabs" and "mediocre pop", "Attention" is a 1990s-inspired hip hop song with a trip hop beat in which Doja Cat addresses numerous criticisms and controversies surrounding her, including changes in her appearance, her social media presence, and comparisons to Nicki Minaj. It entered the top 40 of the charts in the United States, United Kingdom, Ireland, Australia and New Zealand.
"Attention" received two nominations at the 66th Annual Grammy Awards including Best Melodic Rap Performance and Best Rap Song.[3]
