The musician, whose birth name is Amala Ratna Zandile Dlamini, is known for her explicit lyrics and suggestive performances, with song themes including the act of sex being compared to using a firearm, for instance.

In a follow-up X post, Doja wrote: “I’m rapping about c*m why are you bringing your offspring to my show,” before later posting: “rappin about eatin d**k and p*ss*n on his v-cut, leave your mistake at home.”

A large amount of X users agreed with the rapper, as a person wrote: “She’s right. 

“It’s not celebrities’ job to monitor what your kids are consuming. That’s YOUR job as a parent.”

Another Doja fan commented: “I said it before and I’ll say it again! Do not take your child to concerts meant for adults.”

Someone else penned: “Parental advisory content sticker on your albums for a reason.”

Nevertheless, other commentators argued against Doja’s statements, as a person highlighted: “Most of the people that listen to ur music are children hunny you would be nothing w/o (without) them.”

An additional individual chimed in: “Music is a universal language that speaks to all ages. It’s important to create art that resonates with diverse audiences.”

This wasn’t the first instance where the Grammy award winner called out her fans and their children. 

In her song F**k the Girls (FTG) from her fourth studio album, Scarlet, she says: “Since when was y’all my b*st*rd children / Go ahead and raise y’all self / Come get ya badass kids, no need to mention.”

Cardi B made similar criticism against parents back in January 2021, when an X user attempted to shame the 31-year-old rapper for promoting racy language in her music.

“So ya daughter can’t listen to it but everybody else’s daughter can? @iamcardib AW OKAY! Exactly what I've been saying you have an agenda to push with that trash-ass label you’re with. DISGUSTING,” the angered person wrote.

Nevertheless, Cardi was quick to dismiss the accusations, as she responded on X:  “Ya needs to stop with this already! 

“I’m not Jojo Siwa! I don’t make music for kids I make music for adults.”

“Parents are responsible for what their children listen too or see.

“I’m a very sexual person but not around my child just like every other parent should be.”

Parents and children attending adult-only events or listening to graphic content have been an ongoing issue in recent years, as exemplified earlier this month when comedian Arj Barker called out a woman and her baby for being disruptive during one of his shows that was strictly for ages 15 plus.
