Nas has insisted that he has no beef with Doja Cat following the release of his recent single “Ultra Black.”

On the song, which is a collaboration with producer Hit-Boy, the Queensbridge rapper appeared to diss Doja Cat with the lyric:

Sometimes I’m over-black, even my clothes are black/ Cash Money with the white tee and the soldier rag / We goin’ ultra black, unapologetically black / The opposite of Doja Cat, Michael Blackson black.

Now, Nas has insisted his diss was just a play on words.

I just was really saying a rhyme that rhymed with ‘Ultra Black’. I rhymed that word with ‘ultra black,’ I didn’t even think of it. It’s all love, it’s all love, you know what I’m sayin’? It was like ‘Michael Blackson black.’

Hit-Boy added,

It literally is, Doja Cat’s the opposite of Michael Blackson. That’s how I looked at it.

Last week, Doja Cat revealed that she is planning to drop a track, with the acronym N.A.S. Fans speculated that there could be a few choice words in it for the New York rapper.
