Doja Cat extended a special treat to fans ahead of her fifth album, Vie.

On Monday (May 5), the Grammy winner released "Crack," a song that Doja included in a 2022 Instagram Live stream. But fans of the rapper should rush to her website ASAP–the song is only available to download for 24 hours.

The song was initially supposed to make the cut of Doja's fourth album, Scarlet, but was left off the final tracklist. "Crack" also won't be on Vie.

On Friday (May 2), Doja revealed that "Crack" wouldn't be the lead single of her new album, but would be for fans who "asked for it."

Back in April, Doja held an Instagram Live preview of Vie, skimming through tracks of her album, including "Aint News," "Slow Burn" and "Jealous Type."

So far this year, Doja's been featured on songs with Jack Harlow ("Just Us"), Don Toliver ("Lose My Mind") and Lisa and RAYE ("Born Again.")

Along with news of "Crack", also on Monday, Doja starred in a new Marc Jacobs advertisement soundtracked by "Jealous Type."

"Being on vacation isn’t about where you go," Doja said in press materials. "It’s about how you show up—whether you’re just enjoying the city or soaking up the sun at the beach. This Marc Jacobs campaign is about living life and serving looks. It couldn’t be a more perfect stage to preview my new music, where retro glam meets a little soul."
