Doechii

Her early projects—such as Coven Music Session, Vol. 1 (2019), and her debut EP Oh the Places You’ll Go (2020)—showcased a unique mix of pop, dance, and hip-hop. The single “Yucky Blucky Fruitcake” from the EP went viral on TikTok in 2021, drawing the attention of major record labels. That same year, she released Bra-Less, her second EP, performed with Isaiah Rashad at the 2021 BET Hip Hop Awards, and joined SZA as an opening act on tour.

In March 2022, Doechii signed with Top Dawg Entertainment—becoming the label’s first female rapper—and Capitol Records. She debuted with the single “Persuasive” and soon followed with “Crazy”. Her major label EP, She / Her / Black Bitch, dropped in August 2022, signaling a bold new era for her artistry. That year, she earned an MTV Video Music Award nomination for Push Performance of the Year.

Doechii’s mainstream breakthrough came in 2023 with the release of “What It Is (Block Boy)” featuring Kodak Black, which became her first entry on the Billboard Hot 100 and earned platinum certification by the RIAA. She also made her acting debut in the critically praised drama film Earth Mama and performed at Coachella and on Doja Cat’s The Scarlet Tour.

Her 2024 mixtape, Alligator Bites Never Heal, was a critical and commercial triumph, peaking in the Top 10 on the Billboard 200 and winning Best Rap Album at the 67th Annual Grammy Awards—making Doechii the third woman ever to win in the category. Singles from the project, such as “Nissan Altima”, “Denial Is a River”, and “Nosebleeds”, highlighted her vocal range, lyrical complexity, and genre fluidity. Publications like Pitchfork and Variety hailed her as a leading innovator in hip-hop.

In 2025, she scored her first Top 10 hit on the Billboard Hot 100 with “Anxiety”, a track that samples Gotye’s “Somebody That I Used to Know” and originally appeared in her 2019 mixtape. Her guest appearances on songs by artists like Tyler, the Creator, Katy Perry, Jennie, and Banks solidified her place among mainstream pop and hip-hop heavyweights.

Recognized for her fearless approach to music and culture, Doechii has been honored with numerous accolades, including a Grammy Award, MTV VMA nominations, NAACP Image Award nominations, and titles such as Billboard Women in Music’s 2023 Rising Star and 2025 Woman of the Year. In 2024, Variety named her the *Hitmakers Hip-Hop Disruptor of the Year.

From SoundCloud beginnings to Grammy-winning stardom, Doechii has established herself as one of the most original and disruptive voices of her generation, continuing to redefine what it means to be a woman in hip-hop today.
