Doechii
Doechii isn’t wasting any time celebrating her big night at the 67th Annual Grammy Awards.
Fresh off winning Best Rap Album for Alligator Bites Never Heal, the Tampa rapper surprised fans with a brand-new single, “Nosebleeds,” just hours after her emotional victory.
The track, released via Top Dawg Entertainment and Capitol Records, was written and recorded specifically for the occasion with producer Jonas Jeberg. Executive produced by Anthony “Top Dawg” Tiffith and Anthony “Moosa” Tiffith, “Nosebleeds” finds Doechii at her sharpest—balancing confidence, humor, and raw storytelling as she addresses her rise, her doubters, and the whirlwind of speculation surrounding her Grammy nominations.
Her Best Rap Album win made history, as Doechii became only the third female artist to take home the award since its introduction in 1989.
In her acceptance speech, she reflected on the significance of the moment. “This category was introduced in 1989, and two women have won,” she started, before correcting herself: “three women have won — Lauryn Hill, Cardi B and Doechii.”
She then took the opportunity to introduce herself to a wider audience and shine a light on her city’s talent. “There’s so many people out there who probably don’t know who I am. I call myself the Swamp Princess because I’m from Tampa, Florida. Tampa has so much talent… labels, go to Tampa.”
She ended her speech by shouting out the kids watching who might see themselves in her: “I know there is some Black girl out there [watching] and I want to tell you that you can do it. Anything is possible. Don’t allow anybody to project any stereotypes onto you… you are exactly who you need to be to where you are, and I am a testimony [to that].”
In addition to her Best Rap Album win, Doechii was nominated for Best New Artist and Best Rap Performance for “Nissan Altima.”
Her 2024 mixtape, Alligator Bites Never Heal, earned critical acclaim, and the project was supported by a sold-out tour across the U.S., Europe, and the U.K., along with high-profile performances on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert and NPR’s Tiny Desk Concert series.
