Taking home the Best Music Video award for her hit ‘Anxiety’ at the Grammy Awards on Sunday (2.01,) Doechii addressed plans to drop her new album reflecting her “different headspace” as she prepares for new music.
When asked about her Roberto Cavalli gown on the red carpet, the 27-year-old said:
“I’m in a different headspace, I have a new album coming, and so I just want people to get a visual representation of how I’m feeling as a woman right now.” “I think that I just bought my first home, my priorities are kind of different now, I’m focused on home life, I’m focused on beauty, I’m focused on womanhood, and I just think these fabrics, the beads, natural hair, it’s just, it’s all coming back to me, and I love it.”
Reflecting on the unexpected global rise of her breakout track ‘Anxiety,’ the rapper (born Jaylah Ji’mya Hickmon) admitted that its impact took her completely by surprise, adding:
“I did not see Anxiety coming at all, even when people demanded that I drop it on TikTok, I did not see that coming, and especially it becoming worldwide.” “I mean, it’s completely changed my life, and it’s also inspired me that you know, all of the songs that I think are probably throwaways, could be sleeper hits, so drop the music…” “When it went viral, I mean, I was like, ‘why are you guys even interested in this song? What’s happening right now? This is so old’, so I think just the shock of that alone was just like crazy.”
Most recently, Doechii teamed up with SZA on the track ‘Girl, Get Up.’
