WHAT IT IS: 22-year-old, Tampa-bred Doechii, fka iamdoechii, has dominated the Internet since the release of her EPs, 2020’s Oh the Places You’ll Go and 2021’s BRA-LESS, as well as her single, “Yucky Blucky Fruitcake,” which has amassed 33m+ streams on Spotify alone. In addition to being featured on Isaiah Rashad’s “Wat U Sed,” the up-and-coming rapper/singer was recently named one of Spotify’s “Most Necessary Artists to Watch in 2022.” Her latest offering, “Crazy,” arrived with a visual challenging the stigmatized imagery of the female form. The confrontational trackstands in stark contrast to the previously released TDE/Capitol single “Persuasive,” a lighthearted ode to weed and late-night partying.
