Fresh off her Best Rap Album win at the GRAMMY Awards for Alligator Bites Never Heal, rap sensation Doechii is celebrating her journey by officially releasing a reworked version of her long-requested track, “Anxiety.” Originally recorded in her bedroom for her 2019 mixtape, Coven Music Sessions, the song has now been re-recorded with fresh vocals while maintaining its raw, emotional essence. The track is out today via Top Dawg Entertainment / Capitol Records and is now available for streaming.
A Viral Phenomenon
The anticipation for Anxiety has been sky-high. After Doechii teased the track last week, her post generated over 80,000 TikTok creates in just 24 hours and reached 2.7 million views in a matter of days, as thousands of fans resonated with its deeply personal themes.
Alongside Anxiety, Doechii has also released “Denial is a River,” a standout track from Alligator Bites Never Heal. The critically acclaimed album topped Rolling Stone’s list of The 20 Best Hip-Hop Albums of 2024 and landed in the top 10 of their overall “Best Albums of 2024” ranking. The project also received widespread praise from NPR, Paste, Consequence of Sound, Stereogum, and UPROXX.
A Historic Year for Doechii
Since the release of Alligator Bites Never Heal, Doechii has been on an unstoppable rise. Her sold-out world tour took her across the U.S., Europe, and the UK, further cementing her global impact.
In December, she delivered a series of unforgettable performances, including a Tiny Desk Concert for NPR Music, an appearance on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, and a special event at the GRAMMY Museum in Los Angeles, where hip-hop legend Killer Mike introduced her as “an artist who I feel is the present, the future – and who’s going to change music forever.”
With the release of “Anxiety”, the momentum of her Grammy win, and a string of critical and commercial successes, Doechii continues to redefine hip-hop on her own terms. Stream Anxiety and Denial is a River now and witness the evolution of a game-changing artist.
