Doechii Wins Hip Hop Disruptor Award At Variety Hitmaker Awards
Congratulations are in order for TDE rising rap star Doechii as she was honored with the Hip Hop Disruptor Of the Year award at Variety’s Hitmaker Awards this weekend. This is the new raptress season, as her career has gained momentum. Last month, she received 3 Grammy nominations for Best New Artist, Best Rap Performance “Nissan Altima”, and Best Rap Album for her mixtape “Alligator Bites Never Heal.”
She graciously accepted the Hip Hop Disruptor Variety Award by giving the following speech.
“ Hip hop is the most powerful vessel for telling your story, especially the kinds of stories that might not get heard immediately or be understood immediately. And so I hope my music inspires other artists to speak their truths and to do it with strength but also with vulnerability. We are the future of this genre. And when we’re fearless about showing ourselves to others, it keeps the heart of hip hop alive and it pushes it to the next level.
She wraps up her speech, saying, “Finally, I want to say something to all the kids and the future icons who are working so hard to put their art out into the world. A lot of the time being a disruptor means being misunderstood, but still having the audacity to create anyway. So I hope that by watching me live my dream, it gives you the audacity to be wildly magnificent. Thank you. Thank you. Whoa, whoa. Whoa, whoa.”
Doechii Has Mixtape Of The Year
Doechii released her mixtape “Alligator Bites Never Heal” in August 2024. She has since scored a hit record with her infectious track Nissan Altima, which, as of November 8th, 2024, sold over 100,000 units in the US. The emcee is finding her success as she continues her press tour, being interviewed at iHeart Radio’s The Breakfast Club this week. She has also been performing on TV and the web, including The Late Show with Stephen Colbert and NPR Tiny Desk this month. Her Tiny Desk performance was spectacular and energetic, displaying her raw talents as a lyricist and entertainer. Viewers were so in awe of her presentation that they began heavily streaming her music. Chart data reports that Doechii’s mixtape has re-entered the top 10 on US iTunes this week.
