This title entails more than just a ceremonial recognition, it also acknowledges the artist’s hard work, dedication, and influence in the music and fashion industry.

“Doechii is taking pop culture by storm, this year becoming the third woman in history to win a Grammy best rap album, and dazzling fans of every musical genre with her breathtaking performances, ultra-candid lyrics and utterly unique sound, style and spirit.

“We are thrilled to celebrate Doechii and cheer on her continued success,” says Hannah Karp, Editor-in-Chief of Billboard

Since the beginning of her career, she has consistently pushed boundaries and challenged industry norms, such as wearing visible face tape and refusing to conform to beauty standards.

Her music is a unique blend of styles and genres, which has resonated with audiences globally and earned her a Grammy Award for “Best Rap Album” in February for her acclaimed mixtape “Alligator Bites Never Heal”.

This Grammy win made her the second solo female rapper to win the award after Cardi B took the same award home back in 2019.

The rapper’s performance of “Denial Is a River” and “Catfish” on the Grammy stage was spectacular; she showcased her incredible talent and artistry. She killed her performance, leaving the audience and viewers at home in awe.
