Doechii On Her 2025 Grammy Win, Performance

Doechii On Her 2025 Grammy Win, Performance

At the podium Doechii—only the second woman to win a best rap album Grammy—took a moment to inspire.

“I know there is some Black girl out there [watching]

and I want to tell you that you can do it. Anything is possible. Don’t allow anybody to project any stereotypes onto you. You are exactly who you need to be to where you are, and I am a testimony” to that, she said.

The profoundly powerful, charismatic artist’s breakthrough album Alligator Bites Never Heal bested projects from a handful of veteran rap hitmakers including Common & Pete Rock, Eminem, Future & Metro Boomin, and J. Cole in the best rap album category.

In 2019, Cardi B became the first woman to win in the category, in 2019 for her album Invasion of Privacy.

Doechii was also nominated for best new artist along with Benson Boone, Sabrina Carpenter, Khruangbin, Raye, Chappell Roan, Shaboozey and Teddy Swims; and for best rap performance for her song “Nissan Altima.”

Of her performance during the show, including her hit “Denial Is a River,” she said, “It was one of the most difficult performances I’ve done and I really felt the need to push myself harder than I ever have before. It really meant everything to me to prove myself tonight. To me. And so it was about Broadway and theater and art and I think I brought that to the stage.”
