Who said what about Doechii?! The Swamp Princess clearly has time today — and she’s done letting anyone else control her narrative.
In a bold, razor-sharp move, Doechii dropped a surprise single titled “girl, get up.” featuring her TDE sister SZA, produced by Jay Versace, and it’s aimed squarely at every critic, troll, think-piece philosopher, and “industry whisperer” questioning her rise. Posting a snippet on Instagram with the caption “life update,” Doechii made it clear this wasn’t just a song — it’s a public correction.
And she wasted zero breath getting to it. On the track, she spits:
“All that industry plant shit wack / I see it on the blogs, I see you in the chats
‘You suck every rap na d from the back’ / But what’s the agenda when the It girl Black?”
She follows that flame with another lyrical swing:
“Y’all can’t fathom that I work this hard / And y’all can’t fathom that I earned this chart
Y’all can’t stand my vibe ‘cause I’m anointed / All y’all evil-ass hoes just annoying.”

Translation:
Doechii is done explaining herself. Done with coded criticism. Done with disrespect. And absolutely done apologizing for success.
Powered by a gritty drum sample pulled from the Neptunes’ iconic production on Birdman and Clipse’s “What Happened to That Boy?” the track leans into a smoky, late-night feel — the kind of beat meant for statements, not whispers. Doechii’s delivery is sharp, focused, and fearless, while SZA glides in with a sultry hook that balances bite with celebration.
Because you can clap back and still sound beautiful doing it.
To seal the moment, Doechii also dropped a sleek visual pairing cinematic rooftop shots, yacht luxury, and minimal, intentional choreography — not overdone, not performative, just controlled confidence. It’s a flex, but a quiet one. The kind that says: I’m already where you’re trying to pull me down from.
The release also comes with a signal: this marks the final track in her Swamp Sessions series, opening the door to her next era — one many critics clearly underestimated, and one fans are now watching even closer.
Whether people label the record as defiant, therapeutic, confrontational, or necessary, one thing is undeniable: Doechii has made it crystal clear she won’t be defined by conspiracy theories, projections, or misogynistic narratives.
She’s working. She’s winning. She earned it.
And as of today, she’s officially done explaining that.
Haters included — because they’re tuned in too.
