Doechii has responded to criticisms regarding her behavior towards assistants at the Met Gala. The TDE rapper was seen exiting The Mark Hotel, shielded by a portable screen and umbrellas to conceal her outfit before the red carpet appearance. A video captured her demanding more umbrellas, which led to backlash on social media.
In a TikTok response, Doechii acknowledged the intense nature of the evening but expressed her pride in her team’s efforts, dismissing the criticism with a lighthearted remark about needing more umbrellas.
Recently, Doechii has also been addressing allegations of being an industry plant. During her Billboard Women in Music speech, she reflected on her journey and emphasized the importance of creativity, leadership, and vulnerability in the industry, challenging the notion of external control over her success.
Doechii continues to make waves in the music scene, collaborating with artists like Westside Gunn, whom she admires. The rapper’s growing influence is also evident in her Spotify listener numbers, surpassing those of other female rappers.
