After five long years, Doechii has finally blessed us with ‘Anxiety,’ and the streets are eating it up.
This one’s been a long time coming, and if you’ve been rocking with her since the early days, you already know the backstory. Way back, Doechii put out a fire cover of Gotye & Kimbra’s classic hit ‘Somebody That I Used to Know’ on YouTube. She flipped it in her own way, lacing it with emotion and raw energy, and the internet went crazy. But despite the buzz, she never put it on streaming platforms—so unless you had that YouTube link saved, you were out of luck.
Then a few years later, Sleepy Hallow stumbled across her version, sampled it, and turned it into his own track, ‘Anxiety.’ That joint went up, and suddenly, everybody thought Doechii’s version was out there too. At this time, the OG song never officially dropped.
Now, five years later, the Swamp Princess finally came through. And let’s be real, she didn’t disappoint. ‘Anxiety’ still hits just as hard, with those haunting melodies and the signature Doechii vibe that makes her one of the most unique voices in the game. For the day-one fans, this release is everything we’ve been waiting for. And for the new ones? Welcome to the wave—Doechii season is in full effect.
