Doechii closes 2025 with a direct new single
Rising rapper Doechii ended 2025 with a surprise single and music video, “girl, get up,” featuring SZA on the chorus. The release, which dropped December 30, serves as part-flex, part-declaration — Doechii responds to skeptics while setting the stage for a bold year ahead.
Sound and collaborators
The track leans on a guitar-based beat built around a sample from Baby’s “What Happened to That Boy” (featuring Clipse), giving the song a smoky, intimate feel. SZA’s vocals sit behind the verses, delivering a soothing, motivational refrain that punctuates Doechii’s more confrontational lines.
Addressing critics and the industry
Across the verses Doechii tackles chatter about her rapid rise and public perception. She pushes back against claims that her success is manufactured, calling out blog speculation and doubters who question her work ethic and achievements. The lyrics treat those rumors as distractions she’s ready to move past.
She also nods to recent milestones — including attention around awards conversations — while making it clear she intends to keep growing on her own terms. Lines in the song suggest she’ll address some of the criticism more directly on a future album.
Video and visuals
The music video, released alongside the track, matches the song’s relaxed-yet-confident tone. Scenes alternate between casual, late-night conversation vibes and more stylized moments that underline Doechii’s bigger ambitions. The overall effect is intimate: like listening in during a smoke session where the artist is unfiltered and unrestrained.

What’s next
“girl, get up” reads like a clearing of the throat before a new chapter. Doechii drops hints at an album and promises broader ambitions — “I want the whole dinner,” she implies — positioning herself for a big 2026. With SZA’s contribution and a confident visual, the song cements Doechii’s momentum and makes clear she’s not slowing down.
Fans and critics will be watching early next year to see whether the single is a prelude to a full project or a final statement for 2025. Either way, Doechii’s message is simple: she’s ready to move forward, unbothered and unapologetic.
