Rising hip-hop sensation Doechii clinched her first Grammy Award on Sunday night, securing the Best Rap Album title for 'Alligator Bites Never Heal'. Her emotional win marked a historic moment as she became only the third woman to achieve this feat, surpassing rap heavyweights such as J. Cole, Future, and Eminem.
In her tearful acceptance speech, Doechii emphasized the significance of her win in a category where only three women, including Lauryn Hill and Cardi B, have ever triumphed. She addressed young Black girls, urging them to shatter stereotypes and believe in their potential, drawing from her own journey as testament.
Despite losing the Best Rap Performance award to Kendrick Lamar, Doechii's triumph resonated alongside other historic moments, such as Sabrina Carpenter's first Grammy victory and Beyonce's groundbreaking win in the country music category. The 67th Annual Grammy Awards, hosted by Trevor Noah, streamed live globally from Los Angeles.
