Doechii’s SC₳M Grammys EXPOSED | Shaded Nicki Minaj | HO

Not Doechii winning a Grammy and coming for Nicki Minaj.

Chile, I think we all need to collectively apologize to Nicki y’all because she wasn’t wrong when she said these new rap girls get a lil recognition and start trying to compete with her because Doechii just added herself to the long list of people who have started some mess with Nicki and the worse part is, Nicki never even said anything about her.

Doechii used to be the biggest Nicki fan when she popped out and even claimed Nicki inspired her.

The rap industry is no stranger to feuds, but when Grammy wins and social media antics collide, things get even messier. This time, it’s Doechii who is at the center of controversy, with fans accusing her of shading Nicki Minaj after securing a historic Grammy win. But is there truth to these claims, or is the internet just doing what it does best—stirring the pot? Let’s break it all down.

DOECHII’S CONTROVERSIAL GRAMMY WINDoechii had a massive night at the 2024 Grammy Awards, winning the prestigious Best Rap Album award. This victory was particularly historic, as only three women before her had ever taken home this award: Lauryn Hill, Cardi B, and now, Doechii. While this was undeniably a huge milestone, the celebration quickly turned into speculation, with fans dissecting Doechii’s post-win behavior.

The drama kicked off when Doja Cat and Megan Thee Stallion fans started circulating a viral tweet. The tweet featured side-by-side photos of Megan and Doechii holding their Grammys, captioned with the cryptic phrase, “You know, not everyone has that.” Although the tweet didn’t explicitly mention Nicki Minaj, fans immediately recognized the not-so-subtle dig—a reference to the fact that despite her legendary career,

Nicki Minaj has never won a Grammy.

What really set fans off was Doechii allegedly liking the tweet before unliking it within seconds. Screenshots quickly spread, fueling accusations that Doechii was deliberately shading Nicki.

FROM FAN TO FOE?What makes this situation even more surprising is that Doechii used to be one of Nicki Minaj’s biggest fans. Early in her career, she credited Nicki as one of her biggest influences. Many fans even pointed out that Doechii’s animated rap style and alter-ego persona mirrored Nicki’s “Roman Zolanski” era.

But somewhere along the way, things shifted. Tensions started rising when Nicki Minaj and Megan Thee Stallion had a falling out last year.

Around the same time, Doechii seemed to distance herself from Nicki, raising eyebrows among fans.

And just when fans thought the situation couldn’t get any messier, Doechii dropped a new song immediately after her Grammy win—and it seemed to be a direct diss aimed at Nicki.

“NOSEBLEED”: A SHADY DISS TRACK?

Shortly after taking home her Grammy, Doechii released a song titled “Nosebleed”, and fans wasted no time dissecting the lyrics. In the track, she raps:

“Will she ever lose? Man, I guess we’ll never know.”

“Will she lose her cool? These Bs can’t be half of me.”

“Now I understand why they mad at me and hate on my anatomy.”

To many, these lines were a clear shot at Nicki Minaj, referencing her lack of a Grammy win and implying that Nicki and her fans were bitter about Doechii’s success.

Adding fuel to the fire, news outlets referred to the track as a “Nicki Minaj parody,” suggesting that Doechii was not only shading Nicki in the lyrics but also mocking her iconic rap style.

DID TDE BUY DOECHII’S GRAMMY?

While some were celebrating Doechii’s Grammy win, others started questioning how she managed to secure such a prestigious award. Rumors quickly spread that Doechii’s label, Top Dawg Entertainment (TDE), may have “bought” her Grammy.

For context, TDE is the powerhouse label behind artists like Kendrick Lamar and SZA, both of whom also won big at the Grammys. Kendrick Lamar swept all five categories he was nominated for, while SZA took home a Grammy as well. With multiple TDE artists dominating the night, skeptics started wondering if industry politics were at play.

What made people even more suspicious? Doechii had a song ready to celebrate her Grammy win, even before the results were announced. Fans questioned how she could have prepared a victory anthem if she wasn’t sure she was going to win.

PAST INSTANCES OF SHADE

This isn’t the first time Doechii has been accused of throwing shade at Nicki Minaj.

1. The Instagram UnfollowLast year, when Nicki and Megan Thee Stallion were beefing, fans noticed that Doechii unfollowed Nicki on Instagram. Given that Doechii had once idolized Nicki, this move sparked immediate speculation that she was taking Megan’s side.

2. The “Pink Friday 2” DramaShortly after Nicki released her album “Pink Friday 2”, Doechii suggested that one of the tracks contained a subliminal diss directed at her. She even went live on Instagram to share her thoughts:

“She got me on her album. When she said what she said, I felt it. I was like, ‘Oh my God, am I the chop? Am I the one she’s talking about?’”

Nicki never confirmed nor denied whether she was referencing Doechii, but Doechii’s reaction made it clear that she believed the diss was aimed at her.

FANS TAKE SIDES

As expected, fans quickly divided into two camps—those defending Doechii and those calling her out for being disloyal and opportunistic.

One Twitter user wrote:

“Doechii never liked Nicki. She dissed her in a freestyle, y’all hyped her up, and now look. Same tricks, new B.”

Another added:

“Doechii didn’t get a push until she unfollowed Nicki. Coincidence? I think not.”

WHAT’S NEXT? WILL NICKI RESPOND?

Now, the biggest question on everyone’s mind is: Will Nicki Minaj respond to Doechii’s alleged shade?

Nicki is known for addressing industry drama, whether through Twitter rants or diss tracks. Given the rising tension, many believe it’s only a matter of time before Nicki claps back—either through a direct response or through her music.

Meanwhile, Doechii has yet to fully address the controversy. Whether she owns up to the shade or continues playing coy remains to be seen.

FINAL THOUGHTS

The drama between Doechii and Nicki Minaj has hip-hop fans buzzing. From Grammy wins to diss tracks and shady social media moves, the tension is undeniable. Whether Doechii intended to shade Nicki or not, one thing is clear: she has officially entered the long list of female rappers who have found themselves at odds with the Queen of Rap.
