Doechii, who plays 1509 Live in Ybor City, Florida on June 12, 2024. After coming home to play two shows over the holidays, Tampa’s hip-hop swamp princess already has plans to circle back.
Doechii , an expat Bay area rapper now working on the west coast, just announced a Pride month Swamp Ball tour, with stops in seven major American cities including Tampa.
The 25-year-old’s been busy repping hard for the South ever since, racking up nominations galore at the MTV Video Music Awards, BET Awards, iHeartRadio Music Awards, MTV Europe Awards, and more. She’s even won the Rising Star Award at last year’s Billboard Women in Music awards, and a UK Music Video Award in 2022 (“Crazy,” Best Choreography in a Video).
A new video for her “Alter Ego,” a collaboration with JT was just named a must-see clip by Vibe , and a recent set at Hangout Festival jumped between rap, pop and even house music.
