Doechii addresses her battle with suicidal thoughts when she was younger in an interview with The Cut.

Full story below…

The GRAMMY award winning artist reflects on those thoughts about being bullied in the 6th grade, and how God saved her life after He told her to write down “I am Doechii.” She stated:

“I was getting bullied so bad that I was thinking about killing myself. I realized, Oh, f*ck, I’m gonna kill myself and then I’m gonna be the only one dead. The bullies aren’t gonna be with me, and everything they said is not coming with me either. I would just be gone. And then I was like, F*ck that! F*ck that sh*t! I’m not going for that! And this wash of peace came over me, and I received ‘I am Doechii.’ But it was more like this feeling of — I made a choice, a decision. I am the most important character in this movie. This is my motherf*cking movie.”

The ‘Nissan Altima’ rapper also addressed rumors about her being an industry plant after her success:

“When people aren’t familiar with the history of an artist these days, they get suspicious. I’m pretty detached emotionally from it because I understand where it’s coming from.”

Doechi’s words of perseverance come on the heels of her triumphing at the GRAMMY Awards, where she took home Best Rap Album for her mixtape ‘Alligator Bites Never Heal.’
