Doechii has brought her first Top 10 hit, “Anxiety,” to life with a new music video, depicting the rising star’s desperate search for peace. Watch it below.
Directed by frequent collaborator James Mackel, the visual is filled with anxiety-inducing situations from the start, including home invaders busting through Doechii’s windows, a kitchen fire she has to put out herself, and a yapping Doberman Pinscher.
While escaping the house, the rapper-singer narrowly avoids being crushed by a falling chandelier — only to encounter an elephant roaming the street and a crowd of nearly 100 dancers invading her personal space.

“Anxiety” prominently samples Gotye’s “Somebody That I Used to Know,” which itself borrows from Luiz Bonfá’s “Seville.” After an earlier version went viral, the track was re-recorded and received an official release last month. It currently sits at No. 14 on the Hot 100 after peaking at No. 10.
It’s been a whirlwind for Doechii since winning Best Rap Album at the 2025 Grammys for Alligator Bites Never Heal (one of the 50 best albums of 2024). That same night, she dropped a single titled “Nosebleeds,” and she’s since collaborated with BLACKPINK star JENNIE on “ExtraL.”
This summer, Doechii is set for appearances at festivals including Lollapalooza, Outside Lands, and All Things Go. Get tickets here.
