Jaylah Ji'mya Hickmon (born August 14, 1998), known professionally as Doechii (/ˈdi/), is an American rapper and songwriter. She first gained attention on TikTok with the viral success of her 2020 song "Yucky Blucky Fruitcake". She later signed with Top Dawg Entertainment, in a joint venture with Capitol Records, and released the single "Persuasive", which was later remixed with SZA. Her 2023 single "What It Is (Block Boy)" (featuring Kodak Black) marked her first entry on the Billboard Hot 100 and was certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).

Doechii's third mixtape, Alligator Bites Never Heal (2024), was met with generally favorable reviews and won Best Rap Album at the 67th Annual Grammy Awards; this made her the third woman to win in the category.[1] The mixtape spawned the singles, "Denial Is a River" and "Nissan Altima".

Doechii has made guest appearances on the single "Anxiety" by Sleepy Hallow, as well as the track "Balloon" by Tyler, the Creator. Her accolades include a Grammy Award (from three nominations) and the 2023 Rising Star Award from Billboard Women in Music. She has also received nominations for two MTV Video Music Awards, a BET Award, and two Soul Train Music Awards.
