Doechii Thanks MF DOOM & Solange For Inspiring Her Stephen Colbert Performance

by

Doechii performed her two hit songs, “Boiled Peanuts” and “Denial is a River,” during an appearance on The Late Show With Stephen Colbert on Wednesday night. The tracks stem from her acclaimed 2024 mixtape, Alligator Bites Never Heal. Doechii discussed how she choreographed the performance in a post on X (formerly Twitter) afterward.

“I felt heavily inspired by the lineage of Hip Hop and how it contributes to who I am today,” she wrote. “This is my first self choreographed performance and one of the most important things I wanted to highlight was my connection to black women through Hip Hop. With the help of hair artist Malcom Marquez, we were able to make this symbolic art performance come to life in just a short week.”

Fans have been showing plenty of love for the performance in her replies on social media.
