Spotify has announced that Doechii is the top female rapper with the highest number of monthly listeners. The exact number stands at 56.9 million listeners every month. This boost in listeners may be attributed to her latest and third studio album, Alligator Bites Never Heal (2024). Not just that, the Anxiety singer has also been collaborating with popular artists lately, such as Jennie on ExtraL.

The music industry is one of the most competitive industries in the world. With millions of artists battling it out to become the best with the most number of listeners and followers. Doechii is a new player in the game and started her music career just three years ago in 2022 when she was signed by Capitol Records.

Her quick rise to fame has left fans both stunned and pleased. Chart data (@chartdata) has posted this news to their X account and one of the users responded by saying,

"The QUEEN OF RAP. Deserved!" - @BadRihmance commented.

How did fans react to Doechii becoming Spotify's most listened-to female rapper?

Some fans were skeptical about the numbers the Alter Ego singer has received, but the majority of fans congratulated her on this big achievement as Spotify's most listened female rapper.

Have a look at some of the mixed reactions in the comments below:

Users who did not believe that Doechii got the streams organically have commented,

"all bots lmao doing this and selling 11k first week makes no sense" - @Uzanethegoat commented.
"Biggest industry plant from the past years" - @LouisAcutino added.

Another user compared her to another artist who they thought was an "industry plant." The comment reads,

"The industry has never been this bold before. They at least attempted to make Cardi B's rise look organic. They're straight up pushing this woman to the top with zero fans." - @evildarkskinn elaborated.

While others stated that Doechii is more talented compared to Nicki Minaj. They wrote,

"Let’s be real. Nicki was kinda mid compared to the Grammy winner DoEchii." - @Que4TheCulture commented.

A Doechii fan defended her in the comments saying,

"On everyone soul this is 100% organic" - @ianplug stated.

Not everyone is a Doechii fan or has listened to her work. One of these netizens commented,

"I haven’t heard any of her songs 😂 " - @NDIDI_GRAM declared.

So far in 2025, Doechii has released two songs: one as a lead artist and another as a featured artist. These include Nosebleed, which is her latest single this year, and she also collaborated with Jennie from Blackpink on her song ExtraL.
