Kendrick Lamar, known for keeping a low profile online, made waves by breaking his Instagram silence to shine a spotlight on fellow artist Doechii.

Doechii, a standout on the TDE label, dropped her acclaimed album ‘Alligator Bites Never Heal’ this year, quickly becoming a hot topic in the music scene. Her work has captured the attention of many, but Kendrick Lamar’s endorsement stands out.

On October 17, Kendrick took to Instagram, posting a screenshot of Doechii’s album coupled with an alligator emoji. It was his caption, calling her “the hardest out,” that truly turned heads. Lamar’s approval is particularly significant because he’s one of the few artists consistently dominating the 2024 music scene, even after parting ways with TDE.

In a heartwarming exchange, Doechii responded to Kendrick’s praise on her Instagram. She reposted his comment and joyfully added, “Thank you Dot, you the greatest.” This may seem like a small gesture, but it’s huge considering Doechii’s past remarks about her admiration for Lamar.

Doechii previously mentioned on The Joe Budden Pod that Kendrick tops her dream collaborator list. While she doesn’t anticipate a guest verse from him yet, she is keen on refining her artistry to potentially collaborate with him in the future.


Lamar’s endorsement is a promising step towards a possible future collaboration. Fans are already buzzing with excitement over the prospect of hearing Doechii and Lamar together, hoping it doesn’t stay a dream for long.

Kendrick Lamar’s unexpected social media activity has amplified the buzz around Doechii, marking a potential milestone in her career. His praise not only highlights Doechii’s talent but also hints at exciting times ahead for both artists.
