This new breezy summer jam, released in partnership with Sprite Limelight, continues Doechii's killer 2024 run so far.

Doechii's relentless 2024 run continues, and her latest offering is a collaboration with Sprite Limelight for the new single and music video, "ROCKET." Moreover, it takes inspiration from African and Jamaican genres like Afrobeat and dancehall, but still contains some fiery sung verses and interesting vocal dynamics and treatments. It follows the TDE signee's last single "MPH" and her successful "Alter Ego" collab with JT and its resulting remixes.

Furthermore, "ROCKET" is much more of a light and casual single that brings home the summer vibes with catchy warbled bass, airy vocal harmonies, and a dance-ready rhythm. Like in the rest of Doechii's catalog, she comes through with some sharp lines on self-respect and consciousness, and is a very fun tune regardless of its style. In any case, seeing this success this year is always a treat, whether it's through the rise of solo cuts like "Persuasive" or mash-ups of that song with former label mate Kendrick Lamar's smash hit, "Not Like Us."

Meanwhile, with a heartening and supportive Pride Month behind her during which she showed love to the community, we can't wait to hear what Doechii does next. If you haven't heard "ROCKET" yet, find it on your preferred streaming service or check out the music video for the Sprite Limelight partnership below. Down there, you can also find some standout bars from the track and the comments section for you to drop your thoughts on this new record.

Quotable Lyrics
Boarders, you without borders,
That’s like the two faces on both sides of a quarter,
You need patience, you without patience,
That’s like the one movie with the boy inside of the mazes

Born and raised in San Juan, Puerto Rico, Gabriel treasures the crossover between his native reggaetón and hip-hop news coverage, such as his review for Bad Bunny’s hometown concert in 2024. But more specifically, he digs for the deeper side of hip-hop conversations, whether that’s the “death” of the genre in 2023, the lyrical and parasocial intricacies of the Kendrick Lamar and Drake battle, or the many moving parts of the Young Thug and YSL RICO case. Beyond engaging and breaking news coverage, Gabriel makes the most out of his concert obsessions, reviewing and recapping festivals like Rolling Loud Miami and Camp Flog Gnaw. He’s also developed a strong editorial voice through album reviews, think-pieces, and interviews with some of the genre’s brightest upstarts and most enduring obscured gems like Homeboy Sandman, Bktherula, Bas, and Devin Malik.
