Doechii teased a possible Swamp Sessions revival while celebrating her Grammy win for “Alligator Bites Never Heal.”
Doechii hinted at the return of her fan-favorite Swamp Sessions on Tuesday (June 11) while unboxing her Grammy for Best Rap Album, marking a full-circle moment for the Tampa-born rapper whose breakout mixtape Alligator Bites Never Heal earned her a place in Hip-Hop history.
“Alligator Bites Never Heal will be a year old in like 2 months yall… time really flew by,” she wrote on Instagram. “Who woulda thought the Swamp Sessions would’ve got me this far, maybe it’s time to bring em back idkkk.”
The post came with a video of her opening the Grammy she won earlier this year, becoming only the third woman to ever win Best Rap Album after Lauryn Hill and Cardi B.
“Wow, what an accomplishment,” she said in the clip. “I want to cry, but I’m not going to. This is amazing.”
Before the Grammy, before the Tiny Desk concert that lit up December 2024, and before the acclaim, there were the Swamp Sessions—a raw, self-imposed creative challenge where Doechii wrote and recorded a whole song in under an hour, then dropped it on YouTube.
Tracks like “BULLFROG,” “CATFISH,” “FLORIDA WATA,” “SUNDAY’S BEST” and “BOOM BAP” became weekly snapshots of her evolution.
The series helped shape her image as the “Swamp Princess,” blending classic Hip-Hop rhythms with experimental production and a deep connection to her Florida roots.
Critics praised the sessions for their stripped-down approach and fearless experimentation, helping solidify her as one of the genre’s most promising new voices.
With Alligator Bites Never Heal turning one in August, Doechii’s cryptic message has sparked speculation that a new wave of Swamp Sessions could be on the horizon.
