Doechii closed out 2025 with a bang by surprise-dropping a brand-new collaboration with SZA, “Girl, Get Up,” complete with an eye-catching music video that’s already igniting fan buzz online. The unexpected release dropped without warning on December 30th, catching listeners off guard and giving them a bold glimpse into what may be next for the rising star.
Produced by Jay Versace and built around a sample of Birdman and Clipse’s classic “What Happened to That Boy,” the track blends Doechii’s razor-sharp verses with SZA’s smooth, melodic hook. Doechii uses her lyrics to confront long-running industry plant rumors and negativity she’s faced, rapping with unapologetic clarity about earning her success through hard work and resilience — a theme that runs throughout the song and video.
The video, directed by James Mackel — who also helmed visuals for Doechii’s Grammy-nominated “Anxiety” — pairs striking imagery with the song’s message, encapsulating the energy of two forward-thinking artists closing out the year on a high note.
Fans have already taken to social media to react to the surprise drop, many sharing excitement about the collaboration and speculating that the track could tease more new music — possibly a full album — in 2026. Whether “Girl, Get Up” points to a larger project or simply serves as an empowering end-of-year statement, it highlights Doechii’s momentum as one of hip-hop’s most compelling voices and underscores why her rise is resonating across the culture.
