Doechii Says Westside Gunn ‘Snapped’ When He Sampled Her on His Latest EP ‘Heels Have Eyes’
Doechii is singing Westside Gunn‘s praises after the Griselda rapper sampled her on his latest EP Heels Have Eyes.
On “Egypt,” the fifth and final track from the project he released on Friday, Gunn samples a snippet of Doechii’s Apple Music interview with Ebro Darden. “One-hundred percent/ You know, recently I’ve been into a lot of MF DOOM (OK)/ Rest in peace (Yup)/ I’ve been into a lot of MF DOOM, um/ Westside Gunn (Mhm), love him, he’s so talented (Super)/ So incredible,” she told Darden back in September, which starts off Gunn’s song. The “Denial Is a River” MC can also be heard on the outro of “Egypt” when she says, “I just feel like, I just feel like the underdog (Mmm)/ Feel like the underdog and I just feel like, ‘Stop playin’ with me.'”
“Westside Gunn just sampled me so pretty much kiss the blackest part of my a– and choke on a side ways d*ck! He snapped omg,” she wrote Monday (April 21) on X. The Swamp Princess also posted an Instagram Story of her listening to the sample on “Egypt” and hollering and vibing out to the track once the beat drops.
And Gunn didn’t stop showing Doechii love. “So much RESPECT & LOVE for BEST RAP Grammy winner the beautiful inside and out @officialdoechii for ALWAYS showing love …. btw This is what the game is missing… the showing of appreciation!!!!” he posted on X. “Everybody wanna be so tuff and not show NO LOVE anymore but guess what those are the ppl that’s gonna continue to be in LAST PLACE.”
Darden reshared the same clip from Doechii’s IG Story on his Instagram and wrote, “Yea @Doechii ….. @westsidegunn knows!!! New Fly God ‘Egypt’ out now!”
