Doechii Reaches A New Career Peak On The Most Important Billboard Chart

Doechii Reaches A New Career Peak On The Most Important Billboard Chart

Forbes18-05-2025

Doechii scores her highest-charting hit ever as 'Anxiety' climbs to No. 9 on the Hot 100, fueled by ... More strong radio airplay across a variety of formats.

Throughout her career, Doechii has only sent seven songs to the Hot 100. Nearly all of those have landed on the tally within the past year, and the last few months have been especially massive for the rapper on the busy Billboard tally.
Following her standout performance at the 2025 Grammy Awards — which is being hailed as one of the greatest of all time — and her emotional speech while accepting Best Rap Album, Doechii's star has not just risen, but skyrocketed. She's now performing better than ever on the weekly charts with both her debut full-length and the singles promoted from it, as well as older material that's recently gaining renewed attention.
One such cut, 'Anxiety,' climbs once again on the Hot 100 this frame, bringing the hip-hop artist to a new career peak.
'Anxiety' ascends one position on the Hot 100 this week, rising from No. 10 to No. 9. While moving up a single spot might not seem monumental, every forward climb counts for Doechii at this point in her career. No. 9 now marks her highest showing on the list yet. Thanks to a blend of sales, streaming numbers, and radio airplay, the composition has become her biggest hit to date — and it could climb even higher in the coming weeks.
'Anxiety' slips a few places on the Streaming Songs chart, where it now sits at No. 34, so it seems that streaming activity is not largely to thank for the track's success on the Hot 100. The tune does still stand strong on the Digital Song Sales chart, though, as it's living at No. 5.
It's on radio where the track is truly exploding. This frame, the tune surges on several airplay tallies, reaching new all-time peaks on both the Radio Songs and Mainstream R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay lists.
On the former, 'Anxiety' hits the runner-up spot, meaning it was the second-most-heard track across all genres in the U.S. via radio during the past tracking period. At the same time, it lands inside the top 10 on three different genre-specific airplay tallies, proving that DJs and programmers are enthusiastically embracing Doechii's music. That's especially surprising, considering the fact that 'Anxiety' originally dropped five years ago.

Order of play: Philippe-Chatrier

Catch up on the second day of action at Roland Garros, as the first round continued to play out in Paris Getty Images Let's take you through today's order of play, starting with the first-round matches on the high-profile show Court Philippe-Chatrier. Play is due to start in just over an hour… R. Šramková vs. I. Świątek (5) N. Osaka vs. P. Badosa (10) T. Atmane vs. R. Gasquet J. Sinner (1) vs. A. Rinderknech So that's three matches during the day with Jannik Sinner's first-round match coming in the evening session — meaning it will not start before 8:15 p.m. local time (2:15 p.m. ET). Getty Images Reigning women's singles champion Iga Świątek is in action today — as a four-time winner of the French Open she knows what it takes to be successful at Roland Garros. So how does she feel coming into the tournament and her first round game today? Well, she spoke earlier in the tournament when the draw was made about her hopes for this year: "Every year is different, so you need to look ahead and have your goals for the future," she said. "But I am proud of my achievements here. I have great memories from past years and every tournament was a totally different story so I learned a lot, and it's always a pleasure to come back here and to play on these courts again. These are the best courts to play in. "Everybody is here to win. I am working hard to be as ready as possible and to play good tennis. This season has had more ups and downs than the seasons before but I know my game is there. I just need to figure out how to use it at the best moments in matches. Tennis is sometimes a complicated sport but we should make it easy in our head so I'll start, step by step." Getty Images No player has made themselves feel at home like Rafael Nadal at Roland Garros. The Spaniard dominated the men's singles event for 20 years, picking up a record 14 titles along the way. It earned the now-retired Nadal his own statue outside the famous old venue, where he amassed a remarkable 112 wins and just three defeats in his career. And yesterday, we were treated to a tribute ceremony on Court Philippe-Chatrier to honour his career at this tournament. Here's a reminder of his French Open record: Record titles won: 14 Highest number of victories at a single major: 112 Longest winning streak in Roland Garros history: 39 matches (2010-2015) Seven finals won in straight sets Four titles won without dropping a set Getty Images They are the star of the show at the French Open: the dusty red courts that provide some of the most entertaining tennis on the calendar. For more than 50 years, the clay used at Roland Garros has come from a single factory in Oise, north of Paris and is made of bricks that are specifically used in France. Around 2,000 tonnes of bricks are needed each year to produce enough clay for tennis courts — 80 tonnes of clay is the usual order for courts at the French Open. The clay comes from new bricks with imperfections unsuitable for construction being crushed into a fine sand. Those particles of dust are less than one-tenth of a milimeter in size, creating the perfect surface for players to slide. Getty Images Roland Garros is famous for its red clay courts, which consist of crushed brick rolled over a limestone surface. Different clay courts around the world play differently and, as Venus Williams told the New York Times in 2010:''All clay courts are different. None play the same. This one (Roland Garros) plays the best.' Clay can be the most physically demanding surface for players, who can slide as they meet the ball, and is slower than hard courts or grass. That requires players to think multiple shots ahead and execute subtle moves by executing more spin. Countries where clay courts are common — France, Spain, Italy, the Mediterranean and Latin America — have produced players who have typically fared well at Roland Garros. Named after the French aviator, Roland Garros lies in Paris's 16th arrondissement and is the only major to be played on clay courts. The name of the stadium is used interchangeably with the tournament's official title of the French Open, with 20 courts making up the stadium complex. The biggest is Court Philippe-Chatrier, which has a 15,000 seat capacity. It was completed in 1928 as France prepared to defend its Davis Cup title at a peak period for tennis in the country dominated by the 'Four Musketeers' (Jean Borotra, Jacques Brugnon, Henri Cochet and René Lacoste). One stand is named after each of the tennis Musketeers at Court Philippe-Chatrier. Getty Images Every sporty kid dreams of the moment — lifting a trophy in front of adoring fans. Well, in the men's tournament at the French Open, that means lifting the Coupe des Mousquetaires. The silver bowl-shaped trophy is named after four of France's famous tennis players known as the Four Musketeers (Jean Borotra, Jacques Brugnon, Henri Cochet and Rene Lacoste). As for the women's singles champion, she collects the Coupe Suzanne Lenglen — named after the female French tennis player who was the inaugural world No. 1 from 1921 to 1926. That's some history behind both trophies. It's a pretty tidy sum for those lucky enough to be crowned champions. Both the men's and the women's singles champions will take home an equal prize pot of €2.55 million (£2.33 million / $3.09 million). That's an increase from the €2.4 million (£2.02 million / $2.72 million) won by Iga Świątek and Carlos Alcaraz last year. But the winners' trophy and a place in history is the real prize for most players. The story goes that Sabalenka started playing tennis by chance as a child — and it's a pretty good piece of fortune that she did. Three major titles, 20 WTA Tour titles and the current No. 1 WTA ranking later and it's safe to say her commitment to that moment of chance has paid off. Sabalenka's best French Open finish is in the semifinal in 2023, so she will be looking to go one further this year to put herself another step closer to a career Grand Slam. In a warm up for the competition at the Italian Open, she was knocked out in the quarterfinals by Zheng Qinwen in straight sets, but she advanced to the second round yesterday with a 6-1, 6-0 victory over Kamilla Rakhimova.

Not just Florian Wirtz - Liverpool have ANOTHER exciting German wonderkid

And there's another lesser known youngster at the club who is following in their footsteps at the moment and will hope to follow in their footsteps of Wirtz, too, having been likened to Jamal Musiala. His name is Vincent Joseph and he plays for Liverpool's U16 team and Germany's U15 national team. Advertisement Many in Germany have likened him to Musiala due to his playing style and the fact that he grew up in England and could play for the Three Lions as well but has opted to represent Germany at the moment. The 15-year-old has been catching the eye at academy level this season. An attacking midfielder, who can also play as a no.10 and out wide and even as a striker, Joseph has been at the club since U9 level, penning his first contract in the presence of Trent Alexander-Arnold almost seven years ago as per Liverpool's official website. He captained Liverpool at Bayern Munich's U15 Elite Cup last year and has been regularly playing for the club's U16 team this season. A goal-scorer, who can take players on one vs one and play comfortably with his back to goal, Joseph scored hat-tricks against the likes of Everton and Stockport already this season. Advertisement He's been catching the eye in youth tournaments across Europe, just take a look at this rabona assist he made in a tournament in Poland earlier this year in the video above. Joseph comes from a footballing family. His older brother, Valentin, plays for Blackburn Rovers' U18 team and is also an exciting prospect with 14 goal contributions in 19 matches - close to a goal or assist every 92 minutes in the U18 Premier League this season - including three goal contributions in two matches against Liverpool. He's an exciting prospect with a lot of potential. After so many years of not having exciting German players in the team, ironically while playing under the most successful German manager in recent history, Liverpool could now have two of Germany's brightest prospects.

Fashion's worst-kept secret is out: Dior announces its new creative director

It began with a cryptic post on Instagram. In December 2024, Jonathan Anderson shared a photo of his shadow reflected onto a sandy beach at dusk, with the caption 'sunset'. Was it an allusion to new beginnings, per the idiom 'riding off into the sunset,' many in the fashion world began to wonder? Or was it nothing more than an innocuous holiday snap? What's now clear is that it wasn't the latter. On June 2, Anderson has been named as the new creative director at Dior, overseeing womenswear, menswear and haute couture. In an emailed statement, Anderson described the appointment as 'a great honor.' He said: 'I have always been inspired by the rich history of this House, its depth, and empathy. I look forward to working alongside its legendary Ateliers to craft the next chapter of this incredible story.' The Northern Irish fashion designer, 40, had been tipped for the top job at the LVMH-owned Dior since announcing his departure in March 2025 from the group's smaller label Loewe (where he was creative director for over a decade). A month later, LVMH CEO Bernard Arnault revealed during a shareholder meeting that Anderson would be designing Dior's men's collection, to be shown in June. Today's news follows the departure of Maria Grazia Chiuri, who stepped down as Dior's womenswear artistic director in late May after nine years, and Kim Jones, who exited his role as artistic director of Dior Men in January, after seven years. (Anderson's appointment at Dior brings the two roles together under his purview. The world's biggest luxury group with a market value of about $270 billion, LVMH owns 75 brands ranging from hotel chains to makeup, but Louis Vuitton — whose sales surpassed €22.8 billion in 2023 — and Dior are among the two largest contributors to profits. Though LVMH doesn't typically break down sales and profit figures for each of its labels, analysts have warned of the challenges facing Dior — a 'problem child' is how investment banking firm Morgan Stanley described it, noting that the business could benefit from more innovation — and the wider luxury sector, which is grappling with some of its slowest growth in years. Anderson's arrival at Dior could bring change. 'I have followed his career with great interest since he joined the LVMH group over ten years ago,' said Delphine Arnault, chairman and CEO of Christian Dior Couture, in a statement. 'I am convinced that he will bring a creative and modern vision to our House, inspired by the fabulous story of Monsieur Dior and the codes he created. He will be supported by our teams and our incredible Ateliers who will bring his creativity to life.' 'Jonathan Anderson is one of the greatest creative talents of his generation. His incomparable artistic signature will be a crucial asset in writing the next chapter of the history of the House of Dior,' added LVMH chairman and CEO Bernard Arnault. Anderson is among a new generation of high-profile designers taking over some of the world's biggest luxury brands amid a sweeping industry overhaul. In May, French luxury group Kering named former Valentino designer Pierpaolo Piccioli as creative director at Balenciaga, succeeding Demna who is taking up the chief design job at the group's top label Gucci. Designer changes have also recently taken place at Chanel, Versace, Bottega Veneta and LVMH-owned Celine among others. Anderson is credited with boosting the profile of Loewe during his tenure at the Spanish label, where he won over celebrities and fashion insiders with his playful, quirky designs. Hits from Anderson include an over-the-shoulder Puzzle handbag (a small version sells for $3,850) and surreal styles like a clutch shaped as a pigeon or tomato, and shoes that substitute the heel with nail polish bottles, roses and cracked eggs. At Loewe, Anderson also built a cultural cache beyond fashion: He drew an eclectic mix of artists worldwide into the annual Loewe craft prize competition, and famously restyled James Bond actor Daniel Craig and the late British actress, Dame Maggie Smith in wholesome sweaters and luxurious coats, respectively, for a buzzy campaign. In 2024, the designer made further inroads into film, designing the costumes for Luca Guadagnino's films 'Queer' and 'Challengers.' On receiving an honorary Doctor of Arts from the University for the Creative Arts in the UK last July, Anderson offered some advice for the graduating class of 2024: 'Authenticity is invaluable; originality is non-existent. Steal, adapt, borrow. It doesn't matter where one takes things from. It's where one takes them to.' (Ironically, the speech paraphrased quotes by film directors Jim Jarmusch and Jean-Luc Godard once made, and was an adaptation of the famous Pablo Picasso quote 'good artists copy, great artists steal,' which was later lifted by Steve Jobs.) 'Discover old films, new films, history books, paintings, photographs, poems, dreams, whatever,' Anderson continued. 'Only steal from things that speak directly to you. If you do this, your work will be authentic.'
