Asian Doll has been on a tear recently. Aged 26, the self-proclaimed "Queen of Drill" is coming off an eventful year in 2022. In July, she dropped her full-length album Let's Do a Drill. The album was loaded with exciting features and undeniable bangers. Verses from Tay Money, Bandmanrill, Dougie B and more all meshed well with Asian's ferocious sound. In less than a year, the project already has five songs that have eclipsed 100,000 streams on Spotify. In fact, her most popular track "No Exposing" is well on its way to 1 million plays with over 860,000.
However, with this success came a bit of turbulence. A few months later in November, Asian was arrested and denied bond. The reasons for her detainment have still not been disclosed. At the time, she was sentenced to 45 days in jail. But, she was released nearly a week later and got back to work. During that time, she put out her final solo single of the year titled "Come Outside." Needless to say, Asian had tons of momentum heading into the new year.
Asian Doll Spins The Block
In the first month of 2023, Asian Doll got right to it. On Jan. 25, the Dallas, TX native announced her upcoming album Let's Do a Drill 2. Dubbing it the "solo edition," Doll was set to turn her stellar 2022 LP into an album series. Without any features, Let's Do a Drill 2 came out on Feb. 24. The album contains 12 songs and spans only 30 minutes. Additionally, the LP includes its sole pre-released single "Come Outside."
A few months ago, producer Hitmaka voiced his qualms about "pussy rap" via Twitter. “P*ssy rap was cool when it had shock value & was rare. Now it’s like every girl taking it there," he said. Asian Doll did not take kindly to this, and responded with vigor. "I fell like why do n****s always worried bout what female rappers rap about?” she questioned. "N****s been rapping bout the same thing since rap was invented.. ladies rap for the ladies not for you n****s."
So, with this new album, it's clear who Asian's target audience is: the ladies. But, all fans of drill should surely expect great things from Asian. With confident flows and innovative songwriting, Let's Do a Drill 2 will surely impress just as much as the first rendition. Stream Asian Doll’s new album on Spotify or Apple Music below.
