Doechii Explains How SZA’s ‘Ctrl’ Pushed Her to Break Up With Her Ex-Boyfriend


Doechii explained how SZA's 'Ctrl' inspired her to break up with her former boyfriend in a new interview.

In a Cosmopolitan cover story published Monday (April 21), the Swamp Princess recalled how listening to Ctrl back when she was 18 enabled her to break things off with her then-boyfriend, who she says limited her creatively. “I’m speaking truthfully from a queer Black woman’s perspective, and being honest about my life through my lens is amazing,” the Florida native added. Doechii’s praise for SZA comes as the two women share slots high up on the Billboard Hot 100, with the former’s first-ever top 10 hit, “Anxiety,” sitting at No.
