Revisiting Doechii's Alligator Bites Never Heal (with Lakin Imani Starling) (Patreon Preview)

In a preview of this week's Pop Pantheon: All Access episode, writer and producer Lakin Imani Starling joins Pop Pantheon ahead of the first anniversary of Doechii's mixtape Alligator Bites Never Heal to talk about how the project turned Doechii into a breakout star. Lakin and Russ dig into Doechii's origins in Florida, her early years as a rapper and musician and early hits like "Yucky Blucky Fruitcake" and "What It Is" that helped set the stage for her massive mainstream breakthrough. From there, they discuss how Doechii uses Alligator Bites to challenges notions of genre and, ultimately, to tell her own story.
