Background

American rapper Doechii began her music career under the stage name Iamdoechii, uploading her first songs on SoundCloud in 2016 and releasing the EP Coven Music Session: Vol. 1 in 2019.^[1]^[2] Her next project, Oh the Places You'll Go, spawned her breakout track, "Yucky Blucky Fruitcake".^[3] The song went viral on the video-sharing application TikTok,^[4] and Doechii's newfound success landed her a 2021 collaboration with rapper Isaiah Rashad of the label Top Dawg Entertainment.^[1]

That same year, rumors began to spread about a recording contract with the label, to which Doechii said she could "neither confirm nor deny" them.^[5] She confirmed the speculation in March 2022, announcing she was officially signed to Top Dawg, as its first woman rapper, in a joint deal with Capitol Records.^[6]^[7] The announcement was accompanied by her major-label debut single, titled "Persuasive".^[8]

Music and lyrics

"Persuasive" was written by Doechii, Austin Daniel Brown, Kal Banx, Oh Gosh Leotus, Ivan Jackson, and Zach Witness. The song is an uptempo dance track blending both house and hip hop music.^[9]^[10] Doechii said that her main reason behind the song's creation was to "uplift people and bring communities together."^[11]

The lyrics speak to the persuasive nature of marijuana and the feeling of getting high.^[12] Mya Abraham of Vibe described the song as "an anthem about late nights and questionable decisions".^[13]

Music video

The music video for "Persuasive" was directed by Omar Jones and released on March 30, 2022.^[14]

Critical reception

"Persuasive" received mostly positive reviews from music critics. Billboard placed the song at number 88 on their Best Songs of 2022 list, calling it a "buttery" track and a "stellar kickback".^[15] Grace Medford of DIY called the track a "sultry purr of appreciation for spending the whole day faded".^[16] The Fader placed the song at number 17 of their 100 Best Songs of 2022.^[17] Gyasi Williams-Kirtley of The Fader gave props to the song for allowing Doechii to show a more "mellow persona" and calling it "flirtatious, sharp, and provocative".^[17]
