Doechii dropped the official video for her global hit single, “Anxiety,” it already amassed over 272 million combined global streams, including 85 million U.S. streams, and more than 23 billion views across her social media.
Directed by James Mackel, the official video follows Doechii as she makes her way through an elegant home with an attentive staff. Yet this luxe setting is fraught with disturbing situations, including a kitchen fire, a menacing Doberman Pinscher, a falling chandelier and a team of window-busting intruders. She escapes to the street for a moment of peace only to be joined by upwards of 100 dancers, who only amp up her anxiety.
The video also pays homage to some iconic movies like “The Shining,” “Scary Movie,” and music videos like Gotye and Kimbra‘s “Somebody That I Used To Know” the track Doechii sampled for “Anxiety” and the legend Michael Jackson‘s “Thriller.” Incase you were wondering, Doechii‘s real-life younger twin sisters portrayed the twins from “The Shining.”
