Sexyy Red, never one to shy from provocation, ignited a wave of speculation this week while promoting her new single “Hoochie Coochie.” The St. Louis-born rapper, 26, released the track just days ago, stirring her fanbase with a blend of bold lyrics and an even bolder rollout.
To build anticipation for the single, she shared a string of private messages she claimed came from well-known rappers. Some texts read like flirtation; others were explicit declarations of desire. Though she withheld the identities of her admirers, DJ Akademiks alleged that one of the senders was Chicago drill pioneer Chief Keef, a name previously linked to Red in rumors she publicly denied.
The messages varied in tone. One rapper praised her with, “You got the best,” followed by an unprintable word. Another, more explicit, wrote, “I wanna put this in your heart,” language both graphic and unmistakable in its intent. A third offered a softer approach: “Baby, I’m infatuated.” A fourth kept it simple: “I think about you all the time.”
By releasing these texts, Sexyy Red walked a fine line between exposing unnamed admirers and turning private attention into public intrigue. The stunt amplified interest in her music while reinforcing her image as a fearless voice in hip-hop, unbothered by industry expectations or tabloid whispers.
“Hoochie Coochie,” like much of her work, blends raunch with raw energy. Her lyrics channel unfiltered female desire with a Southern twang, balancing comedy and confidence. Red’s ability to shape narratives—whether through suggestive screenshots or unapologetic records—makes her a compelling figure in the current rap landscape.
Whether the text messages were part of a calculated promo campaign or a moment of messy spontaneity, they did what they were meant to do. The internet paid attention. And in Sexyy Red’s world, attention is currency.
