Doechii Previews New Track ‘I Told Em’ In Trailer For ‘Wendell & Wild’

October 11, 2022

Doechii has lent an unreleased song to the soundtrack used in Netflix’s new Wendell & Wild trailer — watch it below.

The hell-raising clip arrived on Monday (October 10) with the stop-motion animated film set to be released on the streaming giant just shy of Halloween on October 28.

“I’ve been a big fan of Jordan Peele and Henry Selick for a long time so being able to help provide music to this trailer was awesome,” Doechii said in a statement. “I love anything that shows alternative representation of people like me in weird, quirky ways. Happy Halloween!”

“I Told Em” didn’t make the cut for the TDE artist’s She / Her / Black Bitch EP, but the haunting track still found a home inside the spooky trailer of the Henry Selick-directed movie. She took to Instagram to reveal that the record is produced by Rahki.

“Get ready for Spooky Season, with Henry Selick and Jordan Peele’s new stop-motion animation film, Wendell & Wild. Arriving October 28, only on @netflix And that  Yeah, that’s ‘I Told Em,’ by Doechii and Rahki,” Doechii wrote.

Wendell & Wild reunites the acclaimed Key & Peele comedy sketch duo of Keegan-Michael Key and Jordan Peele while the rest of the cast includes Angela Bassett, Tamara Smart, Lyric Ross, James Hong and more.

Music plays a major role in the flick as Lyric Ross’ character named Kat has its very own cyclops boombox playlist featuring various Afro-punk track.

The 2022 HipHopDX Rising Star has been keeping busy this year as she recently stopped by the COLORS studio for a vibrant performance of her new “Stressed” single, which earned an impressive stamp of approval from Doja Cat. 

“God was present,” the Grammy-winning artist said of Doechii’s performance on Instagram earlier this week.

The Florida-born artist’s She / Her / Black Bitch hit streaming services in August with features from Rico Nasty and fellow TDE singer SZA. Doechii has garnered significant momentum heading into her debut album after already making an appearance on former president Barack Obama’s summer playlist.
