Asian Doll


Misharron Jermeisha Allen (born December 7, 1996), known professionally as Asian Doll (also known as Asian Da Brat, or simply Asian), is an American rapper. A Dallas native, she is the first female artist to be signed to Gucci Mane's 1017 Eskimo Records.

Early life

Allen was born on December 7, 1996, to LaKeithia Lewis and Michael Allen, and was the second daughter of four children. Raised in the south side of Dallas in an area known as Park Row, Allen's early life was dealt with instability; from poverty and her father being in and out of prison. Allen had her first run-in with the law when she was 12 years old. Allen attended Skyline High School and dropped out in the 12th grade.

Career

Career beginnings

Her music career began with the release of Da Rise of Barbie Doll Gang Empire on December 16, 2015 and the attention from black owned social media blogs (TheShaderoom/TheNeighborhoodtalk) purposely publishing any disagreements she had for her to get bullied and bodyshamed. Other projects include Drippin in Glo (2016), Project Princess Vol. 1 (2016), OuttaSpace (2017), Kill Bill, Vol. 1 (2017), and Doll SZN (2018).

On June 13, 2018, Allen became the first female artist signed to Gucci Mane's 1017 Eskimo Records. Her first project with 1017 was So Icy Princess (2018). In 2019, Allen went on to release her eighth and ninth mixtapes, UNFUCCWITABLE and Fight Night.

In January 2020, Allen left her contract with 1017. On April 8, 2020, Allen released Doll SZN Reloaded, her first independently released project since signing with 1017. Allen is a company owner.

2022–2023: Let's Do a Drill and Let's Do a Drill 2

On July 22, 2022, Asian Doll released her album Let's Do a Drill. The 20-track project brings in features from fellow drill rappers Bandmanrill, 2rare, Dsturdy, TaTa, Iffy Foreign, Big TG, YBC Frizzy, EBK Dada, Dougie B, Shani Boni, Mula Gzz, Ivorian Doll, Kyle Richh, Jenn Carter, Miah Kenzo, Sosa Geek, Velly Osama, and Bory3000. Asian Doll also collaborated with fellow Texas-born rapper Tay Money on Down South.

On November 7, 2022, Asian Doll released the single Come Outside prior to releasing her tenth mixtape. The mixtape, Let's Do a Drill 2 was released on February 24, 2023. Also known as, Let's Do a Drill 2: Solo Edition, the project contains features on only one of its 12 tracks.

Public image

In an attempt to distance herself from a group of female rappers using the stage name Doll, Allen changed her name to Asian Da Brat in 2019. The name Asian Da Brat was supposedly a reference to the veteran female rapper from Chicago, Da Brat, whose debut studio album Funkdafied was the first platinum-certified record by a female rapper. In an April 2019 interview on Hot97, Allen stated that Da Brat was a reference to the brand of girls' toys known as Bratz Dolls.

She supported Donald Trump in the 2020 presidential election.

Personal life

In January 2021, Allen opened up about suffering depression due to the death of King Von, with whom she was in an on-and-off relationship with before his passing. A few days later, she appeared on an episode of Taraji P. Henson's show Peace of Mind with Taraji to discuss his death. Allen has five tattoos dedicated to Von.

In June 2018, Allen was arrested in New York City after getting into a fight. She was released a few hours later.

On September 4, 2020, Allen was arrested in Georgia, U.S., on drug charges. She was released on bond four days later.

In October, 2022, Allen was once again arrested in Douglas County, Georgia, due to failing to appear for the charges stemming from her September 2020 arrest as well as driving 20 miles per hour over the posted speed limit and not having a valid Texas driver's license.
