A mutual respect expressed repeatedly and transformed into an artistic collaboration that promises energy and boldness. Lady Gaga and Doechii trademark, finally together. The trailer for “The Devil Wears Prada 2″ is out, and the soundtrack includes a spoiler of the new song “Runway.” This is the title of the new song released by the two artists. Which will be available on online music platforms on April 10, 2026. The film, a sequel to the first installment released in 2006, will be released in the cinema on April 29, 2026.

“Runway”: the meaning of the song

Little is known about the lyrics to Lady Gaga and Doechii’s new song, which will be released in full on April 10, 2026. But it’s from the two pop stars’ statements that we can gather that the song references the nuanced character traits of their two protagonists. On one hand, the determined and authoritarian personality of Miranda Priestly, played by Meryl Streep. On the other, the subtlety of Andy Sachs, played by Anne Hathaway, a journalist who dreamed of writing for Runway magazine, in the film Vogue’s alter ego, a bit absent-minded and dreamy who ends up working as the boss’s personal secretary.

The song’s meaning is the portrait of a bold woman who seeks happiness and finds it, who longs to feel free. A song that focuses on the importance of female identity in a world like journalism and fashion, where prejudice and stereotypes dominate reality.

The relationship between Lady Gaga and Doechii

As mentioned at the beginning, the foundation is a mutual respect that comes from afar. Doechii has repeatedly confided that she’s a “Little Monster,” as Lady Gaga’s fans call her “Mother Monster.” The Florida rapper moved Gaga with a moving tribute during the 2025 iHeartRadio Music Awards.

Before presenting her with the Innovator Award, Doechii said: “Gaga was a lifeline for me. Much more than a pop star. She taught us to love each other.”

As Jaylah Ji’mya Hickmon, Doechii’s full name, spoke from the stage, Lady Gaga was sitting in the audience. She was visibly moved, tears welling up in her eyes. Later in 2025, Mother Monster spoke about her young colleague. With the release of her album “Anxiety,” Doechii appeared on the cover of British Vogue. It’s been a magical year for singer from Tampa: headliner in Glastonbury, triumph at the Grammy Awards and the BET Award, a string of successes.

Doechii’s outburst also touched Gaga. The pop star had some very sweet words for her fellow hip-hop star: “It’s not often you see someone debut a pen that seems legendary. For me, that’s Doechi.”

This isn’t the first time Gaga has composed a high-quality soundtrack: she’s already done so with “Shallow” from “A Star is Born” and with the song “Hold My Hand” for another major film, “Top Gun: Maverick”. It’s not just music, but early rumors about the film have also suggested a role for Lady Gaga. A suggestive scene inside the Pinacoteca di Brera.
