Rico Nasty on Embracing Vulnerability for Fierce New Record ‘Lethal’ and Why ‘If You Have Low Self-Esteem, You’re Going to Feel Triggered’


Rico Nasty discusses embracing vulnerability for her fierce new record "Lethal" and why people with low self-esteem shouldn't tune in.

As Rico Nasty logs onto Zoom to speak with Variety about her fierce yet emotional album, “ Lethal,” which dropped today, she’s in the middle of quite the busy week. “Lethal,” Rico’s first album under the label Fueled by Ramen, comes at a major transition period in her life as she moves away from her old creative team and finds a new sound. Below, Rico discusses opening up her rock and rap sounds to embrace more vulnerable beats, how she sees herself doing “everything” in life after scoring an acting role in “Margo’s Got Money Troubles,” and why she thinks only real fans need to listen to the back half of “Lethal.”
