Rico Nasty: Tiny Desk (Home) Concert
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 3 авг 2024
- The Tiny Desk is working from home for the foreseeable future. Introducing NPR Music's Tiny Desk (home) concerts, bringing you performances from across the country and the world. It's the same spirit - stripped-down sets, an intimate setting - just a different space.
Sidney Madden | September 3, 2021
"I like having a band," Rico Nasty says with a giggle midway through her Tiny Desk (home) concert. "Especially when it's all girls."
As an artist known to mash up the genres of rap, rock and pop - and create a safe space for women to do the same - Rico has rarely gotten the chance to put this full artistic collision on display. For her Tiny Desk debut, Rico takes every opportunity to flex her rage and range.
Dressed as if she's the main character out of a Tim Burton adaptation of Candyland, Rico bounces around her varied discography, never letting the audience get too comfortable with one sound. Starting off with one of her most recent cuts, the soft, surf rock-inspired "Magic," the magnetic performer pulls a switch-up on viewers by jumping into some of her more raucous bangers, the type that would normally incite a sweaty mosh pit at her concerts. Of course, she closes the set with a shredding version of her breakout single, the primal scream mantra of "Smack A Bitch." The high-energy display evokes childlike joy and confection just as much as it does unapologetic savagery. "I don't know where you at, where you watching this," Rico smirks at one point. "You better break some s***."
Since her early mixtape days all the way up to her 2020 debut album, Nightmare Vacation, Rico has waded in sonic dichotomy to blend her signature sound, deemed "sugar trap," and in the process, became a beacon for women in rap to eloquently express their anger. As one of the DMV's most formidable forces, Rico always compels her fans to jump up, take charge and never apologize for what they feel.

How do you love rap when rap doesn’t love you back? From Rico Nasty’s harassment from toxic Carti fans, to Saucy Santana's unapologetically femme aesthetics in a queerphobic industry, to the assault case that put Megan Thee Stallion’s entire image on trial, each episode of Louder Than A Riot - the second season of our investigative hip-hop podcast - unpacks the unspoken rules of rap that hold the entire culture back. Tap in to our first episode at n.pr/louder-season-2.
Rage absolutely slaps with a band
If this was the touring set up I'd be first in line.
Bro😭😭
sounding like RATM
i got FULL BODY chills dude oh my god yeah
@@Hogy58 I was really thinking the same with the way Liso Lee was ripping the guitar, RAGE!
You gotta tour with this band right tf now 😭
I said the same thing 😭 The vibe was amazing 😭
The guitarist is currently doing Gwen Steffani's residency
Exactly!!!!
fr!!!!
I neeeeeed it!
Clearly a woman who refuses to be defined by one style, she reaches and grabs them all quite well!
This the one! She really does. 💯💯💯 We gotta keep showing love. She been dat! Female rap shouldn’t be in such a box. ‘Hip Hop Runs The World!’ 🔥💪🏾
You hit the nail on the head. She switches styles smoother than a train switches tracks. She is a whole baddie too. She overcame brutal situations with the death of her fella awhile back. She really overcame.
Oh okay👀
Rico reminds me of my mum's p!nk era 😩💜
Sugar trap!!!
miss nasty was just YELLING and then the song ends and she’s like “🥺🥺thanks for having me guys👉🏻👈🏻👉🏻👈🏻”
She turns it on and off so quick 🤣🤣
She cute afffff
Love this about her
Snapped my mf head off then said “thanks” so sweetly.. this woman serves
She was born to perform i swear. Her energy is so contagious
the stylistic range in this is incredible
tiny desk: "you have 15 minutes"
rico nasty: "no YOU have 15 minutes"
trap metal rico is where its at
I’m SAYIN 😩🙌🏾✨
The 2 first songs shows perfectly her incredible vocal range... So impressed!!!!!!!
Thanks!
The duality is why she’s my fave
@HUUUUUURRRR listen to taco Bella lol
@HUUUUUURRRR everybody hears things definitely..
Trust, I understand where you’re coming from..
She sound like Kali on the first one
She needs a metal album asap
Her making a trap metal album with the likes of zillakami,scarlxrd,and jasiah would be sick
@@chrysgalarza190 pretty sure shes friends with zilla or at least knows him
@@chrysgalarza190 and shes had songs with jasiah
♠️
I'VE BEEN SAYING THIS FOR AGES!!! SHE HAS THE POTENTIAL FOR IT AND I THINK HER STYLE WOULD WORK PERFECTLY WITH IT!! Plus she's already shown huge interest in hyperpop with her newest album which have a lot of artist who mix it with metal so I'm really just waiting for when she learns to scream then I will properly ascend to te heavens
This is proof that she doesn’t need to perform with the backing song tracks at concerts and festivals! Her voice is naturally clear and great live!! 🔥
i feel like she has work her voice alot since
She's usually jumping around a lot at concerts, maybe thats it? Or maybe it's a lack of confidence
@@tedros6917 singing for a whole show require alot of practice.
Its not the same as recording where you can pause whenever you want.
I feel like i heard an itw where she talk about it but not sure
@@tedros6917 To be honest, I like Rico but the way she performs at concerts and festivals is no different than what she was doing here! But at the same time, I understand what you’re saying
Mark of a true artist and musician- performs better without the backing tracks and beats. Sounds better with live instruments.
Rico Nasty is a creative masterpiece. Only thing I was waiting for was a “WHOA KENNY” on the beat
Yeahhhh! Woah kenny up in this piece
Saaame 🥲
YASSSSSSSS 🤣
The lead guitarist gon have to take my number the way they KILLED this set
Me looking respectfully at their 💪👀
Without question.
So themz some nice tones. What effects and pedals u use? I use rose petals. *Pulls out a bouquet.*
😎😎😎😎😎😎
Rage is definitely an instant pit opener. Somebodies getting bodied with this version.
Rage literally gave me chills..... alt girl band ftw y'all.....
Trust Rico to have an all girl POC band!!!!😭😭😭😭😭😭🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
Your welcome! 😁
@@SSingh-nc8hb wdym? …. .
@@SSingh-nc8hb you really thought you did something there huh. Just say you don’t support women / BIPOC and move along. Or don’t, bc you in the wrong place for that 😇
@@SSingh-nc8hb huh
Ok you see her drummer🔥🔥🔥
One of the best alternative artist, if you get the chance to see her live take it.
I saw the beginning of one of her sets and the energy omg…
@@queenshayh I escorted/chaperone my 'play neice' and loved every part of her set.
saw her at lolla and she did so good!! i was so proud of her
Yeah her live sets are dope
I will since she add europeans dates
This version of Rage is hype
I know Rico started with trap but she really need to consider making a hard rock or metal album. Seriously!
Why not trap metal?
@@chrysgalarza190 she kinda already does that
I agree
i would be sooo happy
Her singing voice is amazing! The range! Versatility! Pure talent ofc
This band HAS to tour. Oh my god this was godly
Badu on the drums. Whole band = blessed. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
@@incomeinvestingwithchristi3972 she plays piano not drums
rico needs a full band 24/7, this is so much better than the backtracks
why did she BODY magic like that 😭
They won me with ‘Rage’.
I really want Rico to record a whole album with this band.
This was dope I loved it and after hearing this she needs a band full-time a full album with her and that band would be very interesting
Agree
EXACTLY
YES
Yesss
A go-go band to represent DC
crying cause why is this my first time seeing this. I-
Rico Nasty is such a unique artist. She’s in her own bracket when it comes to style, music, sound, etc.
I love this woman’s music. I could listen to her until I’m old and gray.
Same here
Facts
I’m gray. Co sign.
@@incomeinvestingwithchristi3972 word
The Asian girl was truly raginggggg I love it
I think I just fell in love with the bassist
(Rico and all the other members of the band killed it as well tho, looooved this performance)
Unfortunately have never heard of her before and that second song is not something I would usually think if searching for ...but that was life changing . Amazing voice and band .
Nahhhh more than I could’ve asked for. She needs a band with her all the time
RICO, HER STYLE, HER MUSIC, HER PERSONALITY EVERYTHING IS JUS PERFECT
erykah badu went crazy on the drums
Stg 😂
That's not her. Unless that was a look-alike joke and in that case...ha! 🤣
Right?! She looks so much like her, i was like "i'm ready for that rimshot baby" hahah
Lol you had me tripping
I literally thought it was her at first 😂
That second song caught me so off guard and I'm here for it!
It’s my theme song. 🤣
I freaking LOVE her voice. So raspy, so full of FIRE.
The live band outros for all of these songs are freaking on point. Hope she tours with the full band.
magic sounded gorgeous, and rage was iconic with the live band🥵i raged for the whole set !!! so iconic rico
The way I've been obsessed with this woman for years. This was so good, I'm basing my halloween on this performance. Also imma need her to do a cover of all of her songs with this band.
Got me at work head banging at 4 am 🔥
Yes it's the metal for me
I heard the first riff and knew what time it was 😂🔥
🌮 Why does Rico sound better live?
she sounds good studio or live
I feel like most people have to have effects to do what she does with her instrument . So her live is really satisfying and dope lol
There is a difference between artistry and studio effects. I can appreciate both but I prefer live.
when you let your emotions bleed into your performances it will always be gr8
@@BenlshTracker facts
Lol people that don’t know her were probably very confused going from the first song to the second haha
Yeah. My bestie had no clue who she is but loves to discover artist on TD. She was so confused. I told her Rico can't be put in a box.
I NEED more of Rico with this band, I would spend bank to see them all live
I was like “Why does the guitarist have a 7 strin…….. oh wow 😯”
🔥🔥🔥
It’s a 6 string!
Bruh this gave me goosebumps. I love rico, she just switched from two different genres in too different songs. The amount of talent she possesses is ridiculous.
This is my hype video, these women KILLED IT. They ate it up and left no crumbs, It's been a year and I still come back to this lol I need more like this-
I'm on my 5th rewatch 😭
she’s so good live omgg
I am for the live band👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 Rico sounds in her element with the live band. Plus her voice sounds extremely clear. If she tours, I encourage her to have a band💕💕💕
I truly hope she does 💜
Magic: this isn't very nasty at all.
Rage: oh nvm.
SHE WENT ABSOLUTELY FERAL 🔥🔥🔥🔥
This is definitely a performance I’m gonna be replaying for the rest of my life.
I’m not too familiar with her music so going from the 1st to the 2nd song was jarring LOL
i’m more used to her older music so the first song had me confused-
i jUMPed but then I vibed
I need all of her songs recorded live w this band on Spotify IMMEDIATELY
This is literally my favorite tiny desk hands down. Ricooooo plz put this on Spotify this is a whole vibbbbbe
Having grown up in the 90s it's just wonderful to see how this generation embraces hand made, honest, rock vibes.
🤟
Will smith's wife had a metal band in the 90s.
I hope every alternative/goth person of color is having a great day. 💀🔥
Gonna need a Rico metal album now
i want this version of rage on spotify so bad omg
She deserved a live audience that was LIT!!!!
rock and rap belong together 😍
You know you’re the realest when you have Erykah Badu playing the drums for you
Someone pointed out that the drummer is actually a woman named “Tiffani Walker”. I thought she was Erykah too lol
@@brittlia_ haha I know it’s not Erykah
Why did I scream💀
Cyndi Lauper, Nicki Minaj, and the Beastie Boys had a baby
Rico Nasty is kinda like a female version of Nicki Minaj. Or maybe a more masculine Beastie Boys
I really hope you smooth brains can listen to artists without calling them a version or combination of another artists someday
@@nibyafternight1983 isn't nicki female...
Yo, Trust Issues is a different feel with a live band... I want more of this.
I don't get why the crowd booed her I really like this .. this is literally what the early 2000 kids wanted rap and punk rock ... don't sit there and tell me your playlist doesn't have a mix of rap and rock
This was my first time listening to Rico and she is fiyaaaaaaaaaa!!! Ya hear me? Every song knocks
My day has been made😭😭😭😭😭
Yes I was like AMEN
I said the same thing before I even watched it
The number of times I watched/listened to this is outta this world.
SO CRAZY GOOD!! Gotta be my favourite tiny desk this year! Rico with an All-girl POC band is amazing!!
wow rico, this was so good. so much improvement over the years and that all-girl band sound so good behind her, it rly brings her style out. they had those arrangements tight and I like that soft song she did in the beginning.
TRUST ISSUES WILL ALWAYS BE MY SONG DAWG. SINCE HIGHSCHOOL
Always !
SAME!!!
Same it's goes so hard
I want to see her collab with Willow Smith
that would be a great collab
Yess please
Wiliow can't sing live tho
Would be dope
@@danielwilliams693 lies
She is a gem 💎 💎 💎 She’s exactly where she needs to be in the music industry. Untainted & Preserved.
I loved this so much. It’s 6am and I’m hype asf rn
oh my god Rico and everyone in the band KILLED THIS!!
i never knew i would ever get to hear rage perform with a live band... i just love this omg!!!!!!!!!!
That breathing control through the WHOLE TINY DESK WOMAN, UNMATCHABLE
QUEEEEEN
rico, is very diverse. her sugartrap style is unmatched. and this banddddd
i see you everywhere fr.. 😭😭
@@heavensentslut thanks! (i think?)
It’s crazy to see this cus i real live went to school with her 😅proud of her and happy she’s elevating and exceeding her dreams!
Watching from DC, I love her💯😝
I've come back to this video like 10 times now
Rico is revolutionizing rap, I can’t wait to see what she’s going to do next! A QUEEN! 😩😩😩💚💚💚💚
Rico's performances are always dope! She has her own lane.
Great screamer voice
I NEED a Rico Nu Metal album
We love to see an all female band😝🔥.
Side note: I thought the woman on the drums was Erykah Badu for a second😩😂.
Nice. Who are the guitar and bass players? Oh nevermind, i see their names in the video description
So delete the comment 🤣
@@mediumChungus69 I think she's part of the band
Melanieeeee 💕
@@neneee2435 her name isn't there lol
@@mediumChungus69 yh I realized that. She is a guitarist who has been in other Tiny Desk Concerts tho.
After that good first song I was tooootally not expecting the next two 😂 I liked it tho
Been rocking with Rico since 2015, so proud of her. Putting on for the DMV!
The all female band killed it! WOWOW
1:40 Those vocals on “show”. Such a beautiful sound. Wish I could condense it and burn it as incense in my home.
This is the femme punk band I’ve dreamed of my entire life
L7 is an all girl band. My favorite song is "mantra down"
RICO!! 😍😍😍
I would love nothing more than to see her cross genres and put out a rock/grunge/metal record. She definitely has the chops for it.
they all snapped...every song felt different and super fresh. goosebumps
Rico is so versatile, I love her
Very happy to see you able to showcase your blatant talent and versatility on a platform like Tiny Desk. All these versions are so hard !!!!!!
*I woulda even loved her 15 years ago when I worked at Tower Records,* but I definitely love her now.💕💯 It's the red popcorn shirt too, it's 🔥
Need a whole album with them as a band just like this 🎸🤘🏾🔥
Rico crosses several different genres of music, and this makes her stand out above the rest of the female rappers.
Had to come back 5 months later this too fire
I just found my new favorite jams.
wow so mad i barely came across this . been listening to rico for a minute now .. the range is crazy !!!!!!!
