Rico Nasty’s new single “Vaderz,” which features Bktherula, now has an official music video.
Rico Nasty’s fantastic album Nightmare Vacation was published in the end of 2020, and she’s been constantly releasing one-off songs since then: “Magic,” “Buss,” and the Flo Milli collaboration “Money.” Rico is rumored to be working on a new mixtape after performing with Doja Cat at Coachella this past weekend. She’s released a new tune today, a duet with rising Atanta rapper Bktherula.
Rico has a variety of genres, and the new tune “Vaderz” sees her return to the frenzied, punk-influenced SoundCloud rap that first made her famous. Rico and Bktherula have amazing on-record chemistry, and the song packs a lot of jagged energy into two minutes. The two of them alternate lines, matching each other’s enthusiasm and timing their punchlines. “That ho bananers if she believed I was green and mad like Invader Zim,” Bktherula says. “No Hannah Montaner/ This ain’t no double life, bitch, it’s the way I live,” Rico says. Check out the frantic lo-fi video for “Vaderz” below.
