Her viral hits have helped not only solidify Rico Nasty position in the music industry, but they've also expanded her fanbase. The 23-year-old has been storming the scene as she blends rap, rock, art, and fashion in unconventional dimensions, making her one of the most sought after women in the game. On Friday (December 4), Rico Nasty shared her debut studio album Nightmare Vacation, and she said it was a project that helped her develop as a person.

“I feel like I haven't gone through something like this since my son," she told Apple Music. "I feel like when you're working on music and makeup and merch and all these other different avenues, you get swamped; I think that's the reason why I chose to name it Nightmare Vacation, too." Rico added that she fell into the trap of having others dictate her life, schedule, goals, and the like, so it was time for her to take the reigns. She also shared that she didn't rush her creative process or ride some trend's wave, so she feels this is her authentic self.

“Being your own person can be scary sometimes because you don't know if people are going to love it or hate it, but I feel the way I dress prepared me for this as well. I don't care about the naysayers.” Nightmare Vacation features looks by Don Toliver, Gucci Mane, Animé, Trippie Redd, ppcocaine, Rubi Rose, and Sukihana.
