Rico Nasty – Headlining Tour
Last week, Rico Nasty announced her new album RX out July 24, produced by Kenneth Blume (formerly KennyBeats) along with the release of new single “Cupcake” – which saw massive support from outlets including Alternative Press, Pitchfork, The FADER, Rolling Stone, Stereogum, Consequence, Brooklyn Vegan, The Needle Drop and HotNewHipHop, noting “over Kenny’s production, she reminds listeners why she’s remained one of rap’s most unpredictable voices.”
Adding to the excitement of Rico and Blume’s new collaboration, she announces headlining tour dates coinciding with her supporting dates with Hayley Williams through mid October. The new dates include stops in St. Louis, Jacksonville, Brooklyn, Buffalo, Grand Rapids, Bellingham, Little Rock, Fort Worth, San Antonio and Mesa.

Rico’s new album RX was recorded between filming her AppleTV+ debut on Margot’s Got Money Troubles – starring alongside Elle Fanning, Michelle Pfeiffer, Nicole Kidman, Nick Offerman, Lindsey Normington – and her 2025 Fall tour, Rico found herself striving to craft an album that reminded fans of why they fell in love with her in the first place.
The latest single “Cupcake” follows “Rituals” in early June.
Without overthinking it, she re-connected with Blume, hoping to capture that boastful energy heard on their Anger Management mixtape in 2019 and her punk-rap fused hit “SMACK A BITCH” from debut album Nightmare Vacation in 2020. “I missed someone that was honest with me,” Rico notes. “And I missed someone who knew me back then, before I had any success. I felt like if I’m going to get back to doing me, I should go back to someone who can be real with me, somebody who’s not too serious or draining.”
The songs emerged from four months of sessions, resulting in vintage Rico Nasty: dynamic, fierce, and funny. The undeniable chemistry between her and Blume remains as strong as ever with Dylan Brady (100 Gecs) also contributing to the record and producing “Butthead.”
