Early life

Maria-Cecilia Simone Kelly was born an only child in Largo, Maryland to a Puerto Rican mother and an African American father, who was a rapper and exposed her to rap music at a very young age. She was raised in Prince George's County, Maryland & grew up listening to artists like Bob Marley, Beyoncé, Jay-Z, Nas, and Jill Scott.[4][5][2][6]

At age eleven, she and her mother moved to the Palmer Park area of Maryland. When she was in the sixth grade, Kelly's parents enrolled her in a Baltimore boarding school. That same year, her parents divorced.[4] Kelly was expelled from the boarding school after she and another student were caught with marijuana at age fourteen.[7] She then returned to Prince George's County and attended Charles Herbert Flowers High School where she began making music.[8][5]

Career

2014–2017: Career beginnings and early mixtapes

Rico started rapping in high school, and released her first mixtape, Summer's Eve (2014), when she was in tenth grade at Charles Herbert Flowers High School.[9][7] After graduating from high school, she started focusing on her music career and released two mixtapes in 2016: The Rico Story and Sugar Trap. Rico Nasty gained some prominence with her 2016 single "iCarly" which amassed over 500 thousand views on YouTube within months.[7][10] She also released the single "Hey Arnold," which was later remixed featuring Atlanta rapper Lil Yachty.[11] The duo would later link again in 2017 for the single "Mamacita" as part of The Fate of the Furious: The Album soundtrack.[10][12]

In May 2017, Rico released the mixtape, Tales of Tacobella, in which she adopted a "vulnerable, sensitive persona".[13][14] In June 2017, Kelly released her single "Poppin'" which quickly garnered over five million views on YouTube.[2] The single was also featured on the HBO television series Insecure.[15] Kelly's fifth mixtape Sugar Trap 2 was released in October 2017 and featured an appearance from rapper Famous Dex.[16] Critics of Rolling Stone listed the mixtape as one of the Best Rap Albums of 2017.[17] Rico embarked on the Sugar Trap Tour in late 2017.[18]

2018–2019: Nasty and Anger Management

The singles "Smack A Bitch", "Poppin'" and "Key Lime OG" gained prominence in early 2018; all of them meeting and exceeding 10 million YouTube views in that year.[19] The former two songs additionally gained some popularity on the video-sharing platform TikTok after being using in various memes.[20][21] "Smack A Bitch" was also ranked at No. 2 on The Fader's list of "The 100 Best Songs of 2018".[22] The aforementioned influx of popularity helped catch the attention of Atlantic Records, where Rico signed and released her sixth mixtape and major-label debut, Nasty, in June 2018.[23][24] The mixtape was generally well received and landed on critics lists of publications such as Rolling Stone,[25] Pitchfork,[26] Stereogum,[27] Noisey,[28] Fact,[29] and Spin,[30] among several others. The mixtape's tracks, "Bitch I'm Nasty", "Countin' Up" and "Rage", were also named as some of the best songs of 2018 by Paper, Highsnobiety and Pitchfork respectively.[31][32][33] In late July, Rico Nasty embarked on her headlining The Nasty Tour to support the mixtape, playing twenty-seven different venues across North America over six weeks and completing the tour in early September.[34]

Rico Nasty released the non-album singles and respective music videos for "Guap (LaLaLa)" in December 2019,[35] as well as "Roof" in January 2019.[36] She followed them up with several more non-album singles in early 2019 such as "Sandy",[37] "Party Goin Dumb",[38] "Big Dick Energy",[39] "Hit That",[40] and "Wanna Do".[41] In April 2019, Rico Nasty and producer Kenny Beats supported singer Khalid during the opening night of the Free Spirit World Tour.[42] Rico Nasty made the cover of The Fader for their Summer 2018 issue,[5][43] and was the subject of a documentary produced by the publication titled Countin' Up.[44][45]

In April 2019, Rico and producer Kenny Beats released the collaborative mixtape, Anger Management, as a surprise release.[46] The mixtape received critical acclaim and made the critics' lists of several publications including Complex,[47] Rolling Stone,[48] Stereogum,[49] Noisey,[50] Billboard,[51] NME,[52] and Crack.[53] Anger Management is arguably Rico Nasty's most successful release to date, both commercially and critically.[54] To support the record, Rico embarked on her "Live in Europe" tour starting in late May and ending in mid July.[55]

2020: Nightmare Vacation

In June 2020, Rico Nasty’s single "Smack a Bitch" (2017) was certified Gold by the Recording Industry Association of America for selling over 500,000 units in the United States.[56] On August 7, 2020, Rico Nasty appeared alongside Colombian-American singer Kali Uchis on the song, "Aquí Yo Mando", taken from Uchis' upcoming second studio album.[57] On August 13, 2020, Rico Nasty released the single "iPhone" as the lead single of her debut studio album, Nightmare Vacation.[58] On the same day, she announced that she would be collaborating with makeup brand Il Makiage on a new makeup line.[59]
