LETHAL (2025)

LETHAL is the third studio album by Rico Nasty, released on May 16, 2025, via Fueled by Ramen . Executive produced by Imad Royal, the album dives into Rico’s evolution at 27, shedding past personas for a more authentic voice . It blends her signature “female rage” and heavy guitars with softer, introspective moments—spanning metal screams on “Smoke Break,” punk-pop energy on “Teethsucker (YEA3x),” and emotional depth on “On the Low” and “Smile” . Critics praise its raw ambition, though some note its genre-hopping feels uneven . Following Las Ruinas (2022), LETHAL cements Rico’s place at the intersection of rap, rock, punk, and personal storytelling—bold, boundary-pushing, and unapologetically hers.
