Rico Nasty’s interview chronicles her rise to fame. Describing herself as “a rapper, rock star and mommy,” Nasty says she defines her success as: “Not necessarily being stagnant or complacent, but just at peace with where you are in life.”
“I started out being all me, me, me, and then, the more time I spent in the industry, the more I wanted to start building a ladder to help all the other girls that haven’t seen what I’ve seen, because it’s something you want to share with the world,” she said.
