Rico Nasty has shared an intense new track called ‘Black Punk’ – check it out below.The new song follows the rapper’s recent single ‘Intrusive’ and is the latest material to hint at a follow-up to 2020 debut album ‘Nightmare Vacation’.Speaking to Kerrang!

about the song’s meaning, she said: “Being a black punk person, walking into certain rooms is very uncomfortable. People look at you like they’re fucking afraid of you.

People count you out. People downplay you. People think you’re weird.“This song is for my weirdos who resonate with that sense of alienation that comes with being just who you are.

I thought it was very important to acknowledge my black people, because they’re just starting to get acknowledged in the punk space.
