4 out of 5 stars

“New Cayenne, that’s pepper, new Attico boots, I’m a stepper.”
Woo! Rico Nasty is turnt up early on her brief but hella potent single, “PEPPER”.  That should be obvious given her play on words with an expensive, badass Porsche SUV, and those hot cayenne peppers.  Rico Nasty wrote this sub-two-minute, peppery rap banger with producer Kenny Beats (Kenneth Blume).

Fittingly, “PEPPER” is set in a minor key. Blume gives Rico Nasty a fiery, malicious electronic hip-hop backdrop. Rico takes it and runs with it, delivering an assertive and aggressive performance.  The cadence and flow are nothing short of compelling.  With plenty of memorable lyrics, among the highlights are “I been on for a minute, these niggas be trippin’, I’m practicin’ safe sex,” “New Rick’s, these Rico’s can’t break bread with no freak ho / He eatin’ my ass and you kissed ‘em,” and “Cowgirl shit, put that ho’ on reverse / He lovin’ the way that I ride.”  Oh, snap! The chorus is the section to beat, inundated wit dat pepper, yo!

“Cop me a Porchianna, hop out like a hoochie mama

He want this coochie, na-na, making her nigga sing, ‘Ouchie wallah’

Finger, finger fuck the check up, I got ice on from the neck up

F–, foot all on they necks, they couldn’t pay a bitch to let up.”

Holy moly! To reiterate, “PEPPER” is brief, but yo girl Rico Nasty brings dat heat, NO CAP!
