Rico Nasty and the Importance of Black Women’s Anger in Rap
The snarling guitars of her raucous track “Rage” transfix the audience at every Rico Nasty show, indicating it’s time for a mosh pit. Her DJ, Miles, is jumping off the booth and ordering the revved-up crowd to wait until the beat drops. Then, as Nasty puts it, “He’s going left, and I’m going correct, and we’re just jumping around the entire point.”
Meanwhile, the females in the crowd are huddling towards the front or just jumping up and down, shaking their hair, holding up their hands, and vigorously crying out the lyrics of the sugar trap queen. It’s for them this time. Rico’s mosh pits rapidly became one of her trademarks for providing females, particularly black women, with a rare secure room to release their pent-up anger.
Rico Nasty leads a fresh generation of female hip-hop artists who craft catharsis from anger, especially in the light of her latest mixtape Anger Management. She is joined by Princess Nokia’s likes, renowned at her shows for calling colored girls to the front, comparing herself to Mortal Kombat assassin Kitana, and taking physical action against sexist, racist individuals invading her room;
The concept of the “angry black woman” is an ancient and insidious one, with origins as callous, readily agitated, and full of attitude in post-Civil War portrayals of black females. This damaging typecasting gas illuminates black females and casts off their understandable anger as they move through a sexist, racist globe. It gives you the right to rage after you have been taught to suppress the anger.
The same can be said in music about the visionary black females who dared to rage. However, their anger often went to their professions and lives at a price. Nina Simone flourished among high-brow kinds of jazz until she began to release pointed protest hymns such as “Mississippi Goddam,” a heart-wrenching ode to two racist tragedies of 1963 (Medgar Evers ‘ murder in Mississippi and 16).
