RICO NASTY UNVEILS TOYQUBE COLLECTIBLE FIGURINE
Rico Nasty is once again breaking new ground with the milestone release of a spectacular new ToyQube Collectable Figurine. Visualized in collaboration with acclaimed illustrative designer/animator Rhymezlikedimez, the limited edition, high end figurine is available beginning today, exclusively via mobile-first video shopping platform NTWRK
The 6” Rico Nasty figure envisioned by the Belgium-based Rhymezlikedimez brings to life all things Sugar Trap – from a rotating Lollipop, Tamagotchi, flower base details, spikes, and of course, an iconic wardrobe look inspired by Rico’s rockstar attitude. An array of extras are also included, featuring a 12” x 16.5” signed, limited edition artist print introducing the visual world of NIGHTMARE VACATION, limited to only 150 risograph prints, numbered and signed by Rhymezlikedimez with a Certificate of Authenticity signed by Rico Nasty herself.
“I’ve been working with Rico on a visualizer a while ago,” says Robin Velghe aka Rhymezlikedimez. “In those talks, the idea of a wider approach of the whole NIGHTMARE VACATION juxtaposition theme started back then. To be here now, with a figurine, a riso print, cool extras… I’m so happy that we can share this one with the world. Rico is so unique and genuine so it was awesome working with her on this design. And I can only hope I translated that in the right way. A cool extra is that it’s the very first Rhymezlikedimez figurine. Which gives a sort of sneak peak of what’s to happen in the Rhymez universe for the coming years.”
Recent weeks have also seen Rico Nasty heralding her revolutionary new era by teasing her upcoming new single, “Money,” at such festivals as Rolling Loud NYC. “Money” will mark the latest in an acclaimed series of tracks that include “Magic“ and “Buss,” both available now at all DSPs and streaming services. Hailed by Rolling Stone for its “shimmery, summer-ready production,” “Magic” is joined by an official music video streaming now at the Punk Rock Princess’s official YouTube channel HERE. “Buss“ was met by unanimous critical applause from media outlets such as Rolling Stone, Pitchfork, XXL, The FADER, and NME, to name but a few. An official music video is streaming HERE, while Rico’s electrifying preview performance of “Buss” from this summer’s Lollapalooza can be viewed now via YouTube HERE.
An incredible live performer known for her non-stop onstage action, Rico is currently traveling North America as special guest on Playboi Carti’s epic “King Vamp Tour,” with arena dates scheduled through late December. For complete details and ticket availability, please see www.riconastymusic.com.
