Rican Da Menace is relatively new to the rap scene. Still, everything she’s dropped so far proves that she’s a force to be reckoned with. In 2022 she made her mark with “Ain’t Going Back,” and afterward, she showed out on “I Admit It” to close out the year. She’s already shared her first single of 2023, “Uh Ohhh,” and this New Music Friday (February 17), the rising star returned with more.
For her first collaborative effort, the Baltimore baddie linked up with Moneybagg Yo. The two carry their own weight through their respective verses on “DUMB,” a turnt up new tune featuring production from Hitmaka and Tay Keith. Since premiering earlier this weekend, Da Menace has earned upwards of 47K streams on Spotify alone.
“Ran up all these M’s before I’m twenty-five / If it ain’t an AP, ho’, that’s just a waste of time,” the 21-year-old boasts on the first verse. Later on, her guest feature comes through with impressive bars of his own. “Look how I mix the Prada sweater with Bottega slippers / Call me Mr. Put-It-On, certified dripper,” he cheekily raps.
Along with “DUMB” arrives a BenMarc-directed visual in which Rican puts her bank heist skills to the test. Moneybagg also makes an appearance, joining his collaborator to get his rhymes off for the camera while chiefly flexing his impressive jewelry collection. For her last music video, the female artist recruited Chrisean Rock to join her. Working with the Memphis native on this release is certainly a step up, proving that there are no limits to what Da Menace is able to achieve.

Quotable Lyrics:
First name Classic (Bitch), middle name Nasty (Ooh)
Broke gang sus, but a bitch ain’t laughin’ (Haha)
I can’t f*ck with bitch n*ggas, broke n*ggas ashy (Yeah)
Pull up on me, bitch is you dumb? I’m just askin’ (Hello, the f*ck?)
