Nettspend's debut studio album, Early Life Crisis, and his debut mixtape, Bad Ass Fucking Kid, are available to shop on CD on Complex.
The Richmond, Virginia, rapper has been building toward this moment since he was 16, when his early one-off track "shine n peace" landed on The New York Times' "Best Songs of 2023" list. Now 18, Nettspend has become a generational force with a cultlike following that tracks his every move online.
Both projects reflect the weight of growing up too fast in a world that doesn't wait, capturing the stress, worry, and angst of a youth culture navigating chaos without warning. Armed with a woozy flow, dizzyingly bit-crushed beats, and an ear for unexpected hooks, Nettspend paints a picture of what it means to come of age when adulthood arrives before you're ready.
