Pretty Ricky: Hip-Hop Group in New York

About Pretty Ricky

Pretty Ricky is a Miami-born R&B and hip-hop group that first took shape around brothers Diamond and Spectacular Smith, alongside Corey Mathis and Marcus Cooper. Built on a lead-singer center with rapped support, the group’s lineup shifted after Pleasure P left in 2007, leading to rotating vocal roles over time. In New York City’s orbit, they’ve brought that club-rooted blend to arena stages including Barclays Center, with additional dates at Prudential Center. Their performances favor tight vocal hooks and conversational rap verses over elaborate narrative framing.
