New Song: Azealia Banks – ‘Jumanji’

Get into ‘Jumanji’, the latest effort by Azealia Banks.

The lead single for her ‘Fantastic‘ mixtape due out this summer, it arrives three weeks after the MC announced her signing to Lady GaGa’s management team- headed by Troy Carter.

Listen below…

On a production front, the cut ‘slays’ but on a vocal tip it really is more of the same.

For, as quick and witty as her lyrics are, they’re almost identical to almost every other number she’s put out- suffering from the same ‘I’m better than you and I’m going to talk about it in every song‘  syndrome Nicki Minaj has.

We’d say- if she wants a follow up as huge as ‘212’ her best bet is to whip up songs akin to MIA’s ‘Galang‘ and her very own ‘1991‘, as we doubt ‘Jumanji’ will do much to win over new listeners.

  4. Damn May 11, 2012

  5. OpD2 May 11, 2012

    she is doing her.

  6. Justathought (Azealia Banks is here.) May 11, 2012

    She goes in on every song I’ve heard so far. I hope she keeps it up and doesn’t get lazy. Kudos Ms Banks.

  7. nikoyuki May 11, 2012

    Its so hard to be mad at her when she gives us so much goodness. I want 1991 and the album now, this song is hawt. The beat flow and breakdown is sick as hell.

  8. TEAMFOXYDONDIVA May 11, 2012

    Thank you azeally!!!!

  9. Ciara coming May 11, 2012

    b**** breathe wtf..would she ever slow down in her raps?? it always sound like she speaking p** latin.. i just can’t with her!!! I need Missy and Eve right about now.

  10. kingphoenix May 11, 2012

    The only problem is that she is using some stuff repeatedly from other cuts, but this is what majority rappers do so I am not really mad, i just know she has so much more to inspire us with! @Sam what the hell are you talking about “vocal tip” she’s rapping on this cut not singing. Jumjani is really nice, but i have been waiting for 1991 single to come out forever now! lol

  11. Justathought (Azealia Banks is here) May 11, 2012

    ^^in the words of Weezy ” I ain’t talking fast, you just listening Too slow!” LOL

  12. Cockiness May 11, 2012

    wtf is she talking about???

  13. BLACK MADONNA May 11, 2012

    SHE AINT SAYIN NOTHIN THAT MAKE SENSE.. AND PEOPLE TALK ABOUT NICKI??

  14. FentyEmpire May 11, 2012

    Sorry but this song is not it. Please stop acting like this song in anything but garbanzo beans. Seriously I cannot believe some of you actually think this is “fire” & I’m not even a Lil Kim or Nicki stan! Don’t see or hear the hype. This girl’s lyrical ability is sad. Very repetitive & redundant.

  15. SunsetDrop May 11, 2012

    Lmao! Yall are too quick to say Nicki Minaj sucks but yet you cosign this s***? Wtf did I just hear? At least Nicki spat straight fire back on her mixtape days & when she’s not lazy! This is a f****** mess! Yall hyping this girl too much, her skills are not what I expected them to be compared to what I was hearing about her.

  16. mONSTERHIVE May 11, 2012

    Why? I loved her 212 cut! But this song is horrible! She needs to do better cause all I heard was noise. Why can’t 2 female rap artists co exist in this industry? Nicki & Azealia are like night & day! They can’t be compared cause they look different, they sound different, & they are appealing to different audiences. She won’t be replacing anybody. If Lil Kim couldn’t erase Nicki, who Nicki has stated many times is a rap icon, than this newcomer won’t do the task as well. Keep reaching for the stars tho.

  17. TheOuyonB May 11, 2012

    Outside of her having a nasty attitude, and vexed persona, she bores me. More concerned with beef and drama than her music or musical content. I don’t have time for this lil girl. Traditional Hater Mentality,very typical with NY Rappers… smh

  18. Viciousss May 11, 2012

    Wow…hope it gets Better from here cause this…? Smh, she gonna fall off that hard, that fast after beefing with everybody and their momma.

  19. kingphoenix May 11, 2012

    Yall are so dumb…

  20. QueenSize May 11, 2012

    Aaaahhh…..I don’t understand what she is saying. I love hip hop to my bones. I appreciate her attempts. So far 212 is the only joint that has my attention. It’s straight to the point. Clean spitting. Give me more of that or else I’m gonna have to try to get back on my grind and show you way rap is about.

  21. POP ROYALTY ( RéVolution) May 11, 2012

    i’m so blessed i don’t talk her language. but she can do a lot better.

    i’m so XD for her. she gonna be big someday 🙂

  22. prettigurlrockD May 11, 2012

    some foxy brown and lauryn hill rip off. Next.

  23. Queen. May 11, 2012

    I instantly fell in love with “212” and “F*** Up The Fun”, but I have to give this a few more listens. But as of now, I don’t like what I’m hearing.

  24. KING TASHA May 11, 2012

    Biiiiiitch yes maam

  25. mjm May 11, 2012

  26. RP May 11, 2012

    Ignorant people will think it’s Nicki at first. Mmm, not a good thing. Leave Nicki’s flow alone.

  27. LMAO May 11, 2012

    Nice. It’s really catchy.

    Nicki is the better rapper. Azealia is the better singer.

  28. qBa May 11, 2012

    I LIKE THE BEAT BETTER THAN THE RAP. OR MAYBE I NEED 2 SEE IT LIVE.

  29. Unique May 11, 2012

    I have no idea whats she’s saying..If I knew what she was talking about, maybe I’d be able to get inyo it.. *shrugs*

  30. Gaaglooo! May 11, 2012

    P**** P**** P****, P**** P**** P****!!!!

  31. Porsha May 11, 2012

    She’s better than the White girl, but Nikki is better than them both..at least I can figure out what Nikki is saying….but this chick here??!??!!

  32. Bully May 11, 2012

    @QBA I feel the same

    & people always clown Nicki for some reason and gives this mumbling mumbo jumbo, wtf is she saying yabba daba doo s*** pass? Then she sunds like shes jackin styles.

    I dont understand the world but Its just one song Im willing to give home girl a chance to get comfortable.

  33. Viciousss May 12, 2012

    I fuxx with the beat but the rapping is s***…I kinda wish I’d hear a Nicki rap on this beat cause this kinda sound like her kinda style.

    But this…nah son.

  34. likeCAESAR May 12, 2012

    DOPE!!!!!!!!!!

    I DONT EVEN LIKE THIS CHICK…HOPE MISSY JUMP ON THIS ONE!

  35. cunty252 May 12, 2012

    YOU BROKE B****** DONT KNOW S*** ABOUT B-A-N-K-S BUT SHE IS HERE TO STAY. TELL NICKI TO GO SING HER ASS A LULLABY AND GET THE F*CK OUT MY FACE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! JUMANJI SLAYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THAT BAM-BAMBI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  36. Strange4sumchange May 12, 2012

    its called lyrical exercise (which she mastered btw).. its not for everyone but if you really listen to the song you can understand clearly. not every rapper male or female can do what shes doing wit her words and she kno that. its actually ridiculous how advanced she is for her to be so young… dont care much if people think her attitude sucks cuz her music speaks for itself.. Nicki garbaj aint got s*** on her cept a two piece thighs and center breast wit a side of batshit crazy
