It’s finally here.
Yes, in what might see her surpass the success of ’212′, Azealia Banks has released the clip for the Dance Rap anthem ‘Liquorice‘.
Tuck in below…
Sick!
Classically Rankin but truthful to Banks, ‘Liquorice’ is one of a few videos out there with the power to stop a viewer in their tracks.
In short, it’s stunning-serving up enough beauty shots to up Azealia’s aesthetic stock, breathtaking when placed against the varying scenarios.
Though we’re not sure how well the cut will do Stateside, we’re sure the UK will eat it all up- especially if the clip picks up enough steam to land heavy rotation on the networks that matter.

@Pop
I know, i been a big fan since i first saw her 212 video in the begining of the year, and immediately looked her music up despite all the bad press she was getting from the urban blogs and audience. She is a treasure. And i hope she does get to icon status…hopefully she doesn’t sellout and let the pressure of fame get to her. But she dosen’t take crap from no one so i have great fate in her.
And i understand your anger at nicki because i used to be a big fan untill after Super Bass became big and that bitch went bonkers. I’m hoping though that with Azealia coming for them wigs that it will “inspire” her to stop the bullshit and just make good music.

Azealia is a rapper, not a pop star…the standards are way different. Look at Lil Kim and Foxy videos from the nineties…thats what these rap girls have to ascend to.
For Rihanna’s and Katy’s they have to different standards, Like Janet Jackson and Madonna videos. Its a whole different ball game. Just because Nicki Minaj went and became a “pop diva” doesn’t mean that is the goail forever other rap girl.
Usually i think you cute, and sometime you sound smart…but this comment shows how much rhitards are musically challenged.

I wish her and Iggy Azalea liked each other, they would make a sick ass song together. They both are bring new life to a dying field of music.

wow brilliant on every level. i was entertained thruout, she looks like she’s finally had a bath. her beauty is unmissable in the close ups. my only issue is that the songs sounds a bit too much like 212 and the referencing dint help matters there but brilliant nonetheless im really routing for this girl, she’s a breath of fresh air.
SN: id love for her and Rita Ora to do a collabo. i can see their styles meshing seamlessly

I said that a long time ago too…I think it was on the post about them getting Billboard Award nominations or something. There singing voices compliment each other as much as there unique style. But neither one of them can dance so that might be double akward. I’m ready for Bey and A. Banks to work together (my dream team)…though…Or Maybe A. Banks and Solange would be a better fit.lol

Quality over quantity. That’s what Banks has been doing. I appreciate the fact that she is taking her time and slowly releasing quality work. I am not a fan of hers (if she keeps this up and stops calling everybody a n***a and a b***h in her verses I just might become a fan) but I respect her grind.

A scene of her sitting in the house or barn or on the ground just chewing on a couple of pieces when of completed it. Nice.

Representing for the dark sistas, love it. I thought she looked busted in the 212 video with them nasty ass closeups of her mouth but she is giving me Naomi Campbell realness with this long straight weave.
Love the 90s house beat, it gives me some C&C music factory vibes. Makes me wanna vogue or some shit tbh. If she keeps putting out hot dance shit like this I will Stan her ass hard.
