Since blazing into the mainstream with ‘212’, Azealia Banks has ensured her name is hot on the lips of many. Indeed, a potent potion of beef, virals, and visuals have made the New Yorker a staple in the minds of the masses.
Now, it seems, the budding star is ready to show and prove with new single ‘Yung Rapunxel’. Due out on March 26th, the Lil Internet produced cut is the “first” to be lifted from Banks’ hotly anticipated album debut ‘Broke With Expensive Taste’. So what better way to get folk talking than with a super out-there single cover.
Seemingly paying homage to her outspoken M.O, the edgy shot sees the femcee’s eyes replaced with her mouth. Cue the “illuminati” chants in, 3, 2…
NEGATIVE COMMENTS OR NOT. THIS IS DOPE. LOVE IT!
I have to disagree hive h**
chile that thing is not apart of the BEYHIVE
Ewwwwwwwwwww no thanks you shoulda kept that sweetie….. but she is working with satan aka gaga now so i guess shes bout to start doing some demonic s***
yeah ok, “monsta…” (i am side-eyeing the f*** outta you right now).
OH honey i hereby predict that you will have another twitter feud before this flop single drops :3
She is doing THEE absolute most. Girl. Have a seat. Something simple would’ve been approved. Like….-pops gum- -flips bang-
something simple like you “popping gum and flipping your bang”… you’re right, we all aspire to be a basic b**** like you. #NoMa’am!
so she biting my signature screaming face pose i see.
If This Is Who She Is And What She Likes Great, But Idk How It’ll Do Based On The Cover And Recent Blog/Twitter Beef/Wars. But Hey You Never Know. #ShadeNOShade
GURL NEXT, I was here for her at the start, I introduced her music to all my friends, that was when she released 1991 but now no uh uh, after all her beefs I just straight dont like her, and this cover? NO not original or innovative like she’d like to think, I’m actually looking forward to her low sales lol
smh… now you are the definition of a hater. why u gotta wish for someone’s demise? that’s just nuts. this internet thing is just really gettin played out.
What the f*** is this s***? This is the s*** she kept saying “wait till my album drop” for. Girl BYE
actually.. this. is. the. single. artwork…. how about you have a seat and actually “wait til the album drop”… umkay 😉
FLOP, DON’T CARE, ONLY HERE FOR NICKI.
it looks like you’re here in this post.
Girl what???? Go back to the drawing board h** this is a fail
WTF is this s*** ?
Plus it is so dark !
lol she’s to dark
i think that would be “too”…. #policingthehellouttabasicbitchesgrammar
@Monsterrebel The girl isn’t cute plus shes dark so she won’t go far
The poor thing looks like a possed bath salt addicted zombie
You did not just say that she is too dark. You must really look like a monsta….Ms.Rebel.
Very dark and upfront. Let’s hope the song delivers as well as the album!
Rubbish the b**** obviously wants to get people talking and get that cheap publicity wish bey or gaga will drop her ass off her album
I agree. Azealia seems very shady and two-faced. I don’t trust this girl. I can see her turning against them out of spite.
I’m getting Grace Jones vibes from this. But Grace would’ve actually looked fierce. Azealia just looks like she’s trying too hard to be edgy and in-your-face.
P.S. IIRC, her “hotly anticipated” album was supposed to come out LAST September. Then it got pushed back to February. Now I guess the actual release date is still in limbo.
Ok, when does YOUR album come out?
About 5 years before “Broke With A Big Mouth” will finally drop and flop.
This looks very creepy.
I guess…I mean, I get that she wants to reflect her “out there” persona. But, to me all I see is a photo with uninspired editing. Wheres the…”shock”?
No Azealia just no. I dragged my Fav earlier for beefing with the entire music industry. Now she’s gettin it for this too
Btw to the folks who dont know…Yung Reflopxel is a Screamo Track as described by Azealia herself.
Screamo obviously gets tons of radio play so you know this track is gonna slay..her career! hahah
wtf.
Nothing new, artists like Manu Chao already tried this type of artwork on their albums before.
who said it needed to be original… listen, sweet-heart, there is nothing new under the sun. if you recognize the reference, then good for you.
Listen hun’ I don’t give a f*ck of you are and what you think! So you can have a seat and find something else to do with you insignificant life!
These new artist of today are a mess honey wtf these b****** need to stay away from the bath salts & e-pills lawd help this generation of bafoons
did you really just try it… talking about new artist and drugs? e-pills? bath salts? b****, you were found in a bath.
Did you really just go there you disrespectful lil c*** ass n***** i can buy sell & trade you & your raggedy family from 6 feet under you don’t want it with me
bahaha…. you can buy, sell, and trade me (or my family , as you so eloquently put it). Well, I’d love to see that. Show me the receipts, Nippy 😉
Its dark, its disgusting, its intriguing at the same time.
Perfect now the song should serve along with it.
hey lovely lady how did you like mooriahs video for her lastest flop single almost to my retirement home
At this point the only thing folks are here for are the album sales numbers.
No one care about the artwork, no one care who she’s collaborating with, no one cares how many singles drop or many times her album gets pushed back.
Time to put your money where your mouth is AB, we’re all waiting for your numbers.
I project 4.5 k first week
Oh, and that is the ugliest artwork I’ve seen in a minute. I’m all for edgy, but blech. Look like the cover of a horror movie.
ugly skinny b****. shoulda been left in the abandoned crackhouse where she was found.
ewwwwww….i’m not here for the cover..
She should be the last person to clown anyone based on looks..
Not with that crooked ass middle part, No Ma’am!
Hell to the NAWL!This bish has got to be on some of that “ooooh weeee”!
omg this is disGUSTING! i really hate the fact that she had teamed up with Beyonce on a song. I wish it will all be scratched out of her album cuz azialia is an a-hole
I like it!
She is a b****, but so is almost every woman in the industry – Azealia just doesnt pretend to be anything else.
Im excited for this and definitely checking for her album.
Reminds me of Grace Jones n I love it!
Love her music.
I like the photo too, but I can’t help thinking about her running her mouth every time I look at it.
FOR ALL YOU SILLY FOOLS THAT DON’T KNOW NO BETTER SHE DID NOT STEAL THIS FROM ANYONE NEW OR CURRENT IN MUSIC. SHE GOT THIS IDEA FROM GRACE JONES- S**** TO THE RHYTHM COVER. WHEN I LOOK AT THE COVER I SEE A STATEMENT MORE OF: IM EATTING ALL B****** IN MY EYE SITE” NOTHING DARK. I LIKE IT VERY MUCH HER 1991 EP COVER WAS A HOMAGE TO GRACE JONES AND SO IS THIS COVER.
This gorilla, burnt h** is soooo irreverent and tacky till its not even funny!!! How can bey and gaga do a song with this demonic h**!! She probably lying, just about everything she says is a lie with an almost year past due album. Then she got the nerve to start twitter beefs and run her mouth, now this photo parody’s Grace Jones and copies the Queen’s screaming pose!!!!!! You demon h**!!!! Go somewhere and go help Krim Jung Li with her wanna be asian t***** face and her invisible career!!!!!!!
I’d say it’s an extremely appropriate single cover seeing as how the b**** constantly runs her mouth.
Hey admin, very informative blog post! Pleasee continue this awesome work..
