  3. monsterhive May 4, 2012

  4. Ain’t Playing Witchu May 4, 2012

  5. Mr Bradshaw May 4, 2012

    Don’t know who this is but she is winning me over by endorsing the queen so I’ll keep my eye out for her projects now.

    See how that works. U get with the Beyhive u can run the world lol.

  6. kingphoenix May 4, 2012

    Yes my Fave Femcee better show love to my ULTIMATE fave KingBey…They need to work together, and Beyonce need to take Azealia how to choose a lace front that is not $50 at your local beauty supply! I am here for these two beautiful talented women!

  7. The_Glam_Guru May 4, 2012

  8. MOBWIFE May 4, 2012

  10. skintightjeans May 4, 2012

    Never heard of her but if she recognizes Beyonce for the legend that she is then she’s obviously a smart woman.

  11. Nats May 4, 2012

    I can’t stand this chick Azealia, but she better bow down to the Queen. And kiss her freaking toes too!!! #Beyhive

  12. Beck May 4, 2012

    I understand the unrivaled impact the Beatles had on music, but honestly I can’t say I’m a fan of any of their work…I don’t know if I’ll ever quite understand the obsession. & Elvis deserves no credit. He was a bad singer who took everything from his image to his music from the uncredited black artists of his time. Azaelia is free to her own opinion, but calling Beyoncé the most impactful artist of the last 60 years is shortsighted and reflects a pretty limited knowledge of music history imo.

  13. KING TASHA May 4, 2012

    Well, s***, its true….next

  14. Dev May 4, 2012

    For someone who has made no significant contribute to music has got too much to say

  15. LAX May 4, 2012

    SHE GETS COOL POINTS FROM ME…….

  16. Virtuoso Intellect May 5, 2012

  17. MichaelAngelo May 5, 2012

    Nobody mentioned Michael. Things that make u say “hummm”

  18. Kyria May 5, 2012

    We Already know that 😀

  19. MISHKA May 5, 2012

    And there go some cool points for you Miss Banks!

  20. kimberly May 5, 2012

    Azelia baby, we have heard that for years upon years upon years from everyone. From artist, producers, directors, icons and legends, sister, husband, friend, songwriters and models, entrepreneurs and the list goes on. There is no denying that. The beehive got it.

  21. Carl May 5, 2012

    C’MON THROUGH AZEALIA! YESSS!!!

  22. PrettigurlrockD May 5, 2012

    I think everyone is on beyonce’s jock nowadays cuz she is better than a lot of industry women that can hardly sing and perform these days hence the fake vevo record breaker just recently. *cough*

    But to be honest, she isn’t as good of a singer as whitney and mariah was in their prime. I think bey can sing really good but a lot of the times it comes off as forced and shouted but I do gotta give her props for her perfect vocal control live. That’s an impressive quality.

  23. Virtuoso Intellect May 5, 2012

    @prettygurlrockd

    You’re right Mariah & Whitney were better in their prime but i dont see the point of pointing that out. Noone said Beyonce was the best singer ever but she sure as hell took care of her God-given instrument. She’s a messo-sopranoso so if maintains her great technique and avoids detrimental lifestyle choices. She’ll make the most of that voice for a very long time like the way Celine Dion treats her voice like a gift. Im so proud of Beyonce. She doesnt take her art for granted at all

  24. Some B**** May 5, 2012

    She cant go 5 seconds without mentioning someone famous for attention can she? SMH

  25. YOOSONDALOOSE May 5, 2012

    Well its true!

  26. NZ Bwoi May 5, 2012

    Banks is talented and 212 was so fresh, when i first heard it it was like a miniature big bang exploded into life opening up the hip hop genre. I had not felt that since ‘Enter the 36 chambers’.
    And she’s got crazy dope moves too yo

  27. NZ Bwoi May 5, 2012

    Beatles shmeatles…..
    What about Sister Rosetta Tharp!

  28. BLACK MADONNA May 5, 2012

    BEYONCE WOULD NEVER BE SEEN OR HEARD WITH THIS RATCHET ASS HOOD ROACH WIT A BUSTED ASS WEAVE.. SHE CAN STOP LOOKIN TO INHERIT SOMEONE ELSE’S STANS JUS BECAUSE U SAY U LIKE THEIR FAV. .BEYONCE ALREADY HAS BRIANNA PLAYING ON HER SITE SO WE KNOW WHAT FEMALE RAPPER B’S A FAN OF

  29. Jerquata May 5, 2012

    You all sound stupid as s***! Praising someone you know absolutely nothing about just because they like Beyonce! She really does have the dumbest stans in the universe!

  30. Nats May 5, 2012

  35. Ugh May 5, 2012

    All the dumbass Bey stans can’t even see through this……..WOW.

  36. Karla May 5, 2012

    Azealia showed her lack of musical knowledge by naming Beyonce! I love Bey but what has she done that changed music? We are talking the last 60years with the likes of Jimi Hendrix, Whitney Houson, Micheal Jackson ,The Beatles, people who broke down barriers and made unprecedented mark in the industry. What has Beyonce really done? honestly i can’t with the lack of knowledge displayed by this dumb Generation

  37. ajm265 May 5, 2012

    who the f*** is she i wish she would just go away… that is all

  38. army of queen aaliyah May 5, 2012

    I Think I Can Understand What She Is Saying Even Though It’s A Lil Exaggerated…..But If What She Has Said Is True Why Would She Sample Aaliyah On One Of Her Songs Instead Of Bey ?

  39. KatyCats (Bow to Slayty Perry) May 5, 2012

    So Beyfoon fans will follow her because she kissed their fave’s crusty ass? Pathetic

  40. Deena Jones’ wig May 5, 2012

    OK! I OFFICIALLY LIKE AZEALIA BANKS.

  41. Deena Jones’ wig May 5, 2012

    Someone really needs to get these Aaliyah stans in check. Yes Aaliyah died young, yes she had potential but let’s be honest shall we?

    Aaliyah was a flop. Her singles flopped, her album flopped, her voice flopped. Brandy, destiny’s child and most r/b acts at the time were whopping her ass in the sales and vocal department so please, let’s stop. Aaliyah would be as relevant as ashanti if she was still alive today. No shade but shade. Bye!

  42. fatu sankoh May 5, 2012

    you go miss banks you said it all about our bey i have always said it their is no one like our bey long live the queen

  43. army of queen aaliyah May 5, 2012

    Deena Jones Wig

    Gurl, You Tried It Hunny’ T ! Aaliyah And Flop Can’t Even Go In The Same Sentence ! Her Singles Were Released On The AIRPLAY Charts That’s Why They Charted In The Top 20 Or Lower Before It Was Released In A PHYSICAL FORM ! Her Albums Flopped ?! Um, Peaking At Number 18 And Selling 3 MILLION IN The U.S. Alone Is Not A Flop ! Then You Must Be DELUSIONAL To Speak Aaliyahs Voice Is A Flop ! KIIIII KIIIII Can You Take You Ass To YouTube And Look Up Queen Aaliyah Slay The National Anthem At 14 >>>>>>> Mary Js & Brandy’s Renedtions ! Her Head Voice Slayed And Runs In Head As Well , She Could Belt In The 5th Octave Outside Of The Studio Unlike FLOPANTI & Sing Notes In The Low Beastly 2nd Octave ! so Sit !

  44. JER May 5, 2012

    Who the f*** is Azalia Banks? I didn’t realize the opinion of a strangerbitch is held so high

  45. DIGGER BEY May 5, 2012

    So True Azealia, So True! Katy Kat…So ur mad nobody is praising Katy LMAO. People are though but its not anything u or Katy would like to hear LMMFAO. And i guess that mean THE BEYHIVE follow Katy, since she has praised THE QUEEN many times and called her a Living Legend. Try Again lol. I see Goatianna C**** are mad to because nobody is praising S**** LMMFAO ROFL HA HA HA HA HA

  46. nz boi May 5, 2012

    With comments like that jer im not suprised you don’t know who A.B is.

  47. NX127 – شبيح بيونسي May 6, 2012

    Excuse @KatyCats … She’s having a hard time taking the thought of KINGB having Grammys more than Katy Perry’s whole age..

    Maybe she’s still mad since she was caught giving head to Justin Bieber and Taylor Lautner in Katy Perry’s bedroom the night everybody from school (including Rabecca Black) were partying to celebrate Katy Perry’s 100909th #1 off the same damn album..

    @KatyCats

    ALL of Katy Perry’s NOTEBOOKS and PENCILS (combined) won’t be enough for me to school 9 y.o. f****** like your ass about KINGB’s 16 years of SLAYAGE..

    Katy Perry is nothing but one of a few lucky girls in the world who are honored to lick the sweat off KINGB’s ass crack after shooting a dance video..

    As for you…….. Nothing but an ass-sniffer for one of her “Love on Top” male back-up dancers.
