Why, you ask?
Well, months before the release of her debut album ‘Broke With Expensive Taste‘, she has inked a deal with the esteemed folk over at Mac Cosmetics.
Full story below…
This September, Ms. Banks will release the ‘Yung Rapunxel‘ lipstick in partnership with the company, who have also teamed up with Lady GaGa, Cyndi Lauper and Nicki Minaj on similar ventures in the past.

WHO CARES IT’S NOT GOING TO SELL.
Stfu, not all lil Kim fans hate this girl, azealia making a big SPLASH!… I SEE WHY NICKI REVERTING BACK… MISSY, RYE RYE, & A.Banks about to DROP!… who knows maybe Kim too!
hahahaha
DID I SAY EVERYONE HATES HER? NO SO U STFU. IT’S NOT GOING TO SELL THE COLOR IS UGLY.
Who are you to say it’s not going to sell, I bet your a BLACK woman too. SAD
WELL YOU’RE WRONG I AM HISPANIC I’M NOT BEING RUDE BUT IT’S NOT GOING TO SELL WELL NO HATE NO SHADE JUST FACTS 1. NO ONE KNOWS WHO SHE IS AND SHE HASN’T DONE ANYTHING TO EVEN BE KNOWN 2. THE COLOR IS UGLY, IT’S NOTHING SPECIAL IT’S JUST MY OPINION.
The key word was OPINION…NO FACT, JUST WORD IT DIFFERENT NEXT TIME#THATSALL
I CARE JUST GO TO HELL!
finally! a female rapper following Nicki Minaj…it’s not just about the Music! you have to become a brand! who’s the most successful female rapper? nope not Lil Kim (not even close actually)…it’s Queen Latifah…rapping, singing, broadway, acting, directing, covergirl, etc…you have to be a beast to be a legend…good job Azealia…all you gotta do now is learn how to keep ya mouth shut
Goodness i have told all of you that $$$$$
don’t care who owns it, it will go where no
other one will dare to go. Let her make her
some and to those who are “Crying Wolf”
knock yo lames asses all the way Out.
They don’t want King Latifah
Wow! The company’s always chase hype. This gurl hasn’t done anything that requires endorsements. I would rather a Tony Braxton, Memory of Whitney, Mariah or some other non rap “celeb” lipstick
Mobile website needs fixing, page 2 first headline is always “chris brown bottled” or w.e
That picture is everything.
yasss she is giving us bajan C*** to the core….Yaaassssss ma’am
I LOOOOVE that colour. Very gothic but versatile enough to suit any style. Certainly better than Nicki’s stupid Hello Kitty/Polly Pocket bubble-yum hue for 8 year olds trynna look like Bratz Dolls.
Get.
It.
U mean the QUEEN color that sold out twice??? Not here for your delusions, f*** no one knows this local fLOP.. don’t her album drop next month??? DEAD
Dear God!..she’s ugly.

i’m incredibly adorable.
I ALWAYS KNEW U WERE A RACIST C*** NOBODY LIKE U HERE NOW GO WORSHIP THAT CRACKHEAD FROM NIRVANA AND THAT FOSSIL MADONNA
I always knew you love me.
Well if your gravi is any indication of what you look like…

Damn b****** stay made, b**** let up for some air you tired h**…REST
She looks like a vampire !
Co-sign
Yessssss Azealia Banks!!!!!! Remember that she’s getting all these accomplishments on her OWN, not with a bunch of male rappers besides her or a big team or features on tracks or better yet AN ALBUM!!!! Yessss Azelia imagine the possibilities and she hasn’t even drop her ALBUM YET OR A MAJOR MAJOR HIT!!! Good job KUDOS!!!!
are you that stupid what do you mean banks is doing all this BY HER SELF,you hate nicki that much that you have to make up sh-t all the time to try to tear her down and put someone else up,and for you,er info nicki did must of the things she is doing way before her first album…….you,er bias as was talking sh-t about nicki that she is copying others when her lipstick line came out,but now banks is doing it you are getting your p-sy wet[gratz to banks though no shade]you f-cking bias piece of sh-t…what are you talking about u finally see a rapper doing something everything in your comment is a nicki basing you are so sad….if u think banks is doing her alone you are d-mbber than i gave you cred for.
You’re obviously pressed about A.B. for some reason. Could it be that Nicki is no longer a RAPPER and a newer, younger, more creative girl is taking her shine? Or is that Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded is barely gold after almost 5 months? Or how about the face that she’s on a decline after her 2nd album?
You mad. LOL
Ignore this ugly a*** f*** look at his avatar some ugly broke N***** from Tumblr… LOL
NICKI>>> that’s why you uggs bring her up on a constant basis
American Idol >> This chalky black lipstick
Congrats Azealia! The color is all that – great for fall & she looks great in that photo.
I agree! i’m white, but i think that shade will still be the business when i wear it lol…but it will definitely look amazing on darker skinned ladies….i’ve never seen lipstick look more gorgeous then when Azealia wears it. She has perfect lips~
Wow she’s getting that recognition with out undeserved hype and and huge act co signing her. I think she is going to be to Nikki what foxy was to Kim. You can say what you want but she is certainly winning.
She would have to sell some records to be ANYONE’s competition… Nicki is 29 she not gonna beef w/ no Local FLOP 20 year old.. SMH
nicki minaj was NOT the first female rapper to have an Lipstick with MAC some of you need to get your facts right.. smdh a damn shame.. anyway congrats to Azealia Banks she is doing her thing. All its going to take is ONE high profile celebrity to rock this color … well you know the rest.. the fashion world really does love this chic.
That’s my favorite color to rock during the Autumn and Winter.
The reason why azealia is getting attention is because she is hugely, hugely talented! Even her haters say “she needs to watch her attitude and cuss less, but she got bars”. It’s hard to deny. She isn’t all about a blonde ponytail or an a$$ inflated with a bike pump. We all know that for a girl her complexion, no matter how beautiful, if she wasn’t a genuine big talent, nobody would be checking for her. She got where she is on talent. She’s getting covers and fashion deals because she has charisma and that star quality
@Cecily, see you’ve told the truth & people cannot take it.
Ladies & Gentlemen, the world is STILL very much biased against people who have a darker skin tone, regardless of how beautiful they are. Sorry to stick a fork in your so-called “post racial” ideology.
The fact is A B is beautiful but she has gotten where she is b/c she is talented. She is fresh, innovative and, plainly, dope.
If you can’t take her, you’re probably too used to championing the lessors who are light-skinned and untalented but are given the time of day b/c they are read as “beautiful.” Yawn.
Yeah, I said it….WHAT ? !
No one cares ugly… so we supposed to applaud her cuz she black like celie from color purple????
NICKI IS WINNING!!!
dis FAF is a b****** racist C***! u stan for nicki like she ur mama! SIT THA F*** DOWN! every tin nick doing kimmy blank been done dat already,mac,platinum records,number 1 song in 12 countries(lady mama lade) candies endorsement,ice berg jeans,versace,baby phat,marc jacorbs!!! and so more! so shut the f*** up!
Why is a supposedly urban blog visited daily by white supremacists? Shouldn’t you be on rush limbaughs blog or something?
