In all honesty, as talented as many of the year’s newbies are, Azealia Banks is one of the only acts this year with material strong enough to live up to her buzz.
The only ‘new’ Female Rapper to have her music become just as celebrated as her look and personality, next year marks the release of her debut album ‘Broke With Expensive Taste’, arriving courtesy of Jimmy Iovine‘s Interscope.
So, before the project’s launch, Banks sat down with the folk over at Hunger TV this summer for an eye opening interview on her childhood, education, creativity and standing in the industry.
Get into the recently released footage below…
That lipstick pattern thingy is NOT the business girl. Anyways, I completely agree that she is only female rapper in a while with material that lives up to her buzz. I am looking forward to her debut album, hopefully it has similar strong material that was on her mix-tapes.
i find it interesting how similar her story is to Nicki’s…I hope she makes it…she’s def the biggest female rapper of the new girls…hopefully the success of Nicki will keep her career going…even though she praises Nic one day, and throw shade the next, I see she’s not being Idle…at least she’s following Nicki’s example…doing more than just music and becoming well-rounded…and also not listening to the haters that are going to call her a sellout for doing dance music…Queen Latifah was the first mogul but she stopped rapping long before then…Nicki is gonna be the first to do it while still being a rapper…hopefully Banks can do it too
Eww, why does she have diamond h*****?
Paying homage to Rihanna.
that’s that caviar lipstick. s*** cost more then yo life. go kill yo’self.
I never used to like Azealia but she is becoming very professional lately & thats commendable…ALL THE BEST..
YAY! Stan for the Queen TGJ!!! Love this b**** but tired of her saying ‘like’ every two seconds.
SHE IS THE EFFIN BEST LOVE HER… ILLEST
Didn’t like her until now.
LOOOOL this interview cracked me up i love her ghetto ways “like uno” ahaha
Good luck to her, I hope by her album launch she finds a style that really suits her. Sometimes it feels like her team is throwing everything at the wall and seeing what sticks visually.
Ala that ‘Do it like a dude Jessie J look above but they should have kept the rhinestones because those little black circles…not the business.
She said “like..” about 40 thousand times.. -_-
and her buzz is dead
Like Nicki PFRR is dead, oh that’s right she’s re releasing it again to stay alive.
SHE SPOKE THE TRUTH AND SHE DEF LIVES UP TO THE HYPE – IT’S ALL IN HER MUSIC.
AZEALIA BANKS IS BEYOND KILLING IT RIGHT NOW. AND THAT’S COMING FROM A NICKI MINAJ FAN.
Oh yes, we can all agree on that. She’s a hardworker and is going to do well because of it. Iggy Azawannaberatchetlea needs to take notes.
Thanks for posting this Sam, I really like her.
What about angel haze isn’t she killing it right now?
HELL NO,,, ANGEL HAZE LOOKS LIKE AN ANGEL D***… and her rap skills are average. Azealia is unique…. Angel brings nothing new or fresh to the table…
DEAD
Im excited for her album. shes got 2 songs with gaga and has been in the studio with Kanye, thats impressive for a 21 year old girl who just debuted a year ago.
SEEMS TO HAVE ALOT MORE DEPTH THAN NICKI. ITS LIKE IF YOU TAKE THE WIG OFF OF NICKI WHO IS SHE? CAUSE SHES SO CAUGHT UP IN PLAYING THIS BARBIE CHARACTER. EVERYONE CANT RELATE TO THAT, AND ITS NOT GENUINE. ITS JUST A MONEY MACHINE. SHE BETTER WAKE UP….
You so pressed over the QUEEN
when will u late f*** realize
when u sell out ARENA STADIUMS in Europe u can do / be whoever u wanna be !
This basic bird ass b**** can take a few notes … PERIOD!
and I rather play a barbie & have my own MATTEL doll than be a ghetto d*** & stay BROKE, WASHED, & IRRELEVANT
“when u sell out ARENA STADIUMS in Europe u can do / be whoever u wanna be !”
You do know you’ve just proven their point right?
