Liquorice too. She does a lot of fighting with people on social media...what she needs to be doing is less talky, more shakey hiney and singy...Seems to be about the only thing she's good for, and if she's going to be so proud of it, I can't possibly be THAT harsh.

2:16 is straight up laced with crack!!!! Let’s get one thing straight: she still has ‘it.’ I remember seeing her in LA years ago, and just her breathwork alone was mind-blowing. The atmosphere was a damn stampede ; it was the kind of concert where you wouldn’t necessarily want your friends to know you’re there. When she finally hit the stage, the auditorium literally vibrated; even bitches serving beer were concerned asf lol She was fashionably late, of course, but delivered a powerhouse performance with just one outfit and no dancers. When she pulled out that megaphone, I knew she’s stayed true to her artistry. She has a strong following, selling out shows from LA to Sydney (this year) I used to separate an artist’s private life from their art, but nowadays, it’s hard to ignore the problematic aspects but because now in general people associate you are okay with their behavior if you listen to them. Still, you can’t deny her talent. She knows how to keep us hooked, dropping a song here and there to keep that coin rolling in her purse, i will forever be a fan lol

It's not reggae, it's new york slang which is influenced by Caribbean accent and culture as in London which is why people thought Banks is British. Her voice style here is classic House mixed with rap, and neo soul. Back in the 90s, black vocals over House edm like La Bouche "Wanna Be My Lover" Crystal Waters "Gypsy" Mark "Return of the Mac" Fatboy Slim "Song for Shelter" and Haddaway "What Is Love" was the thing and she radiates that throwback NYC culture, juxtaposed with modern hip hop.

The reason the general public hasn't embraced Azealia is cuz she brings a brash sense honesty and rudeness that people just can't get down with. It's fun and confident.

While I agree with your overall point, Ryan, I do think she'd get way less flak, and possibly be embraced by the mainstream a la Kanye, if she were a man. She's a genius, but the American public prefers their women a lot more comatose.

This chick is the real deal, I think. Like Bjork, Jack White, Brian Eno, Q-tip. She's bat shit crazy and incredibly creative. She's ahead of her time and making a new sub genre of hip-hop. She has said some stupid sh*t but who cares. Her music contribution is still incredibly important. The thing with Iggy is pointless, it's not iggys fault she was nominated for a Grammy (even though A. Banks is clearly the better artist). Kanye is a genius mixer but he can't spit like Jay z or this chick...In fact he's pretty terrible at verse. I do love a lot of his tracks, though.
