After literally years of waiting, Miss Azealia Banks (not to be confused with Iggy Azalea) has finally released her debut album. Her mixtapes so far have been pretty proper – heavy beats, heavier raps. Earlier this year, she left Universal Music Group, and became mysteriously quiet on Instagram. To be honest, so-called fans were getting pretty rude – under any post of hers, there would be a ton of comments: “give us an album” / “where’s the album”. Here ya go haters / lovers / fans / mermaids! Azealia shocked everyone with this album drop yesterday. And you’ll be happy to know that classics (and my favorites) 212, Luxury and Yung Rapunxel are on the track list, but I have to say Banks brings the fire with very varied genres of music, not just rap – there’s vocal chill nu disco, house-y beats, and just all around good vibes man. I dunno guys, Nicki Minaj better look out – this young thing from New York is about to make some waves. Support good talent fam! Cop your copy on iTunes now, and give it a list on Spotify here.
