Azealia Banks (born May 31, 1991) is an American rapper, singer, and songwriter. Raised in Harlem, New York, Banks pursued an interest in musical theatre at a young age, studying at the LaGuardia High School of Performing Arts before dropping out to focus on her musical career. In late 2008, she adopted the pseudonym "Miss Bank$", and began releasing music through MySpace, eventually being signed to XL Recordings at age 17.

Later signing to Interscope and Polydor Records, 2011 saw Banks rise in notability when she topped NME's Cool List for the year. In December 2011, the BBC announced that she had been nominated for the Sound of 2012, where she ultimately finished third. Her debut single, "212" featuring Lazy Jay, was released in December 2011, later becoming part of her debut extended play 1991, which was met with critical acclaim. She released her mixtape Fantasea in July 2012 and has since released the singles, "Yung Rapunxel," and "ATM Jam" in anticipation for her debut studio album Broke with Expensive Taste, which is currently OUT NOW B!TCHESSSSSSSSS

Wasn't the Wallace video supposed to come out this week or last week?

Is Fantasea any good?

 

fantasea > bwet

[boobtank 9,056]

What's with the new topic? LOL

She said it would come it in January, but I assume its not ready or something.

Fantasea is good as a first album type of deal. I think she surpassed with it BWET, which before it came out, I assumed it would be impossible.

I was told to by a mod, I knew it was coming eventually, big threads lag the site, they say.

This is low-key depressing :emma:

I'm actually upset that we had to start over. Maybe this is a sign that I need to leave this cult site.

Oh I seeeeeee, I'll be keeping an eye out for the thread when it's released then. Expectations are semi-high after Chasing Time :popcorn:
