11. Azealia Banks

Age: 24

Unfortunately, for most people, the only time they hear Azealia Banks’ name is when their timeline is flooded with news of something negative she said about someone else on Twitter. It’s not that she shouldn’t speak her mind, it’s just that she ends up talking over the music—which ought to speak for itself. As anyone who actually bothered to listen to her debut album, last year’s Broke With Expensive Taste, can tell you, the girl can flat out rap over just about anything and do it with flair and grace. Her excellent debut album is the main reason she’s on this list. Problem is, too many people were turned off by her outspoken antics to care that she put out a dope album. But if she can keep releasing quality music, it might not be too late to win over those fans who might find one day find bravery in her bravado. Until then, like Biggie said, “**** that beef ****, that **** is played out.” —IA

She is very talented, I agree.

Just repeat to yourself, "It's just a show. I should really just relax."

Meek at #4 and Vince Staples at #7? Questionable :crossed:

Azealia deserves this, though. I'd even argue putting her higher up. At least past Big Sean LOL.

I liked Summertime '06, it was a solid album. He's a good "pseudo/quasi/neo-Gangster" rapper, plus theres some softer moments like Lemme Know and Summertime 

I root for you. I love you. You, you, you, you.
