Eurotrash 1,621 Posted October 29, 2021 Author Share Posted October 29, 2021 Tarantula is a song by Azealia Banks. It is a response to Grimes' song “100 Percent Tragedy”, which Grimes described as a song about “defeating Azealia Banks after she tried to destroy my life”. “Tarantula” is produced by Owwwls and features a hard club beat. Azealia Banks' side of the story is that she was left alone waiting at Elon Musk’s house for days and Grimes never showed up; Banks also accused Musk of telling her not to bring her boyfriend to Los Angeles with her, promting Banks to opine that “it was probably some weird threesome sex **** to begin with anyway”, noting that Grimes was telling Banks that Musk thought she was hot. Some time after, Banks wrote an apology letter to Musk where she explained that Grimes had let Banks in on “personal information” about Musk that made her feel “uncomfortable”. In 2019, Azealia Banks posted some texts between her and Grimes on her Instagram story which would go on to become infamous, including somewhere Banks says Grimes “smell[s] like a roll of nickels” and Banks saying “Elon wants this fat ***” in retort to Grimes calling her fat. The drama was revived at the end of June 2021 when Grimes played a DJ set on her Discord server which featured several yet-unreleased songs, including one called “100 Percent Tragedy”, which ignited controvesy when Grimes described it as being a song about “defeating Azealia Banks after she tried to destroy my life”; naturally, Azealia Banks instantly responded with several Instagram story posts calling the song a “bootleg INNA song”. Shortly after, Grimes teased Azealia Banks by bringing up the 2018 drama again with a tweet saying, “Even if I did smell like a roll of nickels, is that bad?”. Azealia Banks took the song as a threat against her personal safety, posting on Instagram that she doesn’t “take well to Grimes wishing tragedy upon me”, and asked “what do you do when you wake up with this tarantula in your baby’s bed Claire?”, leading into this song. Produced with long-time collaborator Owwwls who has been working with Azealia Banks since her earliest days, producing several early songs such as “Atlantis” and “Us”, a short demo of “Tarantula” was posted on Instagram on August 15, 2021, and then the full demo was uploaded to SoundCloud on September 5, 2021. Nevertheless, once Grimes separated from Elon Musk, Azealia expressed that she’d be happy to work with Grimes again “now that apartheid Clyde is out of the way”. Wings Of A Butterfly is specifically a trans girl anthem. Azealia Banks wrote this song about her own personal metamorphosis. From darkness to light and from ignorance to enlightenment: a journey to self-love. The writing process was deeply emotional and made Azealia realize that coming into her own as a woman is akin to a caterpillar’s journey to becoming a butterfly: the uncertainty and loneliness of the cocoon stage, then the marvel of your own wings in flight. via Genius Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
