Beat me to it. It'll go live tomorrow on Spotify allegedly!
I was sure this album was destined to be a myth and never to see the light of day in our lifetime:o
I don't think anyone on Team Banks thinks this will be a huge success, it's more about just getting it out there, it's so long overdue. It's already top 10 on US iTunes so well done to her, no promotion, no hit single, virtually all hype and goodwill towards her gone. Fortunately it's a fantastic album aswell.
True
Well at least it is out
I am listening to it now.
She royally mucked it up for herself but has bags of talent so I hope she can gain success.

People that are moaning about her personality need to just put it behind them and give the album a chance because it's probably one of the best this year. I suspect this will pop up on a lot of end of year lists.
New York Post gave it 3/4: http://nypost.com/2014/11/07/was-azealia-banks-new-album-worth-the-wait/
Sorry for being off topic, i'm not starting on you i'm just curious to know what you thought the last great 'rap' debut was?
I'm intrigued to see if you're right. Angel Haze did great.
Well I loved 'Dirty Gold' but I believe her mixtapes were better than the album. The album wasn't as cohesive as her previous work.
I think Kendrick Lamar's debut is a strong contender, whilst I also feel like Childish Gambino's "Because The Internet" could also be a strong recent debut.
Bit harsh
I thought the album was a load of noise though, and even when i hear something i am not fond of, i can still appreciate and still the good sides of it. I couldn't on this album. May be the second worst album i have heard this year.
What's the worst album?
I agree, it's been abit of a drab year in terms of Pop releases but this is a really refreshing, cohesive, well thought out album in my opinion. It's getting strong reviews across the board from fans & critics alike, the commercial success has been decent to, surprised to see it still hanging around inside the top 4 on US iTunes. Also nice to see Lana Del Rey showing support for Azealia.
The Chasing Time video is coming next week aswell: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sTdLUSZBceE
Aretha Franklin sings the great diva classics
I listened to the previews on iTunes but no way will I download a whole album with that ghastly sound quality
I also want a physical
