YAY!!

And yeah will repost what i listened to here

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IQQeOoNrqDs

Ah brilliant...bit strange tbh that she hasnt really coincided her performance with her album release...but hype building will be incredible...should and could surpass Lana as the biggest debut album of 2012 what with it being released the time it is...Lana had sold 117,000 in her debut week...it is do-able...but i dont mind...BTD is dope and so will Bankses

Cannot wait to see what they do tbh!

Not telling my dad but I'm secretly hoping Gaga drops The Darkness in favour of Azealia, she's rumoured to open for a few dates which would be sick!!!

It is! And oh that's good she can do loads of summer promo to get everyone hyped

It's high time, Ms Banks had an appreciation thread! Her album, Broke with Expensive taste is confirmed to be out in September. In the meantime we are getting a 1991 EP, which was meant to be released last week but because Azealia has resigned to a new management, she's been allocated a bigger budget so she's going to re-record it all and make it sound of "higher quality!" This lady is worth it! I love 212, Liquorice, Barbie Bitch, F**k up the Fun...everything she's doing, I just love it all. Her Coachella set was incredible to watch on Youtube so I expect big things from this lady at the Big Weekend.

Azealia's been seen with Santigold, Red One and Missy Elliott, should be interesting to see what she's doing with those people. This girl is gonna snatch some wigs!

Yes, the EP to keep us busy and hopefully the full Liqorice video for the summer, then a 3rd single from Broke With Expensive Taste in Late August/September and then the long-awaited debut! Azealia has Lady Gaga's manager, she can't fail now!!!

The Liquorice video has been filmed/directed by Nicola Formichetti who has stylised Lady Gaga throughout her Born This Way era, especially during the heavy promo at the start.

It's inevitable that Azealia and Gaga will work together since they have the same manager. I would love her to open for Gaga, don't particularly like The Darkness, not my scene. Azealia is right up my street though and really out of the box. These two women would work wonders together and it would help her if Gaga was on a track on either Banks' debut, a re-release or Gaga's new album which will probably be out next year, knowing her!

Unless the lead singer gets back into the drugs I think we're stuck with em ah well, I imagine it'd be more of the American dates Azealia would do. A collab would be fantastic indeed, hopefully for Azealia's album as I feel it'd really give her a big break with the mainstream, also there's a Lana duet, OOOOHHHH ALL OUR FAVES!!!!!!!

Lana and Azealia alone will be huge! Two of the hottest new ladies on the block together will make for an unstoppable force!

We can't pre-order 1991 EP just yet because Azealia has only just recently told us to wait it out a bit longer for her to re-record it all with a higher quality sound. She said she won't make the low-rent hip hop sound anymore, but I think that's a shame personally because that sound is what got me into her, the old-school vibe combined with crazy Diplo beats, she had a unique sound there. Maybe she just means that she is still out of the box but just bigger, ballsier, louder! Whatever she does, 1991 will be out hopefully before the end of May! Cannot wait.
