Azealia Banks


Bad ass.

Want to listen to someone that has a bit of oomph about them? Than Azealia Banks is your answer.

Azealia Banks is an American rapper and singer from New York. Despite being around in 2009, Azealia only got her big break in 2011 when she was nominated for NMEs "Cool List."

Despite her musical influences being Beyonce and Aaliyah, Azealia demonstrates her own style by combining singing with rap.

To date Azealia Banks has released a mix tape "Fantasea" (2011), and an EP "1991" (2012). She recently announced she will be releasing her debut album "Broke with Expensive Taste" in February 2013, something I can't wait to check out.

If you can get past the swearing, and love a bit of attitude and rap then this is definitely an artist for you.   Hugely involved with the crowd, its no shock to find the audience singing and dancing around in a frenzy during her entire performance.

Tour Dates 
11th July. T in the Park - Kinross
