vendettas she wasn’t like this when she first came out. A lot of stuff has happened to her since this video alone! She wasn’t getting the credit she deserved I feel like it caused her to be very bullish.
This is seriously one of her "classics" in my opinion. The flow was everything, the simplicity of the beat, and the aesthetics! Sigh, please get more POSITIVE recognition Azealia.
you clearly know nada about the music business, she is wavering into the abyss,soon you wont be able 2 collect her tunes,she is a wader,wake the fuck up,and get in tune 2 the people ,who really care and share their time,via, SOUNDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
LEE VIEW Oh for sure. I actually love her attitude (so called). I think she's the realest in the game. They try to make us hate her cuz they are threatened by her. Just my humble opinion
This song is literally a craft of genius. She snatchd house music from the 90s and refurbished the old rap bits with a modern bk rap. This is the quality you would expect from an art school alumni very much like 2pac and she really delivered. Artists live mentally in two different logical and abstract worlds most of the time but sometimes the stress from one can make a person vacate residency for the other entirely. Artistic genius and sanity tread a fine line.
I feel that if "1991" was a full LP, promoted mainstream, and if Azealia had gotten her act together, then it would have been an iconic album because what rap artists you know right now would dare put house music and hip-hop together the way she did? A fresh and innovative sound that would have done great not only here,but all over Europe!
THANK YOU! I seriously feel like 1991 was so underrated. Like, her stuff on that EP was amazing. I just wish she stuck to this style rather than the stuff she has been putting out :(
well, first female house and techno artists from USA they all have a huge rap/hip hop background, dont forget house and techno are from US, and they born on the ghetto, side by side with rap and hip hop. this chick remember me the old times
This is 100% STRAIGHT MAN music. I refuse to let gay man take away this wonderful music genre away from me. Gay dudes, please go listen to some country music, that's your genre (you can keep Ted Nugent, Kid Rock and the rest of those stanky uncivilized Trumpian bastardos)....LOL.
Her flow is delicious. Her authenticity is intoxicating. Her production is out of this world. Her style is royal and elegantly nostalgic. This is dominating the world on another planet. Sending AB healing energy.
She is living evidence that quality requires intelligence. The lady is clearly educated musically. The influences she uses and the way she blends them and adds her voice to it is simply phenomenal. For me she is at the same level as Bjork and Missy Elliot. Creatively speaking she is exceptional, and on top of that she is ridiculously beautiful.
@@ecstasy3692 oh my god you don’t even know. In the past years she has done so much we can’t even defend her. Straight up racism and homophobia pretty much.
How is it possible that she’s not even recognized for all of these 2011-2014 bops that she gave us back then. Crazy crazyyyyyyy. She’s so ahead of her time.
Well, when you show the world just how much of an asshole you are again and again and again, people tend to reject anything you put out there pretty quick. Her being black has nothing to do with it; her genre is predominantly controlled by people of colour. She’s just an extremely trashy person.

As someone from New York, the Bronx specifically, I support all rappers repping our city. But honestly, Cardi B and Nicki Minaj could never match this. Azealia was just on a whole other wave, way ahead of her time. It's unfortunate that the scandals and controversy distract everyone from her music because the music is so good.

No one had done that this immaculately before Azealia. In addition, this video was inspired by a Crystal Waters video, with a modern twist that was executed flawlessly. Azealia most definitely was ahead of her time here. Very new, very innovative, very fresh, and incomparable. Thank you.
This is always what I say. Not defending the problematic things she has done but let’s be real if she were white and/or a man she would get so much more leniency and forgiveness than she does. I can’t bring myself to hate her when Chris Brown and Dr. Luke are still out here thriving.

She’s definitely problematic, but as you say, if she was a male rapper people would let it slide. Fascinating and fucked up how people’s perspectives change simply because she’s female. So many male rappers are much more problematic and controversial than her and have literally murdered people and done terrible things, but when azealia makes offensive comments it’s blown out of proportion.

it's her attitude & social media that's gotten in the way of her talent. bc let's face it, she could be the next thing if she hadn't burned so many bridges.
Unbreakable Flower Mariah Carey does not have a bad attitude. Everyone in the industry respects and loves Mariah Carey. Please find me someone who dislikes Mariah instead of Nicki or Eminem. Even the women Mariah shades still follow and love Mariah so stop.
BadGirlsLoveGames Oh I don't know Madonna, Christina Aguilera, Jennifer Lopez. They do respect her but it doesn't mean they like her. Nicki still respects Mariah for her legacy and hardowork but it doesn't mean she likes her.
She is. Low energy hipster music are just for hipsters. They aren't gonna appreciate this stuff even if their life depended on it. Azealia Banks has great stuff to people who can appreciate it
Yeah if the general public stopped being stupid. She needs mental help and a support system. In the meantime we need to give her recognition for being one of the best artists of our generation.
People have no idea how NY her music is. Her house hip hop sound is life. Too many of you are too stuck on that either pop hip hop or southern and west coast sounds. You just don't know anything about this.
After seeing Ms Banks ' scandalous ads in various vlogs, I came over to see what all the fuss was about. And omg so glad I did! I use to love me some *house* *music* back in the day. The fact that she can rap and sing over it and do it so well is amazing! TY Azealia for bringing that genre back and putting your own inspiration on it. You are *DOPE* Ms Thang!
@@brandonparker6696 did you get the reply I sent that started as even better? I love new subgenres for house music. She is taking it where I loved it and that is a little more unique and underground. I got the "Traphouse" from another one of her songs where she called it trap-house. I like RapHouse even better.
She's so filthy rich with talent I simply cannot summon the will to give a fuck about the controversies. I never did care for musician's personal lives anyway, just give me the music!! And Azaelia DELIVERS
Right this what Dr Dre mean when he said social media destroy the mystery of a artist cuz they way more loose to say anything when they recording themselves than getting interview by your traditional media platform
i usually get tired of songs after listening to them 20 times but ive probably had this on repeat for maybe 10 days now and have listended to it thousands of times. im in love
Remember this. Everyone used to say Lauryn hill was crazy back in the 90s. Why? Because she was saying truths people weren’t ready for. People don’t like when black women speak their minds. Everyone’s talking about how crazy she is so she is a legend. All I see is y’all taking about her. That’s what makes a legend. All geniuses are hated by society at first because they’re smarter than everyone around them

Why the fuck would you be killing chickens in a closet space? Then decide to show the world that you’ve done so many things in that closet? The fuck? HOW in any shape way or form is that racist???? Me practicing is Paganism and someone telling me “your god doesn’t exist!” Is racist now too right? Tf is your logic
i was in 5th grade (2012-2013) when i first discovered azealia and the chokehold this song had on me throughout middle school / my freshman year was insane. 12 year old song and it still sounds just as fresh as it did when it was released.
I came into this video not liking this artist because the drama I thought she was seeking only for attention, but honestly she was just speaking her mind and creates hip hop music greater than what people crave today. You just made a fan out of me, well deserved, underrated artist. I’m ashamed of not liking you before I even listened to your art.
“Speaking her mind” and telling people to kill themselves, being openly homophobic and xenophobic and REPEATEDLY shading and starting shit with other artists, who are much, much more successful and experienced and respected than she is, for any reason whatsoever, isn’t the same thing, though. She called Zayn Malik a “curry-scented bitch,” so she’s also racist and she has literally started beef with 14-year-olds before. If that’s who you wanna stan, though, go right ahead.
RihannaChristina while she is an amazing rapper, she is still absolute trash as a person and can not accept criticism from anyone who doesn’t think she’s the best rapper to ever grace the universe. If you’d like to support a publicly known homophobe and racist and thus further their platform you’re free to do so, but that makes you just as bad as her. Not sorry.
rapping to a house beat its just the future of this genre Shes already labeled as the modern day queen of house and not rap. So underrated but pitty that shes her own problem of growth.
I cant get over the fact that she made this 10 years ago and it sounds fresher than most of today's music o_O

Oh wow you're special and unique
Beyonce's "BREAK MY SOUL" took me back to this fine tune and reminded me that no one does it better than AZEALIA BANKS
You know you're good when people are even comparing Beyonce to you
Chile....
Same came here from that song
Forreal a BIG difference
@@ytuseracct or when your not mainstream and still huge and have been cancelled a million times
Literally ahead of her time, still sounds fresh today.
This is pure talent! Timeless, pure quality x
Still can’t believe she was 19 here
She born in 1991, she was 20 here almost 21
@@ryanfmatos. spill
She was whaaaat??
She hasn't aged at ALL holy shit
She was 20 almost 21
She seriously needs to do more tracks like this. No one else is doing hip hop that sounds like this.
More like Acid Jazz in some ways
Okay, true lets split the difference and say - -actually Acid House
She's rappin' here but that isn't hip-hop. O.K.., it's cool, sounds good, nice lyrics... etc., but undeniably isn't hip-hop ;)
TheMariothedog Shut up u dumb bum
It's more like house or some sort of 90's throw back with hip-hop
you can hear this song literally blossom like a flower 😩
YESSSS
righttttt
YES.
Right 🔥🔥
Perfect illustration
there's so much movement in this video it's literally so perfect for this song, i love it so much
I understand why people don’t like her. But I LOVE her music. Such a talented biiiishhhhhhh.
She’s just really problematic on twitter and instagram, which is such a shame bc she makes such good music 😭
shes such a shitty person but her music is just THAT good
Same
I promise you she wouldve been my most fav artist, but if only she just shut the hell up on twitter😭
She’s problematic as fuck💀
She had no idea how huge she could have been only if ...
Remember when yall said she was gonna replace Nicki Minaj😂LMAOO
@@SavierreMyles that was before we found out she was mentally unstable
@@twinkincarnate even if she wasn’t mentally unstable.. she still couldn’t replace her lol
@@SavierreMyles I still believe she could have
@@SavierreMyles she’s way better than nicki minaj
Listening to her music really has me confused on why she is still so underrated. This women is so damn gifted with her lyrics.
it's her attitude & social media that's gotten in the way of her talent. bc let's face it, she could be the next thing if she hadn't burned so many bridges.
*****
Mariah Carey has been shady and her attitude is quite bad too. But she still gains success. I don't really think that's the reason
*****
True. Now people will just go on Spotify or UA-cam.
Unbreakable Flower Mariah Carey does not have a bad attitude. Everyone in the industry respects and loves Mariah Carey. Please find me someone who dislikes Mariah instead of Nicki or Eminem. Even the women Mariah shades still follow and love Mariah so stop.
BadGirlsLoveGames
Oh I don't know Madonna, Christina Aguilera, Jennifer Lopez. They do respect her but it doesn't mean they like her. Nicki still respects Mariah for her legacy and hardowork but it doesn't mean she likes her.
This song genuinely changed my life
she’s amazing at runway music. she got that wap- wasted ass potential
Cardi and Meghan wish they were as talented but can only make basic ass songs lmao

This is so sad. She could literally be one of the best rappers 2019.
She is one of the best rappers in the 10's
She is. Low energy hipster music are just for hipsters. They aren't gonna appreciate this stuff even if their life depended on it. Azealia Banks has great stuff to people who can appreciate it
Ichigo Uzumaki her racist remarks are considered honest to you? how sad.
Yeah if the general public stopped being stupid. She needs mental help and a support system. In the meantime we need to give her recognition for being one of the best artists of our generation.
What a shame she was a nasty girl disrespecting queen LIZZO
People have no idea how NY her music is. Her house hip hop sound is life. Too many of you are too stuck on that either pop hip hop or southern and west coast sounds. You just don't know anything about this.
YESSSS!!! That is my whole argument!! This is pure NY sound and I am glad she resurrected it!
Nikki Sylvanus
but shes illuminati =( she even says it in the song
Surf Nyc stop.
Why do you post this on all her songs?
Nikki Sylvanus
Right. I feel like putting powder on the floor lol. This shit goes HARD.
Man this is so good. Second half on the song is such a vibe.
she was a head of her time with this record
yes!!
This song is trash
you entitled to your opinion. thanks tho will put it next to the ones that don't matter.feel free to comment again
I think she's more an arm of her time. Or maybe a toe.
+Travie Trav OMG bc you have no hairline
Why did she make a Twitter 😔😔😔
honestly like 😭
To sabotage herself 😭
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Exactly
Better said: why did she have to say what she said on twitter?
Azealia’s music got a certain charm to it. Beats are catchy af. And I like the fast rapping style of hers. lyrics are also entertaining to hear
Maylena Scott the fast rapping remind in the 90’s
Her singing voice is very appealing also, it has a velvety texture to it.
She is so underrated
Her charisma cannot be denied. She is a star and that is the way I choose to think of her period
this video and song are UNTOUCHABLE
facts
is her disease ridden cooch part of it? if so then yes..i would not touch it.
at least she gets laid and PAAAAAAID. You can't dis this talent. #nicetry
gtfo of here, hater. Ms. Banks' got talent, this song is a classic
i diss it while you ass kiss it...sheeittt..hate hate hate would mean that i loved loved loved it once...stupid
After seeing Ms Banks ' scandalous ads in various vlogs, I came over to see what all the fuss was about. And omg so glad I did! I use to love me some *house* *music* back in the day. The fact that she can rap and sing over it and do it so well is amazing! TY Azealia for bringing that genre back and putting your own inspiration on it. You are *DOPE* Ms Thang!
welcome to taste ;)
true dat!
It's called trap house. ×D
@@chasnfireflies317 Hip House
@@brandonparker6696 did you get the reply I sent that started as even better? I love new subgenres for house music. She is taking it where I loved it and that is a little more unique and underground. I got the "Traphouse" from another one of her songs where she called it trap-house. I like RapHouse even better.
Honestly WTF she is a QUEEN. 8 years later and still not sick of this song!
So good
Where is talent like this now?
This is what Beyoncé’s renaissance wish it was. Miss banks was doing hip
House ten years ago and it STILL sounds better.
When your talented fave is problematic lol
mAN, I SWEAR
LITERALLY
for real though. girl get it together lol
I agree
Truth lmfao
She's so fucking fine here, the style is gorgeous. Damn this whole MV, song and choreography.
Your best work!!
+HonkAbby amen to that first song i like of hers
she's beautiful and talented ppl just need to accept her attitude
So chic
This song even today is so iconic, so fresh, so creative. Azaelia just needs the right team behind her to catapult her into the mainstream
Real
She needs a better attitude
@@taofeeklawal8201 well in fact she needs therapy bcs she’s sick and it’s a fact
@@taofeeklawal8201 She needs an audience who can handle it. 🤚
Agreed I’m 56 I love her
I’m convinced this is why I love house music
She's like a weird combination between Aaliyah, Missy and Lil'Kim. but like a 2.0 version of that. o.O incredible flow and just hella talented.
+ House Music
ha. She might be a good singer but she doesn’t stand close to the legends you just compared her to.
T E A she sounds like she is good at rapping songs this well
This beast of a rapper spent a lot of time on Lauren Hill as well
No foxy Brown
This song slays me daily.
+ her little shoulder dance she does early on is so cute.
I agree. She's adorable, sexy, beautiful, creative, talented, all of that.
the fucking song. her looks. the editing. I just cant. It's SO GOOD.
But watch the video 100% Pure Love by Crystal Waters to see the inspiration ;)
She's so filthy rich with talent I simply cannot summon the will to give a fuck about the controversies. I never did care for musician's personal lives anyway, just give me the music!! And Azaelia DELIVERS
this ^^^ you’re never gonna meet the bitch so who gives af what type of shit they’re doing if you like the song then enjoy it
Her music is so amazing and so creative. I wish her scandals and self sabotage didn’t hinder her career.
Right this what Dr Dre mean when he said social media destroy the mystery of a artist cuz they way more loose to say anything when they recording themselves than getting interview by your traditional media platform
Remember when yall said she was gonna replace Nicki Minaj😂LMAOO
Expose Thy Truth a lot of people said that lol
Dre pushed a woman down a flight of stairs. Why the fuck you care about what he has to say?
same.
i usually get tired of songs after listening to them 20 times but ive probably had this on repeat for maybe 10 days now and have listended to it thousands of times. im in love
Whutt me too!! I didn't know her music was this good.
Repeat since 2012
true. you can listen to this years later and it still sounds as good as before
thegavin000 -yo, house music is like that....
not all.
I'm so happy to see everyone learning to love Azealia the way I've been loving her for years. Her time is really coming!!
She's finally free!
This is a truly genius track..it's so many things blended excellently...she is quantum.
God if she weren’t so self sabotaging and problematic, she would be a fucking LEGEND of this female rap era
Remember this. Everyone used to say Lauryn hill was crazy back in the 90s. Why? Because she was saying truths people weren’t ready for. People don’t like when black women speak their minds. Everyone’s talking about how crazy she is so she is a legend. All I see is y’all taking about her. That’s what makes a legend. All geniuses are hated by society at first because they’re smarter than everyone around them
@@anonymous-wk1nr Lauryn Hill be late to her own concerts. Lauryn Hill wasn’t killing chickens in her closet and sanding down the remains.
@@gumiho8352 you’re being so racist right now. There’s so many cultures that kill chickens whether it’s for food or for their religion. I’m a vegetarian and I don’t think it’s that big of a deal. Orthodox Jewish people swing chickens around their heads during Yom Kippur and I don’t see you coming for the whole Jewish community hun????
@@anonymous-wk1nr my love, KILLING CHICKENS IN A CLOSET. THIS IS NOT PART OF ANY RELIGION OR CULTURE. PERIOD. Her practicing “Brujeria” and showing the world WHERE she decides to do so and being looked at in any way is not racism, its uncomfortability. Why the fuck would you be killing chickens in a closet space? Then decide to show the world that you’ve done so many things in that closet? The fuck? HOW in any shape way or form is that racist???? Me practicing is Paganism and someone telling me “your god doesn’t exist!” Is racist now too right? Tf is your logic

Me too 🙋♀️
Sling Blade lie again.
i was in 5th grade (2012-2013) when i first discovered azealia and the chokehold this song had on me throughout middle school / my freshman year was insane. 12 year old song and it still sounds just as fresh as it did when it was released.
She was so ahead of the new trends
I came into this video not liking this artist because the drama I thought she was seeking only for attention, but honestly she was just speaking her mind and creates hip hop music greater than what people crave today. You just made a fan out of me, well deserved, underrated artist. I’m ashamed of not liking you before I even listened to your art.
good on you for giving her a change despite the overwhelming negative media narrative B)
“Speaking her mind” and telling people to kill themselves, being openly homophobic and xenophobic and REPEATEDLY shading and starting shit with other artists, who are much, much more successful and experienced and respected than she is, for any reason whatsoever, isn’t the same thing, though. She called Zayn Malik a “curry-scented bitch,” so she’s also racist and she has literally started beef with 14-year-olds before. If that’s who you wanna stan, though, go right ahead.
David Pavlas ok but she ATE this song and many, MANY other songs she did. So yes I would like to stan her music, thank you!
RihannaChristina while she is an amazing rapper, she is still absolute trash as a person and can not accept criticism from anyone who doesn’t think she’s the best rapper to ever grace the universe. If you’d like to support a publicly known homophobe and racist and thus further their platform you’re free to do so, but that makes you just as bad as her. Not sorry.
This was so ahead of it's time
Ugh her mind!
Lmfao this sounds like 90s house music.
Her whole aesthetic is 90's dance music.
Actually behind it's time. Just say it's amazing music goddamn
Anyone think of teyana taylors WTP?
ikr this is still so fresh (even tho its ‘old school’)
I've had a miserable day up until now - this song saved me. Thanks, Azealia genius Banks. You're a legend.
rapping to a house beat its just the future of this genre
Shes already labeled as the modern day queen of house and not rap.
So underrated but pitty that shes her own problem of growth.
You said it best.
She’s insanely talented but you know what they say: loose lips sink ships.
@@childofgod724 rappers in the uk have been rapping over house,garage,bassline,dnb for decades
Fin you beat me to this comment by three weeks! As a Londoner I’ve seen this done for the past 20 years. I still like Azealia’s music though ahaha
Hip house is an old genre. They’ve been making music like this since the 80’s. Hip house and freestyle...
who else thinks shes wayyyy ahead of the game
Maybe because it was in "1991"
