What kind of childhood does a person have to become an enigma like the Azealia Banks? Born Azealia Amanda Banks on the 31 May in 1991, life was never easy for Azealia and perhaps that shaped her to thrive in chaos. Growing up in Harlem NYC, she was the youngest of 3 sisters, one of them being 8 years older than her and the oldest being 13 years older. Before her life had even really started, her father died of pancreatic cancer when she was only 2 years old, an event that would traumatise her mother, worsening her already very fragile mental health and ensuring that the Banks household would be one full of chaos and unhappiness. But even before Azealia came into the world, the Banks household was never a happy one.

That explains a lot. I’m not excusing the worst of her behavior but it really adds context as to why she is the way she is. I hope she finds what makes her happy.
Wish her the best too, Idk feel like the current relationship she has with her fans is good for now but hope she can be truly at peace one day
Not only what she had to deal with growing up, but also being a dark skin Black woman in the U.S., in the music industry. She’s got everything and everyone against her
It always seemed pretty obvious to me that she was dealing with a lot of damage. It’s a shame that she lashes out at people in a way that is perpetuating the cycle of abuse, but it takes a ton of insight and bravery to recognize that behavior in yourself and actively try to change it. It also usually takes therapy. I don’t know if she’s ever sought help, but I’m sure it would do her a world of good. Her musical talent is just too great to let her own demons continue to sabotage her career.
she’s really never said or done anything especially cruel. I wish ppl would see others as multifaceted ho’s instead of viewing ppl as good and bad.
@Clam Clam I’m saying exactly what ur saying
one thing’s for sure: she is 100% in her own lane in music
Omg hi damon!!
Yo Damon
Wow, we really do have the same viewing habits 😭
love how all of us watch the same videos!
My boy has some good taste I see 👀
Wow. So when she freaked out about being called ugly on Wildin out it was bc it was a childhood trauma trigger.
No it was more from experiences of colorism
This! glad someone else had the ah-hah moment too!!
@@itsionab3012 the colorisim came from her mom, she was definitely triggered on Wild ‘n out
Why did she even go on the show we all know they’ll roast you
@@uswish. her management at the time told her it would be good promotion, she even told them that she didn’t think it was a good idea lol ironically management said that it would help with cleaning up her image.....
She made a tiktok just less than a day ago and shes already made a statement on there asking people to stop telling her to 'fight with X tiktoker' as shes trying to better herself and feels no one takes he mental health seriously and uses it for laughs (100% true) and made a lighthearted joke about it. I hope she means it she is extremely talented and has been through a lot I wish people would stop making her issues into a joke when shes clearly in pain. Same with Kanye.
Especially with black people like kanye west is a meme to people but he's talented and he needs help
@@flowyelyah8815 Exactly!! Wanted to add that but my comment was getting long already, black celebrities are always the ones having their mental health issues made into jokes or not taken seriously!!
Sadly she’s been saying this for years. Even did counseling but always goes back to bad habits. She is still one of my favorite artists
Some people need to listen to Soda
i wish she wasn't transphobic 😐 i would feel bad but that's where she lost my sympathy
Honestly azalea reminds me of Kanye west. I know she will put out great works. And she will be appreciated at least by the majority of gen z. She’s is talented and a lyricist a vocalist and a rapper. She is wow
two Geminis with bipolar I lol
The diference between both is that cancel culture seems to be harsher on women than with men.
So tru, really hope that she can put something great out this summer
@@leila1757 girl no one likes kanye west on gen z either hell gen z cancelled eminem lmfao its not our fault theyre problematic
@@adriancrespo1575 and yet he still has backing. He still has amazing musicians and artists working with him. There's still people who see him more as talent then as crazy. Whereas Azelia is seen as more crazy then talented ever since she accused a powerful white man of spitting on her, manhandling her, and calling her the n word. Coincidence? Hmm.
She just needs a little guidance. She isn’t even as “far off” as people say she is. People also need to stop looking at her like a car wreck or a zoo exhibit. She’s a human being who needs to be helped like anyone else from time to time.
thing is whenever we try to tell her to get help she refuses it… so it’s fair and well that she doesn’t want it.
Literally she’s just as humane as us! But her behaviour is often layered and has deep meaning... She just needs help. 💖
she's gotta SEEK the guidance. humility is the key and no one can't force that in anyone.
@@alephmale3171 this has nothing to do with religious belief and a religious idea of “good” really. Everyone can benefit from talking to a therapist, especially with the times we are going through. Finding a good therapist who doesn’t exploit you is also a problem in itself, but honestly I think some of the things she says and posts is impulsive and it may stem from her childhood.
Umm we just gonna forget about her sacrificing Chickens in her closet and her telling another person of colour to go bleach their skin ?!?! The list is endless people making excuses for her like why your not helping the situation are you ?! Yeah she’s had a traumatic childhood but please don’t excuse it for her disgusting behaviour 🙄 I like her music but sadly no one takes her seriously because of her toxic actions and behaviour 🤷♀️
Remembering when she said that diplo preyed on her and exploited her sexually when she was still a teenager
Yessss
I never knew about this at all actually, but it's terrible that it happened to her. I feel like it's much more common in the music industry than we believe :/
Very much so!
@@shelby9510 *young black girls.
MIA had a similar abusive experience with Diplo so it’s plausible
idc what anyone says about this woman, she’s a survivor and i love her strength and talent
!!!!!!! Been through a lot, new york classic
@Natalie girl shut up.. Azelia goes for the jugular and she keeps that same energy with EVERYBODY regardless of who you are.
@@jacubtscorpio5084 How bout you shut up and take several seats. Just because someone had a shitty life experience does not give them an excuse to be terrible to other people
@@SpiritHunterDSG Being literally abused and neglected can cause trauma, which affects your personality. Of course shes terrible to other people its a literal result of trauma and anger bottled up from her childhood you dumb twat.
@Natalie how is she islamiphobic...and you do know abuse as a child changes personality right...
wait. this needs a part 2 tf. the most interesting part of her story happens after she got her universal deal. when the gp became aware of her.
true i was also curious what was her first controversy.
Was going to do a video covering every single feud ever XD
@@POPICANA and I will watch every single one of them haha
@@POPICANA please do!! I think she’s an interesting person
@@POPICANA That video would be ICONIC is it would be problematic js
in my opinion, broke with expensive taste is one of the best albums of the 2010s and definitely top three for female rappers in the 2000s to 2021. She’s a genius musician.
Too bad she only gets money from that album thru streams on UA-cam and music platforms
as someone who grew up being abused, i see the hurt that she carries with her. people are so eager to dismiss and villainize black women, when any other type of person would be able to do the things she does with little backlash. seriously. she makes fucking amazing art and that's why i love her.
What an absolute joke. She is literally getting away with being a racist simply and only because of the fact that she is black. A white woman or a man could never dehumanize non white people by calling someone a sand-ni**er, monkey, pig, cavebeast, and say a certan race smell or dont wash and mention their skin color or facial features in a negative way ect. Thats what Azealia did.
@@florivalentina3400 stfu because white people literally get away with racism all the time
i really hope she can better herself. as someone who is part of the LGBTQ+ community, although i will not forgive her any time soon i really hope she does get better. as for the other feuds she's in, i hope she can make it better and try to make it up to the people, countries, etc she's fought with. example for countries, if they're in any bad places she can donate to charities for those bad things. for people, this really depends. first things first she needs to apologise. then, well let's see how it would go yk?
it’s not about race. she is just a bad person to other people. her upbringing may be a REASON as to she is the way she is but it isn’t and never will be an EXCUSE to be an asshole…. if you’re a shitty person you’re gonna be painted in a shitty light. do black women have it harder? yes ofc nobody is knocking that but…. we do need to realize that she is very problematic and that does play a factor in her reputation
@@melato7289 so should everyone be able to get away with racism or should everyone be held accountable? there’s no excuse either way to be racist “white people get away with it all the time” still doesn’t legitimize anything
to this day, she always hypes up 212 and i remember a couple months ago, some hater said, “why do you keep bringing up an old song of yours? they old asf” but like you mentioned in the video; it was her first break through. It was her escape to a good life and getting the recognition her deserves. Look I am NOT defending her transphobic, homophobic or xenophobic comments at all, but she has had many traumas she had to deal with. This isn’t excuses, only reasons for her behavior. I can tell she tries her best to improve and I would say that she is improving. Mental health isn’t a straight line upward, its a bumpy loop that goes forward. I hope she gets back into the grind. I hope she remembers that these haters got nothing on her and she can improve at any age.
True talent never gets old! I'm sure even when she's old, still be coming out with great stuff. I just wish she finds true peace first
Im gay and she 100 right bout us and lgbt lol😂 not all but yeaaaah
shes opened up about her sexuality and mentioned she was bi. gay people make homophobic jokes all the time people r just too sensitive about that.
U can make a comment about this 212 situation without "i am NOT defending xyz". Its so obvious you werent defending those things. Your initial comments got nothing to do with xyz things u dont defend. This is an encouraging comment btw. Say what you want with ur confidence.
Damn the twitter bubble got people having to explain themselves when not nessassary.
PREACH MAN! She deserves peace and hope! She’s really troubled in her life more than everyone rn. She’s literally looked down upon edgy weird kids with no life but to hate. She’s a legend, but still healing her scars! 💖👑✨
Azealia’s messiness is clearly more driven by bitterness, trauma and mental health struggles than it is by legit hate. Doesn’t really excuse it though, considering it still impacts others. And even when she has some decipherable and uncomfortable points, it’s weighed down by vitriol. I do love her swag. And it’s evident that many artists respect her work and/or have been influenced by her. She’s just become too much of a pariah for them to acknowledge her. While “Broke With Expensive Taste” might be the best female hip-hop album ever, even with its flaws.
Everyone knows this
no one is saying it "excuses" anything. triggered much? it's a bio on her
@@tylax1987 Um, triggered by what exactly? I’m an Azealia fan and am happy people are still appreciating and discovering her music. My comment is a reaction to a lot of comments here as well as the general discourse around Azealia. And yes, part of the video is reasoning behind her behaviors without directly going there.
I’m so late , but as a Gemini. Super respectful and super talented. But when I tell people about themselves they don’t like me anymore. Like people will point out all my flaws. But when it’s my turn. They don’t want to be friends anymore. It’s just a Gemini thing. People really try to play us like we aren’t the inspiration. Like we can’t do it all !
“...and so hyper-intelligent, but she’s a teenager from Harlem.”
What a micro aggression! Intelligence could be found anywhere. Great research on her backstory. I enjoyed this video.
i think they meant she went through trauma from living in an area like harlem
@@nannaeam does that excuse her racism
"Micro aggression" lmao
@@florivalentina3400 whose?
@@florivalentina3400 her racism towards who exactly?
i love her. she probably had a terribly hard time growing up and is likely to have been preyed upon by exploitative men since her early teens (so she has plenty of reasons to be confused and angry) but she still shines.
LOVE HER!!!!!!!! Hope she can find peace and people can be more understanding about her, she is a real unique individual hope peeps see that
She became a bigot because she was exposed to bigots and they became bigots because they were exposed to bigots...basically everyone has reasons for doing the shit they do. Basic psychology ur right.
No matter what AZB says, does, or thinks, I will never discredit her talent and ability. It just breaks my heart that the drama blacklisted her from being one of the top rappers of the 2010s on paper. Everyone can feel her impact, and one day the world will pay their respects.
YES, she would’ve been huge if she just kept some things to herself
It drives me crazy to see comments on the 212 video saying things like "She could have been great but she ruined herself, now no one will recognize how ahead of the times this was" or things similar.
If we're all still talking about 212 and have never stopped revisiting it over the entire last decade.....she never faded into obscurity or became irrelevant.
People have just continually refused to give her her flowers and are hellbent on "punishing" her for being problematic
@@ectoplastiic as an artist her music is great. She honestly gave me a song I loved on first listen as a kid and 212 till this day is on my playlist. However, her social media outbursts and comments and remarks have effected and hurt me when I have come across them and got me very upset and effected my mental health. I was struggling with a lot of things in life growing up, whether it is similar to hers or not, I wouldn’t ever say anything bitter, spiteful or go as far as she has regardless of trauma. Sadly trauma isn’t an free pass or excuse to do what she has done. So yeh. She is an artist who fucked herself over and people are very much valid to feel hurt by her when she hurts millions of people with her words. She’s an artist, it’s her decision to become one and many responsibilities come with that title, it’s just a concept of growing up and realising her actions have consequences.
Childhood trauma, her abusive mother mixed with frustrations of rejection in the acting industry has her really acting out like that. I hope she gets help and gets better because she has huge potential.
Azealia Banks' music oozes personality like no other. How she's able to pick and choose productions and sounds and compliment them with her lyrics to really get you into the vast variety of moods and minds that she envisions for the songs is beyond amazing. Her ability to switch rhyme schemes at the drop of a hat and almost build up/break down the tempo of a song through the same is amazing. She obviously has issues on a personal front that have been unresolved but that doesn't take away from the fact that she is an amazing artist.
She didn't eat her dead cat. The cat was burried and she took it out of the ground, boiled the bones so they could be clean and kept it in her house cuz, according to her spirituality, it'll bring her luck.
Again, you're acting brand new. Some 30 seconds research could help.
She’s really the queen of the internet!!!! This doesn’t even touch Diplo’s abuse when she moved to Toronto alone. The label issues. her song being played on Skins which is why she got big. her leaving the label and then releasing the album on another label and then that new label stealing her money and then she finally got the royalties this past few months. She tells a lot of her life stories but her twitter gets deleted. 🤧🤧
WOULD LOVE TO DO A MUCH LONGER VIDEO ON HER LIFE but will doing those longer vids when channel is a lil bigger
I want to hear more about the 43 year old married man who was dating a 17 year old! Nowadays dont we call that a predator, not a boyfriend?
It was very different back then. All the rock stars in the 70’s and 80’s walking around with 15-16 year old groupies and NOBODY batted an eye. So sick! In Europe the age of consent laws are extremely low. On average they range from 14-16 years of age. When I was 15 I had a brief relationship with a 30 year old man and today I’m so disgusted by how he didn’t see anything wrong with it. I also looked very young at 15 (people mistake me for 17-18 today and I’m 28 now) so I believe that he was a pedophile tbh.
@@Muffinga ya, and we look back and say ewwwww. Like Elvis and Priscilla or R Kelly and aliyah. This nameless old married bf deserves to hear people say "ewwwwwww" at him too.
@@carolsimpson4422 For sure!
@@Muffinga back then?? This was like 2008!
@@Muffinga im sorry you went through that :(
She's a talented artist. Her music is like no other, she's like no other person I've ever known. Now that I know the trauma she went through, I see her in a different light. She's a natural entertainer. I understand her a lot more now.
I wish her nothing but the best. I wish her love and happiness, content in her own mind. She deserves it. No one should go through what she went through.
So tru, hope she finds peace and happiness after her childhood
I remember when she first came out. I miss her alot!! Her flow is one of a kind.
Really is unique, hope more people can understand where she comes from and try to be more embracing, shes one of the best!
For real! Everything she released until Anna Wintour slaps! After Anna Wintour she kinda lost it. But that's okay cause she still gave us sooooo many masterpieces already
azealia is the most talented rap girl of her generation
NEED MORE PEOPLE TO UNDERSTAND IT! I hope the 2000s revival brings back the free for all celeb culture! LET AZEALIA SPEAK!!!!
Definitely
Although a heartbreaking childhood story shouldn't be the only reason to support an artist, I honestly think Azealia has a lot of talent when it comes to her music. Her demeanor might not be the nicest, but her songs and vision deserve a lot more credit and praise than she's been given.
i never knew how chaotic her home life was. :( her music will always be a guilty pleasure i can't seem to let go of.
when she's smiling it doesn't reach her eyes. she looks so broken on the inside. not to excuses her misdeeds but i think she acts tough online to cope with the traumas, to feel that she's “in control” with herself and not the victim. she's bitter and full of hate because of the way the industry and people she loved treated her. as a person who went through similar issues it breaks my heart and feel empathy for her. she's very smart, talented, and real. wishing her best and to heal her wounded soul.
She is an icon and she is the moment.
I mean come on now!
now come on now ;)
She’s a terrible person…
@@zaraa6203 SAYS A FLOP.
I’m so proud of how far she’s come

Tbh after watching this video I see her in a whole new perspective she is the way she is because she didn’t have good parents to teach her respect and self awareness the fact that she made an entire plan to escape her mother broke my heart
She went through a lot damn
This is so enlightening, thank you. Azeliza banks is a complex queen.
Wish more people understood what she's been through
Honestly perfect description. Shes unapologetically real and maybe a lil too much for her own good. Thats ok too
I know sooooo many people talk bad about Azealia now but when you really look at, nobody talks about her past and even when she did become independent at a young age she needed a parent or at least someone who would be down for her whenever. She needed someone but nobody was REALLY there. She could have avoided soooo much negative things now if she really had someone with her best interest at heart with her. This doesn’t excuse her actions now but this explains ALOT of it. She really could have been ontop of the world but SOOO many people failed this baby from jump yet she still managed to be some what successful. Imagine if she had a real mentor.
You didn’t really touch on recent key events. And I just want to say that Azealia has never truly been afforded the luxury of madness like a lot of the white folk in the industry and especially her male counterparts. She is highly misunderstood and I hope my girl gets her flowers real soon. She is one of the greatest artistic minds of our generation and her pen is unmatched. Black women deserve more.
Probably bc the madness you speak came out too soon. No one is gonna take those kind of antics on someone who isn’t a totally established hit maker/money maker.
I understand what you’re saying but a lot of the things that people bash her for are just really fucked up things for anyone to say. I am black and lgbt and I find is crazy when others, especially non black folks, try to use her blackness as a reason to give her sympathy for the things that she says. She deserves sympathy for her trauma DESPITE her words and actions and those as important distinctions. I don’t like the whole “she is misunderstood just because she is black’ like… yeah she will have a harder time unfortunately for being black in the industry and that aint right but it’s disingenuous to act as if the majority of reasons why she is misunderstood isnt because her mental illness and trauma are mixed up with comments of racism, colorism, anti lgbt narratives etc because it is the reality
shes wayyy too talented to not find herself back in the spotlight. i got a lot of love for her, and i know being a black women in this industry is hard, and i feel like its her negative experiences that have shaped her behavior. i hope that things change enough and that she is happy enough to be able to come back and thrive
I’m sorry, Azealia Banks, for misjudging you all these years. At first, I only heard of Banks from her beefs or controversies, which kind of put me off to ever listening to her music. But as I’ve become more acquainted with her music in the past year, admittedly from accident as a result of Spotify playlists, I realize she is actually a full-on pioneer with outstanding range and versatility. No one does it like she does. She is a bop powerhouse. Also, she can sing in Spanish too! She brings such pastiche and, to a degree, camp, in her music.
And since many of the people she argued with have ended up showing their asses the past year, I realized that much of the time, she was right all along. Hopefully Azealia gets the roses and accolades she deserves, especially as people re-examine their prior misjudgments about her. I’m a fan now.
You are killing it with the videos!
THANK U FOR THE SUPPORT!!!!!!! Will go touch some grass after this but coming back sourer than ever! XD Meanwhile daily polls
i'm a huge huge huge azealia banks fan & i have zero shame. have been since count contessa & esta noche 😍 she has obviously been through a lot, which explains why she is how she is (explains, not excuses) howeverrrrrr she is insanely talented, she's up there with some of the best when it comes to rhymes and flow (do NOT @ me!!!) and has created some of my favorite songs to dance to, sing to, rap to.... i just really hope other people recognize her talent while she's still here on earth.
azealia really is a legend. i discovered her in 2019 when she released count contessa and i was hooked with her. most people only know her from luxury and 212, but she has countless bangers that i listen to on repeat every day. truly an icon
Azealia is honestly one of the best female rappers of this generation, her style her flow her sound and the aesthetic. Sad to see other female rappers being famous for literally spitting cliche bars when azealia’s talent is just being wasted
Its not being wasted she has influenced so many young black girls in her time and still is.
Idc what anyone says, she’s so musically talented it’s nuts 🤯she’s just really complex and misunderstood, but I for one will continue to love her music
Shes so unproblematic 😍😩💅

Yes like she said, if russel crowe still gets parts, still stream azealia!
I literally love her music so much, but she really needs therapy for everything she's been through, colourism is already bad enough, her portraying herself in such a crude manner only makes it harder for her music to get the recognition it deserves.
I'm rooting for her so hard 😭
I have been an AB fan since day one. I hope Gen Z gives her what she deserves. Y'all recognize her pure talent. I'll be seeing her this Dec in LA and can't wait.
Azealia Banks is a musical genius. Azealia Banks is a legend. Her genius and respect will not be realized until she’s gone, like Lil peep and Michael Jackson. Disrespected until their last day.
Def needs a part two
I'm still stuck on her father getting with her mum when he was 47 and she was 14. That's sick.
not the last 12 years of her career being condensed into the last 10 seconds of the video 😂
She is a literal icon
I want her to win so bad, I wish her all the money happiness & peace in the world 🙏🏻
My heart goes out to anyone who had a abusive mother & dealing with trauma. 🙏I have not seen my since I was 12 . So grateful that music heals & brings everyone around the world together. Azalea is so gifted & hope she heals & finds her happiness . 🙏👸💚✨✨✨✨
Ok, I'm from Montreal and had no idea she was in Montreal. Honestly, it's a cheap city and lots of people come here to get their shit together haha. I've been a long time fan of Azealia from the beginning. I think she's incredibly talented and you can tell from her lyrics, she writes meaningful poetry. She's very very intelligent. I think she can definitely make it big, really big. BUT, she needs to stop talking shit about others and starting beef with literally everyone. She's had a lot of trauma in her life and she needs to deal with it first.
When I go back to Montreal I need to know where the brick wall in her video is 😩😂
@@ChrisCanomi I live here and I have no clue where that brick wall is haha! It could be anywhere tbh cause this whole city is just brick buildings lmao.
I will never stop loving her.
Dang this made me cry a bit, all you hear is bad things about her. Don't agree with some of the things she says half the time towards people, at the same time people don't take interest in why people are the way they are. Thank you for showing depth of Azealia's background. I think she still has a lot of potential shes 29, and still capable of a lot of things (who knows what that might all be) lol
I found this so touching. She’s an amazing talent. I remember escaping my home in new ways when I began attending LaGaurdia High School.
There was an undercurrent in the school that really let you become yourself, as awkward as it probably was during high school ❤️
People hate this lady but I think she’s strong and talented. Just avant-garde
If she gets an offical documentary shown on hbo max/netflix (or even in theaters tbh) , that really showcases her journey through the music industry along with showing how talented she is....she could 100% make a come back. She's misunderstood, thats the problem.
I won't use this as an excuse for all she have done but it definitely explains most of it. She craves attention and validation and honestly, it would be strange if she didn't since she grew up in a household like that. I feel bad for her and I hope she gets help so she can calm down and start acting like an actual cool human being. Her music is amazing so imagine the career and impact she could have had if she wasn't so problematic.
This breaks my heart 😢😢
Hope more people understand her and try to be more open with her
this is why people should start to consider and take serious black people's mental health, yes azealia has done/said the worst things but thats because how she grew up, have more empathy with her pls
She hasn't killed or r*ped anyone, she's still good in my book. If you're a rapper and you're not potty-mouthed or controversial, you're doing it wrong.
@@_blank-_ okay i get your point abt being controversial but like she said extremely hateful things belitting trans women saying their boys on hormones, which theyre not.....there's a limit to what you can say without it coming off as racist/transphobic
@@all4uuuu She's broken. I can see that all beyond that hatred she is a good person. She is trying go find herself but she is so conflicted with her childhood issues. A bad parenting inevitably mess you up.
That dosen't excuse what she did
@@blackwolfdragon1705 i’m not excuse it, i’m just saying know where a person like azealia comes from….
I understand how she feels because my father was killed when I was only five and my mom was pregnant with my little sister. The only remember of him is him being in a coffin and I got to put a white teddy bear that was holding a red rose and I also still remember what the bear fully looked like to this very day. My mom raised my little sister and I on her own but our grandparents babysit us until we got in school but we still ended up at our grandparents after school because our mom did not get off until 5:30pm. I wish I could remember something about him but I got nothing and the only memories I do got is what my mom and others tells me. My dad and my mom did not get along well with his people but we still had a small hand full that we like it.
The way that people are saying that her tragic childhood is not a reason to act the way she is. But, she is literally a woman who went through a lot of TRAUMA as a CHILD and people aren’t truly taking that into account. Smh
I loveeeee AB idc people act like she's the only person that 🙄 has anger issues and a tweeter
I always overlook her ways cause her talent is that great
I’m so saddened bc she is an amazing singer! I watched her sing in Coachella I think it was, and her breath control is good!! And she sung so beautiful
Her smile is so earnest.
I will forver love Azealia no matter what happens. True inspiration!
It’s always the talented and brilliant that are the most troubled. It makes me so sad to see people turn her into a spectacle not for her contributions to music but for her lows and eccentricities. She’s a person, a complex human being, and deserves to be treated as such, rather than being demonized.
It appears she's finally really getting better. She's attributed it to her getting a woman manager, and that said manager gives her downtime and takes her mental health seriously.
I have always & will always root for her! She is one of the most talented ppl in the industry... I just want her to work on her mental health!
The Queen of RAP. Literally the best to ever do it. All the greats know it.
Well
i hate to say it but it’s true…
The Queen of rap is still, and WILL always be Nicki Minaj. Sit down. Princess maybe but tell me who Azealia has opened the doors for besides racists?
@@uhm_5414 lol all her hits are POP though🤣
Not when moment for life, the boys, yikes, pill n potions, anaconda, want some more, Barbie dreams, Barbie tings, chun li, new body, plain Jane rmx, fefe,trolls, do I need to go on weirdo
How’re you able to post these highly edited videos so often? I’m intrigued.
I wonder the same thing all the time... also the outro music deserves an award
the devil works hard but POPICANA works harder
QT bb ❤️
I really love your channel 💛 I admire that you are able to prepare so many videos so often with such a quality. I wish you lot of succes and even more ideas to present
THANK U FOR THE SUPPORT!!!!!!!! Will go touch some grass after this but coming back sourer than ever! XD Meanwhile daily polls!!
AB's been one of my favorite artists. I've seen her live twice and they were the best concerts ive ever been to.
I will always support her art
She's iconic she doesn't need to be mainstream so it's really up to azealia at this point 🤷🏿♂️
She’s amazing her music is unique and definitely still 1 of my favorite rappers that actually original
I think she feels she has to be aggressive and loud as she never experienced healthy strong masculine and feminine parental figures in her life.
Definitely adds context to the way she speaks sometimes.
Either way, her artistry makes her an icon.
Her music is sooo good she had so much potential. Her mouth and rants is what keep people including me, from listening. I hope she gets help for her past trauma, it obviously still effects her and maybe that’s why she acts the way she does.
Yh i hope she finds inner peace but also I feel like her inner peace will always be different to what other people's versions of inner peace is. Her talent will never fade, hope she stays happy and calm
She always talks truth🤷🏻♂️
She always speaks facts though…
honestly her music is just that good I just have to tune in with her music
YES! end of day, all bout the music and her tunes are timeless!
loved the video btw, can you do a pt 2 and start talking about her debut album, Broke with Expensive Taste? its an amazing album and she did get a lot of love from that era and I would love to know more till the present day now.
Was going to do a video on every single feud she had ever XDDDDDD but thats a great idea, truly an underrated classic. Will add to my next batch list
U are a legend like two videos every day??? 💕💕💕 ur an inspiration 🙌🏼
THANK U FOR THE SUPPORT!!!!! Will go touch some grass after this but coming back sourer than ever! XD Meanwhile daily polls!!
POPICANA 💕💕💕
People often want to forget trasformative creativity is born out of suffering. We need our celebrities to provide us with the fantasy of an untroubled existence, and we don't forgive them when they break that fantasy.
You forgot to mention her Fantasea mixtape! That was awesome. I remember hearing it for the first time and being blown away by how creative and dynamic it was... straight away you can tell when an artist has something special.
She was so good! She’s s only 29 I hope she brings out some more amazing music soon 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
Still so young! Lots of new acts are older than her, wishing she finds happiness and peace in whatever
@@POPICANA 💙💙💙💙💙
Azealia Banks is an incredible talented artist , one of the best. 💖
Also your video is so good ❤️
Really one of the best! Wish people saw that alsooo More on the way!!! Will go touch some grass after this but coming back sourer than ever! XD Meanwhile daily polls!!
Every distinctive artist has a madness to them. Always loved Azealia Banks
she had to grow up so fast
say what you like about her but she’s still a musical genius
The people who stan azealia banks are the same people who like to cancel celebrities. Like make it make sense plz
@@ominous_light I don’t get how that relates to what I said?
In what way and in which reality is she a "musical genius"? What are her musical talents? What instruments can she play? Does she produce her own songs?
@@cockoffgewgle4993 a quick search before commenting could’ve prevented this but yes she actually does both
I dont care how problematic she is. Alot of male artists have gotten away with far worst things.
Like whom?
Thank you for making this! Azealia is one of my favorite artists and I'm so happy that this video give more insight to the icon that she really is.
“...an event that would traumatize her mother worsening her already fragile mental state” meanwhile the background and music are like “aesthetic vibe dreamy y2k cyber chill beats to listen to while studying” 😗
