      It's not reggae, it's new york slang which is influenced by Caribbean accent and culture as in London which is why people thought Banks is British. Her voice style here is classic House mixed with rap, and neo soul. Back in the 90s, black vocals over House edm like La Bouche "Wanna Be My Lover" Crystal Waters "Gypsy" Mark "Return of the Mac" Fatboy Slim "Song for Shelter" and Haddaway "What Is Love" was the thing and she radiates that throwback NYC culture, juxtaposed with modern hip hop. She really is iconic for this like it or not right? However I agree that she switched between several genres and ranges.

Saint jhn, billie eilish, anyone who refuses to follow their step by step how to be famous crap.. Its all tied in and it all relates back to kurt cobain.. Trust me i know how this sounds but.. Man. He and courtney had their kid taken at 2 weeks old for lies about her being on drugs while pregnant they fought it and got her back their way and now hes dead.. My child was recently taken for the same lies. I also live under a bridge currently like he did when he wrote something in the way.

    For people wondering: yes it sounds British as the song was marketed primarily for the UK dance/ club scene. Made its way to airwaves of radio 1…etc. Azealia is a Harlem native…212 is NYC area code. Banger…not so much in the states.

      I’m struggling to see how Azealia Banks with that board American accent sounds British (none of the many British accents were represented here)…
      Most North Americans don’t really know what a British accent sounds like (truly), so I’m not surprised to here many thought this “sounded British”.

    • @liftingskies8970
