Ugh I wish she had more interviews. I search for new ones all the time & I've seriously seen them all even the ones where she's on ustream lol I'm just obsessed a bit.
She seemed a little depressed in the interview. It kinda made me feel as a fan, that her album was never gonna come out. I feel that way now. Like she's just living in the moment. Like She'll eventually give up on rap and go back to doing basic shit. I don't want to see THAT azealia. I don't know.
I think she started rapping to gain greater positions. As in like, the first job that someone ever has is always somewhere crappy like a burger joint or something, but they start there as foundation work then move onto better jobs and end up being in offices. Lana Del Rey openly said that she only started singing so she could earn credit to become a film director. That's what I think Azealia is doing.
I'm 14 but not gay ! & I support her music . I love this girl , don't like what she thinks her audiences & fans look like, BUT I still love her ! 2013 is you're year PRETTY AB ! She speaks so well and wise !
Why does she have a deal? Because she's mad talented. Great lyricist and a great singer. Rap isn't her only 'thing'. In fact a lot of people have dismissed her as a 'rap artist' so I guess she isn't - she's just an artist.
i know she's been talking about not rapping since 212 1st came out, so i'm not to shocked to hear her wanna stop. i'm not sure 2 albums with rapping will happen, but whenever she switches to jazz, i'm sure she'll still be producing quality sound.
I love what she said about the generic fashion industry. That was deep. One of the reasons why I admire this woman is because she speaks her mind and doesn't hold back - no sugar coating shit.
Doing an article on this soon...to her (and several other femcees) straight-up hip-hop is the "Genre of No," forcing strict rules on the sound and dress code, deeming anyone who breaks these "sell-outs". I see the question is no longer "Can we save hip-hop?" Now it might be "Is hip-hop worth saving?"
She is very grounded, its nice to hear. Well articulated too, nice to see this side behind the often rude music she produces (love it, but lots of swearing etc.)
She's the only female artist I've heard in awhile that's allowed herself to fully express her future to an interviewer with a real perspective that isn't ran through a PR middleman. She'll quit rap? Fine, I'll stay a fan. Looking at an artist and not projecting themselves in their career is important. When I heard she wanted to quit rapping I recoiled, but I respected that she wanted to progress and go back to school. I think its admirable.
i'm not a big fan of her music but i know she's talented i would never deny that and i'm rooting for her i hope she makes it and kicks nicki minaj out of the spotlight because azealia is smarter, more talented, and way more intriguing than nicki and we need some of that right now. everyone in the industry right now has turned into mindless pop stars and its disappointing considering music used to mean something and these stars are singing about nothing for a paycheck then wasting the money
IA, people don't see it as an opinion but like they try to insert themselves into that opinion and feel like she's making it a public statement. I thought it was distasteful of her to say rap was unladylike. I don't agree w/ it, but that's where she's at with it. People need to understand this!
She is a true artist, I don't care about her album sales she is so talented it scares me! I am happy she is keeping true to her sound and her tune on this album. "Very anti-pop/ anti everything happening"
NO DON'T QUIT RAPPING. Don't stop being a female rapper because you think it is tacky... make it UNTACKY with your exquisite talent and don't become a sell out and you will be respected!
i don't understand why she wants to quit rapping. It is her way of earning credit. she can be as big as gaga or perry. Vevo just has to promote her videos more often.
I see she's learning how to properly carry herself in the public eye. She's come off quite..."unrefined" in previous interviews that I've seen. Despite her music being crude and a slight obscene, she could at least - as we've witnessed here - represent her self intelligently and show that she does have some education. Although she should eliminate "like" from her vocabulary. It would also be a smart choice for her to not make rapping a lifetime career choice. The music industry is a tough one!
I love her trap music though when's it's very borough grimey & hood. She sounds so good on them, makes me go back to the 90's in NewYork, That gully type shit.
. I hope her album will be good as her mixtape and tbh I listen to 1991, Liquorice, and Fierce the most. I love her and I'm not really a hip hop/pop music fan. Oh and I'm not Gay lol.
what's wrong with being mainstream? and if you are not mainstream, you are not "winning"? of course she wants to be mainstream, that's the whole point...she wanted to take Nicki's spot but is prob just realizing how hard the industry is...she is sounding like she's giving up already...she's speaking about leaving the rap game when she's barely in it...and no one will ever be the next Nicki Minaj...she is a one of a kind and won't be outdone until she signs a female rapper
Well it depends on accent and region to of course. But like usually Asian or Hispanic ( assuming white Hispanic) in US sound more similar to white than black, but you can still sometimes tell they are not white. Also say a woman from London, i find that women from London have deeper voices than women from US, and Asia and those places i cant really say because they are speaking a different language so of course they will sound different.
this rap game is not for everybody, and apparently this video shows that. it a lot of hard work and things you don't want to do. back to the drawing board for her.
I'm asking why she has a record deal as a RAPPER if she thinks its tacky. I'm a fan, I'm not hating but what she said makes no sense, its like biting the hand that feeds you
