Azealia Banks sets date, title for debut album
By CMU Editorial | Published on Tuesday 28 February 2012
Harlem-based MC Azealia Banks is poised to capitalise on her ‘212’ infamy with a debut album, which now bears the brand new title ‘Broke With Expensive Taste’.
Speaking in an interview with Nylon magazine, Banks described the LP’s overarching theme as being based on “a young girl trying to find it”, ‘it’ being: “Success! Herself! Her path! The young girl trying to make it! She needs to get what she can get! She needs to go out there and show people she knows how to work for it”.
Well, I might need a little time to react to all! That! Enthusiasm! Fortunately, Polydor-signed Banks isn’t due to release the LP, plus a ‘212’ EP, until 25 Mar.
