YMMV / Azealia Banks

• Alternative Character Interpretation: Is "Chasing Time" about getting out of a relationship that's going nowhere or is it about Azealia wanting to be free from her label who mismanaged her for so long and held her music in Development Hell?
• Awesome Music: Her Signature Song "212" is a rather raving and catchy hip house song that even Banks' detractors find great.
• Fan-Preferred Cut Content: A number of people prefer "Competition," the demo version of "Luxury," over the version that was released.
• Memetic Mutation: "I FUCKED RYDER RIPPS", which comes from Banks making a sex audio with her ex-fiancé Ryder Ripps and selling it as an NFT. Suffice to say, the title made rounds online.
  • Poking fun at her arrogant and vicious attitude can be this as well, especially since she'll make a huge tirade about it on her instagram.
• Nightmare Fuel: Yung Rapunxel
• Overshadowed by Controversy: Azealia is a very talented and versatile artist, which is corroborated by both her fans and detractors when it comes to discussing her music, however, her seemingly neverending stream of beefs (both online and IRL), extremely controversial statements, legal troubles, social media shutdowns, instances of bad behavior, inability to control her anger and various other behaviors has done so much to overshadow her actual output and damage her career that many mainstream listeners have only known her for her latest blowup and have been surprised to learn that she's an actual musician. While she has managed to stay afloat, even her remaining fans and defenders can generally (if not grudgingly) agree that she has blown basically every chance to greatly elevate her career and see her talent recognized.
