@muah, Agreed and while she is my favorite … to each is own .. whether she is for you or not she has her own swag. If she hopped on a random ass song and heard her you’d know that was Azealia … shes got a significant swag.

@muah, her flow reminds me of how The Notorious B.I.G. used to rap.

@NickiiMinajj, back your opinion up, though. Are you sayin’ this, just because you don’t like her or because you honestly feel that way? What makes her lame? She does have that Missy-swag to her, but it ain’t like she hasn’t paved her own lane. She has flow, lyrics and a fresh style. She does have a rotten personality with all the tamper tantrums, but that has nothing to do with her music. I can’t see how someone thinks she’s lame, when she’s bringing back the essentials of rap, while still bringin’ an innovating sound. I am not attacking you, I am just interested to see how you come to the conclusion that someone I see as extremely talented and dope, to be lame.

@NickiiMinajj, Nicki Minaj is 100 times more similar to Lil’ Kim than Azealia to Missy.

@NickiiMinajj, You are such a fucking hater! She isn’t trying to be anyone but herself! The beat is mad hot and she goes in on the verses! I’d like to see you put out music!Hop off Nicki’s dick ,love Nicki too but you always trying to put her against Azealia! Azealia is bringing the fire and will smash hard!

Sick! I wish she would close her mouth because her music is NEXT LEVEL THINKING! She’s too talented for the media drama.

Well done girl, more of this please :)

@WonderLand19, to me she is truly the female kanye west!

the temper tantrums, rants and everything, but both are really artist, they can rap their ass off, and they are innovative.

I feel like she could work on her delivery, though. And she needs to articulate, because sometimes it’s hard to understand what she’s sayin’. Other than that, chick’s dope! I have not one bad thing to say about her music.

This is on some next level shit! Ms.Banks went hard on her rap verses! I will definetly download Fantasea Mixtape on July 4th and buy her debut album Broke With Expensive Taste in the Fall! FYI she’s back on Twitter too! The video for Liquorice is on it’s way as well!

@NickiiMinajj, alright, fine. I gave you a fair chance as a person to further explain yourself and your opinion, but you chose to confirm that you’re just a dumb broad. Way to go, I am sure Nicki is proud to have fans like yourself representing her.

This mixing of this song is very sloppy and it’s pointless. So tired of brainless, gimmicky music.

This is Dope! You just to young to understand what she’s talking about because its all Subliminal “All these chickens out for dollas, all they get is the Franks ( Not Benjamin Franklins $$ but franks…Weiners), they Linens is blank ( No Designer Labels)” haha. Foxy did a lot of that on the ill nana Album #Classic The beat does sound similar to Missy tho :-/

I’m guessing she’s a good rapper. However, I personally don’t like this bitches attitude. She’s always talking shit, and I just don’t like her (personality wise) AT ALL. She said she was quitting “the rap game” and not signing to a label, but she also said she’s quitting Twitter, but I see her ass let that mistake bite her in the ass! When she realizes the Dumb shit she says will fuck up her career, she’ll shut up that nasty mouth of hers. By the time she gets her head together and STOPS acting like a CHILD, she’ll probably have a MALE manager AND be trying to get signed to a major label. I predicted this ho would return promptly to twitter, and I have her whole agenda figured out. I JUST DONT understand why she HAS to be such a BITCH/ASSHOLE/CUNT/disgusting ass bitter HO

Ooook. Absolutely no one can tell me that she doesn’t sound like Missy Eliott. She sounds EXACTLY like her. Way toooo similar. Nicki doesn’t sound fully similar to anyone. Nicki’s got that roman shit that randomly changes on people that NO ONE else is doing. But azealia sounds exactly like missy. I had to check if missy was on the track!
