Azealia Banks finally releases Broke With Expensive Taste LP
Azealia Banks has finally released her debut LP Broke With Expensive Taste on iTunes (US only at the moment).
Banks' record has been plagued by perpetual delays, roadblocks, label changes and the rapper's penchant for stirring up beef/s (beeves?). She publicly ended ties with former label Interscope earlier this year.
However, she seems pleased by the end of the two(ish) year wait:
If my album was a baby born on November 6, it would be a Scorpio... My album is a Scorpio y'all! Lol!
