Music Minute - Iggy Azalea: "Bounce"

She might not be a classical black chick rapper, but i think this is the best ever! Iggy Azalea has finally released her second single, and that hopefully means that the album, we are all waiting for, is round the corner.

So, i have already written about Iggy and also draw her. I think it was this drawing (see below) and about the video to her song "Work". And really i have to say that i am a big fan of her and i really like it that she sis not an american black girl rapping. They all say she misses the street credibility, but i don't care about that. I mean its music! And she does pretty great shit!

So this time I am going to write about her new single which is called Bounce. One again Iggy is going the electronic way and Bounce is a mixture of rap and electronic sounds. Its really an ear catcher. You can see the cover art right here: 

I really like the vibe she is giving us on there, it really is so high fashion. And the pose is fabulous! Bout the dress well its okay and befits the blue background. But these super wild patterns: i'm not a fan... But the hairstyle is fabulous!

But back to the song and the video. generally the video and the song are opposites. The video is Iggy in some exotic country like India, Indonesia or somewhere in the region. She dances in the traditional(?) clothes with dancers from there, and we also see her riding on an elephant. Its pretty much like an alienation thing And, even though i am not such a big fan of the clothes form there areas, i really like it. I mean you have to admit that the contrast between old culture and new electronic FemC rap is pretty great! Oh and by the way: The song is great! Have a look at the song on Perez Hilton or just right here. But it will only work here on the page if Vevo works in your country. 

Music Minute: Azealia Banks - From "Fantasea" to "Broke With Expensive Taste"

Here is the first episode of a new segment i'd like to call: "Music Minute"! In this segment I will always talk about some artist, some song, some music video, some concert or something i am in live with right now, or am a real fan of. So lets all just dive right in:

This time Im gonna present to you a relatively new hip hop artist from the New York underground scene which has gone viral on youtube and twitter. I think you know her from her hit single "212" feat. Lazy Jay and her newly released single "Yung Rapunxel". Her name is Azealia Banks and you should so know her. You might also know her from her appearance on twitter starting, what long has been a forgotten thing, hot and messy twitter feuds! I think this girl has started a feud with every other hip hop MC and FemC artist, her own managment and uhmm i dont know.. everyone. But still i like her very much, not only for her music. She has already been crowned a fashion icon, and is rumored to be on atrack of the queen of pop's, Lady Gaga, new album: ARTPOP. Anyways we can say that I am very much excited for this one to get released. Banks is Harlem based and she right now is 21 and on may 31st she will turn 22. She has already payed some recognizable gigs, had some TV appearances and won an NME award and the Billboard award for new style icon. For the hip hop world quite new is that Banks is openly bisexual and a member of a new genereation where labelling by gay, bi, straight, lesbian etc is no longer important and categories have fallen apart. Thereby I'd conclude that Banks is also a user of queer theory. Or it this gender talk is just not important for her anymore, I  mean its 2013 and some people might not even care anymore! Thumps up! But back to the topics: Azealia has released a mixtape called "Fantasea" and I have already listened to it for a while. I can say its very good, and there are some tracks on it which i very much like to have in my playlist. My absolute favorites i think are Luxery, Chips and Jumanji. Her style of rap is very unique and very fast. You barely understand what she says and the beat she uses is very uptempo and electronic. Her style thereby is very unique and sometimes it is really alienating how she combines these electric sounds and her rap. Aso she is a quite good singer, which for a hip hop artist is pretty seldom. But check it out yourself  when she sings her version of late Amy Winhouse's track Valerie!

On april 16th she finally released her single video for her song "Yung Rapunxel" (which is also her name on twitter) and stunned fans worldwide. Not only the video is a barn burner but check out that single cover. I mean wow! My brain is creative and sick, but to think of something like that! Wow! But back to "Yung Rapunxel". The song is a mixture of a dark uptempo electro beat with the sickening vibe of creepy. Her rap is very dark and super fast! Its hard to understand! The middle of the song is a very silent part and also the song has some really aggressive seconds where she just scream-raps.It is this amazing song that scares the shit out of you and you still enjoy it, but you have to listen more than once to like it. It is possible that this song will be on Banks debut Album"Broke with Expensive Taste" which is said to come out 2013. But I think I have said enough. Since Vevo is not working in my country (Damn you Veveo!) you have to go on lovely Vimeo and check out the video  right here. And if neither Vevo nor Vimeo is working in your country then I am sorry for you and I have some advice for you: move! ;) But if you look below there are some still from this amazing and mind fucking video, which on a scale from 1 - 10 is a creep of 4, which for a rap music video is pretty high!

So you can see that the video, like the song are rather dark and sinister, and I have to say: I like it!

Iggy Azalea

See there I have to admit that I have a serious crush on the music and the looks of Iggy Azalea. (Even though she is in a major fight with Azealia Banks, whom I also adore!)

Well the inspiration behind this picture is Iggy Azaleas: Work - Video. Not only the video is great but also the song is sick! I mean its so awsome!

Whoever said that females can not do hard rap: go and cry! Because after you have checked out Iggy azalea you will never again trust a super model. because this female MC looks like a supermodel and has a filthy rap mouth like a seaman! So here are Iggy`s Videos for Work and for Pu$$y .

I think i will do a lot of drawing concerning her since she is that fukin amzing and gorgeous. But her sound is, that one has to admit very unusual.

Next in my list would be Azealia Banks who has some serious beef wit Iggy.

So stay tuned!
