Azealia Banks will appear on the cover of Playboy and in a nude pictorial in the April 2015 issue of the magazine. The badass rapper from Harlem poses, according to editors, in a “frisky pictorial that’s sure to break the Internet.” In addition to the photo spread, Rob Tannebaum talks to Banks in a no-holds-barred interview.
So, that should be fun.
Here’s a teaser pic from the shoot by photographer Ellen Von Unwerth.
Banks released her latest album Broke With Expensive Taste without any warning digitally in November. It debuted at No. 1 on the U.S. iTunes Hip Hop Charts. Broke With Expensive Taste will be available in stores nationwide on March 3.
She’s going on tour to support it.
