C: Did it feel like an "I told you so"?
It’s good to do that, but nobody wants to hear me do that. I’m obviously a very strong woman. It’s not to say that I’m at all trying to seem weak to make people like me or anything like that.
I’m not going to say, “I told you so,” because you know so, and I know you know so. So we’re just going to leave it at that, and I’m going to go on and do my other things. One thing I can say, I distinctly remember what publications stuck by me and which ones ******* on me. Complex was definitely one of the ones that ******* on me.
C: In what way?
Just lots of ways, a lot of the times those things would happen...
C: —the headlines.
I feel like you guys at Complex, it’s more like it’s a boys club kind of thing. I get ******* on by Complex a lot, like a lot. Yeah, in terms of headlines and in terms of when I put stuff out, the comments have always been shady. You guys have all of these little small bloggers there that tweet really disgusting things. I almost feel like Complex is part of that group of urban media stuff that I just you know….
It’s an interesting dynamic because it's a men's hip-hop magazine.
Yeah. I feel like Complex Magazine has done a really good job in exaggerating a lot of things that are happening in the media, and Complex has played a really great hand in putting the sour taste for Azealia Banks in the public’s mouth.
C:In terms of like writing a news post if you came at someone on Twitter?
Yeah. The writing and everything. Complex Magazine has played a huge role in a lot of the problems that I’ve had over the past three years. It’s such a huge publication, and when people go to search for Azealia Banks, Complex articles are some of the first to come up, and those are the first articles people are reading about Azealia. Instead of listening to my music or anything like that. There will be a publication like Pitchfork—they will cover the news, but it’s not sensationalized.
C:Is it the tone?
Complex Magazine has greatly sensationalized the villainist Azealia Banks thing.
C:How do we flip the narrative now?
Give me a cover.
C: When is the physical coming?
January. The physical release will have other songs on it. Probably like three or four
C: Anyway, you’re going to do the physical release, but what's next?
The next project is going to be another Fantasea project.
C: And your fans really want that.
Hell yeah, and I really want that. That’s how I spend my summer, dressing up like a mermaid. I switch my hair color and everything becomes about mermaids for the summer. I’ve done it for the past three years of my life. I’m not about to change it now.
