I'm telling you, simply by

A) Getting out of her contract with rights to her music
B) Filing her tax returns

Azealia has already surpassed 95% of the rap game

She's amazing

There was some article earlier in the year about Birdman and the YM lawyers scheming to sabotage him and leave him in debt.

Drake and Nicki will get it too, I bet. Those contracts must be insane.

Nah. Wayne has a 360 deal, and was one signed with the truest loyalty to Birdman (them late-90s deals + a mid-00s resigning). Nicki and Drake don't have 360 deals (+ have , and both are loyal to Wayne, but if push came to shove they'd get their lawyers to buck down quickly.

NICKI MINAJ SIGNS TO YOUNG MONEY/UNIVERSAL RECORDS

Months after Drake signs with Universal Records, another intense bidding war ensues, resulting in Nicki Minaj signing with Lil Wayne’s Young Money label. During the last two years Minaj has emerged as one of the premiere rappers, choosing to fore go earlier label offers in order to establish a stronger fan base by way of the internet, promotional touring and a series of mixtapes.

After the release of Playtime is Over and Sucker Free, it was her third mixtape, the critically acclaimed Beam Me Up Scotty with featured appearances from Lil Wayne, Gucci Mane, Busta Rhymes, Bobby Valentino and Drake that caught the attention of music industry heavy weights.

Lil Wayne asserts, “I am honored to have Nicki Minaj as Young Money’s First Lady. She is a star.”

The battle among labels to sign Minaj heightened this summer and finalized with Minaj signing an exceptional and very unique deal with Young Money/Universal, where she retains and owns all of her 360 rights, including merchandising, sponsorships, endorsements, touring and publishing.

Nicki Minaj asserts, “To say I’m excited would be an understatement. It’s validation. It’s proof. It’s empowerment. I represent every little girl in a hood near you. To everyone that supported me two years ago when I was on underground mix-tapes and DVDs and to the people that only caught on two weeks ago, I say thank you. Be proud of yourself. You’ve given girls all around the world the permission to change the face of female rap.”

Minaj’s debut album is anticipated to be released in early 2010 and will be distributed through Universal Motown. Minaj is currently appearing with Lil Wayne at sold-out arenas throughout the country on the America’s Most Wanted tour, which also features Young Jeezy, Soulja Boy and more. Minaj continues to be managed by Mizay Enertainment’s Debra Antney who also represents Gucci Mane.

I don't get why y'all are really acting like she hasn't been in TIME, Entertainment Weekly, Rolling Stone, NME, Pitchfork, quoted on MSNBC, etc. since BWET came out.

Her fanbase is definitely primarily a weirdo-internet cult following but she has a larger presence in mainstream media than say Lykke Li, St. Vincent, Marina, etc. She's definitely not only known on ATRL, she's just disproportionately popular here.

The Carter V must be terrible. There's no way Wayne - the biggest moneymaker on Cash Money - can't get his an album released after the successes of his last two Carters + his consistent success with other releases.

Well, the singles were horrible and all flopped (haven't heard any of them on the radio minus Believe Me) but he prolly got screwed over by his contract.

It's kind of weird how when Azealia isn't selling anything she can always make herself a water cooler topic but literally no one talked about Robin's divorce or attempts to get Paula back.

So funny and interesting

Slobro, did u see Under The Skin ?

i think u might want to...

it's not as good as Snowpiercer and Boyhood tho!

[Jameson Teqkilla]

I still need to watch Under The Skin, I hope it slays Lucy tbh

[Ozzy8923]

The Hanging Tree is weird. It's like she's just talking before that really stunning instrumental comes in towards the middle with the chorus of people. J.Law didn't really do that much for the song.

HDD: THAT'S A LOTTA EYEBALLS: Iggy Azalea’s “Fancy” was Vevo’s most-watched music video of 2014 in the U.S., delivering nearly 140 million views.

No matter where she goes from here, she's already been more successful than Azit will ever be

[Halien4Life]

lolz, OFC it's better than Lucy...

ScarJo is a bad actress, but the movie is good

even tho i watched it at the time it came out, and during the hype. I still think it's a good movie...
