She's just been dropped by her UK booking agent. As someone who knows about how brutal the British Public is I can honestly say they won't have her back here for a long time.
Before this I would've said the UK is one of the only places who'd pick up a new song of hers but definitely not now. She p*ssed off a lot of people at Radio 1Xtra last week when she beefed with their DJ's and dissed the Grime scene, they were the last station playing her music.
Allegedly she's doing Celebrity Big Brother here, the mess that'll ensue if she does that will be all kinds of amazing & bad and I'm lowkey here for it.
edit: just seen your from LDN, you'll know then sis.

Seeing all the 1Xtra DJ's getting offended made me worry that she isnt coming back here for at least like 2-3 years  and you're right that was her biggest station that played music here. I don't think the Big Brother thing is true though, I think I seen that months ago and the line up doesnt normally leak until like a week before. Uh it's just a big mess for her

Aren't they not allowed to swear on Big Brother anymore? She's not even capable of doing that.

Not on the UK version. I'm pretty sure they only block out "C!nt" so she'd be semi-okay

She won't be doing CBB now.
Because of the racist comments, she could've gotten away with the homophobia.

Who knew the fall of Azealia Banks would happen so swiftly.
It was a nice 4 years though.

You've got a lot of Asian guys working in Urban radio in the UK at stations like Radio 1, 1Xtra, Kiss FM. None of them will touch her new stuff with a barge pole now. We should bare in mind the last few times she played Reading/Leeds she headlined the 1Xtra stage.. it's a domino effect. They won't book her no more.
Glastonbury to, it's a festival that prides itself on the liberal attitudes the hippies had in the 60's when they first established it. They aren't going book Azealia now on the back of her comments. I know it sounds dramatic but she's well and truly ended her career. UK ain't touching her and in the US she's seen as a joke.
Really interested to see what happens with RZA & Coco, he must be so f*cked off with her.

She's over, and as bad as it sounds, she deserves it.
I'm so sad about it. She is amazing live.

She really does. I'm so glad y'all aren't delusional like the Twitter stans
I'm so interested to see what she's gonna do now. Like is she gonna let this be her reality check or is she gonna continue being a huge mess, is she just gonna fade away forever, is she still gonna make music, are there still people out there who will book her/work with her? This is gonna be so interesting.
As of right now she's still on Instagram making excuses.

I have to be realistic. She has ****ed up this time. From an objective point, she deserves it and that is what you get when you aren't a nice person. She is a ****ing moron and so is her idiotic family. Like seriously, your girl could be on top right now and you would be raking in $$$ and now look what happened?
I'm so sad and disappointed though. The energy I felt when I saw her live was amazing. I've seen some of the best acts of the modern day (P!nk, Lady Gaga, a lot of other artists and bands) but nothing compared to the intimacy I felt with Azealia. The BEATS were fire! Her soothing voice. Her music is ****ing godly too. You feel great listening to it. I'm so sad.
It's going to be a lot to come back from this. I mean, VERY MUCH a challenge. I can't even begin when to explain how she could fix this.

That's another thing. Does she even HAVE people to help her run damage control even if she wanted to?
She's ****ed up so many relationships
Tragic.

I agree. It had to happen. It's a really sad situation because her talent knows no bounds and is one of the best live acts I've seen, she commands a crowd like no other. In a way I'm gutted I only saw her once in 2012.
Atleast we're all level-headed enough in this base to have a discussion about it. I can't at the Fave Brigade still encouraging her. The fact she's making excuses on Instagram shows she really doesn't get it and it's sad because clearly she has no one around the guide or help her. Just hangers on who's wages she pays.
Is it bad I want it to get worse for her? As in producers, festivals, photographers refuse to book her. More than anything though I just want Azealia to get help.
edit: just realised she has that show in Istanbul this weekend.

Let's just think of all the great things she could of done if she didn't **** up so much ****
If she didin't call Perez a ****** then she could of kept her MAC deal, giving her so much exposure on magazines, covers, and even TV. She could of made a massive hit with Lady Gaga, Rihanna, Beyoncé, Pharrel, Nicki and other artists. She could of been became artists opening acts at tours and even have an arena tour of her own. Her album would of also been released earlier, mixtapes earlier, and other projects earlier. She would of had bigger budgets with music videos and create amazing visuals. She could of been extended into the ****ing Asian market for **** sakes since she started doing shows there. She could of been the biggest artist in Europe and Asia right now! Manging to be the first female rapper to do so. She could of been in movies!
She is intelligent too, she could of possibly channelled that intelligence in a different light. She could of became everybody's BITCH. But sadly, she isn't now and at this rate, never will.

The good thing is that if she were to straighten up, making a "comeback" really wouldn't entail much at all. Like... not gonna say any names but a certain other girl had a LOT to do to make a comeback because she got so big before, so her flopping to hell right now and no one being here for her anymore is really noticeable and embarrassing but Azealia was never big anyway lol. So if she took some time to work on herself and showed her progress on social media and in interviews and also kept releasing some great music, she could be good to go.
I saw some stans on Twitter tweeting Charlamagne to get her on The Breakfast Club right now. Are they crazy?  The last thing she needs right now is to go off on a huge show like that and you KNOW she would go off.

I think if she gets to a place where she realises how bad she's got then that's a start. I guess it's like with a lot of things, Azealia's gotta want to change & seek help. Once she does then everything else will fall into place. She's so articulate in recorded interviews I think if she was to do something discussing mental health it could really help. I remember last month she was about to go into it but everyone told her to stop & she deleted the tweets.
The fact she isn't seeking treatment for her Bi Polar is really a thing that needs to be looked at on her end. I hope deep down she isn't this person we see on social media recently and something mentally has flipped where she's behaving like this.

After this whole Zayn thing started, Someone from Fave Brigade (the group of stans she always texts and DMs and gives her music to first) posted some info about her mental illness and she got pissed and blocked him and other stans were telling him that he was wrong because if Azealia wanted that info out she'd put it out herself. I wonder what it was. He got shook and deleted the tweets before I could see them.
