I really want Azealia to release a mixtape before going to the album. Just to get her name back on the streets.

Can we just get some music

I am never a radio person. But god knows, I want to hear her on the radio so badly.

Me too. It'd be nice if she could build up some hype first before just releasing the album

Right like she needs to remind people that she's here you know? Like someone said, I wish she'd release BWET as a mixtape and Fantasea II as the debut. I feel it'd be best since we've already heard parts of BWET and Fantasea II will be all new.

Really? Ew. I really want her to get dropped and sign to another label. Interscope isn't the label an artist like Azealia should be signed to.

Another reason I don't like Interscope. Azealia deserves better.

do you think gaga really blocked azalea they are both signed to the exact same labels

Venus wasn't even her song though. Wouldn't that have been up to Paul Oakenfold?

Yep. She was featured.

Right.

But Interscope could have done a Lana x Cedric Gervais tea. It would have been great promo for her in the

states.

and now its not even on the album i can't with this luck she has its ridiculous . I feel like being apart of interscope should afford her with a plethora of artists to work with but its not happening and i don't understand.

even gaga like i don't get it
the only one who looked out for her is lana
the hate against women of color is trill

omg I wish

That's actually a superb idea. AB is versatile so she could use a lot of different people. Pharrell was too p***y for her, but someone else should help. What about Snoop Dogg? They had amazing chemistry in that video and he worked with Miley and Rita before they blew up in the US. (bad references I know)

Honestly Pharrell was perfect for her. Honestly. I can't see any other person I want backing her.

Not even Timbaland is progressive enough to legitimately take her under his wings. So Idk.

What do you guys think? Is there someone else that could like back AB?

the thing about atm jam is that there are three different versions the one on iTunes is the stripped down version because supposedly several samples in the song were not cleared ? Theres this one version i think it was the original and that version with all of the clapping and effects actually knocks its a really good song atm jam was very solid tbh even with pharells annoying vocal

[shinjiikari]

OMG I JUST REALIZED THE GOOD VERSION IS ON THE MIXTAPE YOU SENT ME but i think theres another version also theres one with like a lot of bass during pharells part

The iTunes one didn't get the original sample cleared which is why it sounds so sparse. The version I sent you is the original but unfortunately a demo (not mastered I think?) so it's not properly HQ. Not sure about the third one with more bass? I'd love to hear it if you can find it for me.

I agree that the version I sent you is much better, the beat really knocks.

I think she needs to continue as she is, working with left-wing producers who bring out the best in her and she of them. ATM Jam is a result of label interference and as a result Azealia was extremely watered down. I don't think a lot of mainstream producers will "get" her.

I mean, we'll have to hear the quality of BWET and if it's good, she needs to carry on doing her own thing, even if it means limited commercial success. Support and backing from other artists and figureheads in the industry will come when she drops the album. If it really as good as she claims, everyone will be up her ass again.

No one takes her seriously when there's no album out though. Sky was in the same position.

I love the one with all the noise effects. ATM Jam would be cute if everyone didn't sound so bored. The noises take away from Pharrell's monotone delivery + the "Old Ocean" intro gives me Fantasea era teas, with all those jazz samples she featured.

This and I think that's what freaked Azealia out. The label tampering with BWET. ATM JAM had her label written all over it. That's when I realized Interscope doesn't trust her vision or trust her ear.

Because remember when they let her do what she wanted with the mixtape and 1991. She did the videos dropped the music, and then as soon as they tried to do the BWET era we see her fighting about dropping Miss Amor/Miss Camraderie they put a tight leash on her and now we're here.

I agree but what I don't understand with that is why the f did they let Yung Rapunxel happen?! It's a great song but it's such a step backwards in terms of success. It would've worked well to get her some attention for a more commerical single but as usual they let her fade back into the background.

Yeah! With the outro and sample it's at least a 6/10 I think.
