[ANNA WINTOUR] SUPPORT TALENT- SUPPORT AZEALIA BANKS

Rapper and singer from Harlem Azealia Banks, also known for her song “212” just dropped a single that is bound to blow up, despite everyone trying to talk down on her name. Azealia has always been one to not keep quiet when it comes to her mouth, which is why she has received a large amount of backlash. But despite her reputation, it doesn’t stop her from releasing incredible music.

Last night on April 6th, 2018 she released her new single, “Anna Wintour” off her forthcoming Fantasea II project to show the world that if people want to judge her, they should judge her talent and not stage persona.

Listen to it here:

Produced by Junior Sanchez, it includes an 80s themed beat and production. It takes one back while putting a modern spin on it. The track includes incredible verses where she takes a break to belt the chorus.

Not only is she an incredible rapper her voice has an extreme vocal range as she sings:

“Now I feel in love, babe
I really know that your love is enough and I’m
So lucky you found me in the day I needed love
Now I feel in love, babe, everywhere you are
Now I feel in love, babe
I really know that your love is enough and I’m
So lucky you found me in the day I needed love
Now I feel in love, babe, I feel it, feel it, feel it”

The song also includes some of her screaming verses that have been used on her previous track, “Ice Princess.” The song includes rap, pop, and elements of punk- no one can do it like Azealia does it.

The best lyrics come from her second verse as she yells:

“Your dude came to rock for me, hot body, yes, I got it, got it
All of the girls are dance floor queens until I put my Blahniks on it Move and make it hot for me, hot rod, oh yes, I’ll ride it, ride it Dance for me, get naughty, he wild out for these expensive options”

No one can ignore the pure creative genius of this song, even her haters. Azealia has gone ghost for the past few years, not receiving a lot of radio hits but her true fans know that she has the capability to write a song like this. No one can ignore this song, and despite her negative image I truly believe this song has to blow up. She’s getting a second chance in the industry, I can’t wait for her to put all the hate to rest.

[INVASION OF PRIVACY] CARDI B PROMOTED THE WORST SONGS ON HER ALBUM

Today at 12 am Cardi B dropped her debut album Invasion of Privacy and it made everyone wonder why she promoted the absolute worst songs on her album. She released “Be Careful” which featured her trying to sing on the chorus which was a complete failure. Then she promoted “Drip” featuring the Migos and it was one of the worst songs I have ever heard.

But Invasion of Privacy slaps you in the face with her true talent. She must have only promoted the worst songs on the album to get bad publicity, or she is extremely misguided. The album starts off with “Get Up 10” which should have been promoted as a single. The song shows the story of her struggle and is packed with great lines like, “Stunt on these bitches out of mothafuckin’ spite/Ain’t no runnin’ up on me, went from nothin’ to glory/I ain’t tellin’ ya to do it, I’m just tellin’ my story.” It’s a fantastic start to the album. This is truly my favorite song from the album.

Listen to the best track on the album here:

“Bickenhead” is a great track that shows a different side to her but works perfectly. The beat fits nicely with the song and is definitely a song one can dance to. This is also a highlight track that centers around “nasty ass b*tches” that everyone can relate to.

“Best Life” features Chance the Rapper, which seems like an awkward combination but gives the album a more chill feel that marks the shift in the album. I think it is kind of corny to put internet slang in a song, by saying “L and Ms” but its still very good. As she says, “I’m my own competition, I’m competin’ with myself.” I could really see this song on the radio as a great summer jam.

“I Like It” is a great remix of the classic song, it could be compared to Nicki Minaj’s “Anaconda.” She has great verses in this song, which truly showcases her talent and versatility that we didn’t even know she had this early in her career. I would say that the feature by Bad Bunny doesn’t quite fit the feel of the song, but the addition of Spanish helps this song get to the next level.

“Ring” featuring Kehlani is not the best track but Kehlani really shines. It’s fun as hell. The track after is entitled, “Money Bag” where she flaunts all her money she has now. It’s a strong track and the chorus really brings it all together. I didn’t think she could write a good chorus since the one on, “Be Careful” was painful to listen to. The next track is the famous “Bartier Cardi.” It then transitions to “She Bad” featuring YG. The track reminds me of Big Sean’s “Dance A$$.” The next track, “Thru Your Phone” featuring Ali Tamposi is an another diss track for her fiance Offset- damn she really needs to break up with him? The track also includes some of the best lyrics on the album,

“All I can see is you and her in different scenarios
Beyoncé on my stereo, “Resentment” on repeat
I’ma make a bowl of cereal with a teaspoon of bleach
Serve it to you like, “Here you go, nigga, bon appétit”
Look did you give it to her raw? You love her or nah?
You risk your whole home for a hoe from the bar?
You really want them hoes? You can have them bitches
You don’t even cheat with no badder bitches
This shit is eatin’ me, you sleepin’ peacefully
Gettin’ more mad at you, thinkin’ ’bout stabbing you
Don’t even know that you this close to dyin’
You gon’ wake up like, “Why you got an attitude?”

The album then ends with “I Do” featuring the one and only SZA. The track centers around being an independent woman who doesn’t need a man. SZA adds a great chorus that emits swag. Overall the album can be summed up with the lyrics from this song, “My little 15 minutes lasted long as hell, huh?”

Overall Cardi B purposely promoted the worst songs on the album to create bad buzz around her name. She really killed us all with this album and it has so many stand-out tracks that I can predict are going to be the song of the summer. Cardi B is here to stay even though she might not have the best judgment when it comes to picking singles.

[NEW VIDEO-‘BARTIER CARDI’] CARDI GOT RICH THEY UPSET

“YOUR BITCH WANNA PARTY WITH CARDI

CARTIER BARDI IN A ‘RAI

DIAMONDS ALL OVER MY BODY

SHININ’ ALL OVER MY BODY

CARDI GOT YOUR BITCH ON MOLLY”

The Bartier Cardi” music video just dropped on April 2nd, 2018 and it is everything you hoped for. Although fans are saying that the concept is confusing, it is easy to figure out once you do some digging.

Check out the video here:

The video shows a different side to Cardi. In the video, she isn’t showing her bubbly personality but instead one that is more serious and sexy. The first clip shows her in a pin-up red outfit on a television show that sends you back to a time where women were heavily sexualized for male’s enjoyment. But instead of being an object, she is shown to be a powerful woman. Then there are various shots of women in power getting money. The video centers around women running the show while men sit there and are hypnotized by them. The music video has a lot of outfit changes which are insanely beautiful. Then she is shown on the hood of a car in a huge fur coat then transitions to her in the car with her finance, Offset from the group Migos. She is shown in a crystal dress while kissing Offest, which gives the video a sexy feel. 21 Savage makes an appearance in the video and is shown being hypnotized by the women in the video. The next scene she is shown in a white dress killing her verse.

Overall this video can be summed up with her own lyrics, “Cardi got rich, they upset, yeah.”
