Azealia Banks - "New Bottega" + General Discussion

[LetsGetToIt]

I know the first reaction will be go blame Azealia, but I was concerned when that recent interview of hers said they pushed back New Bottega to the spring. It seems like they were dragging their feet and I’m guessing that’s what made her want to leave.

These labels will sell you a fairy tale to get you to sign and often will keep artists benched. She would never go for that so this doesn’t surprise me.

Queen

It's not surprising this didn't work out. Azealia Banks isn't the most lucrative artist so for a major record company to sign her it would have involved a lot of caveats that relinquishes a lot of artistic control over output.

Just go independent and keep the money for herself.

Nooooo I wanted that Rankin video so badly

So this Friday? I’ll believe it when I see it on Apple Music

Sky needs to do what Azealia just did and see where that gets her.

 

[Poker Pro]

If there's anyone who can Instagram her way out of label limbo if she ever needs to, it's Azealia.

Welp...!

Nothing on Spotify.

She gets so much love from the fashion crowd.

She also looks fantastic.

New Bottega is still not out.

THE INTROOOOO

Gorgeous. This shot is a serve.

You could tell me David LaChapelle shot that and I'd believe it!

Τhe accuracy! Buy the rights to use for an EP and then get into a dispute and cancel using it Queen!

 

[Vasilios]

Seriously though!

She posted this after literally copy-pasting a section of her Parlo contract to her Instagram story that seems to indicate they cannot genuinely break contract without a deeper legal dispute. Who knows what’s exactly happening or whether this will come to pass…

 

[1991]

From what I understand, Azealia signed a one-single deal for New Bottega. She was told a contract for Fantasea II would come soon after but claims they didn’t follow through with it in the timeframe that was promised.

I would imagine the deal will dissolve once the song comes out. Independent, signed or otherwise, I just want this bop on streaming!!

 

[LetsGetToIt]

Do we know if she already filmed a video?

I’d imagine it would have been cancelled.

If it’s a one-single contract as reported I doubt Parlophone would spend money on Rankin doing a video.

 

[Mr Blonde]

ok where is the song

 

[Lander]

It’s not coming is it?
