aw I was hoping this would continue the trend of ppl reviving this thread to say "I can't believe no one's talking about Azealia Banks here"

RT @AZEALIABANKS Just met Samantha Cameron... She told me she loves 212...... *mind blown*
i can't remember where i read this but "i guess that cunt went to eton" ftw

The press was full of smug "has Samantha Cameron listened to the lyrics?" pieces today. I doubt she's even listened to the song.
― Matt DC, Tuesday, 18 September 2012 21:24 (eleven years ago) link
I know, it's really annoying me that even the Guardian etc is covering this, it's so obviously a "HEY DID YOU KNOW Dave has a fucking bike?" type story.

Before anyone feels the need to point it out, I know she once hung out with Massive Attack and Tricky in Bristol.
― Matt DC, Tuesday, 18 September 2012 21:31 (eleven years ago) link
even if she does like azealia she's still married to david cameron which fairly nullifies any suggestion that she has good taste in anything.

crikey. but the mixtape was free so i dont quite get his beef there. although yeah hes every right to be pissed at the way the single has been handled. mind you.. 25 grand he's been offered. 25 grand, name on the sleeve and the artwork and the itunes etc, plus all that exposure. shit i might take that.

that's the thing, making an official single off a mixtape track kind of defeats the point of a mixtape (at least in the sense of a rap mixtape where the beats/samples aren't cleared).

A lotta ONTD xposts up in this piece lately...
― Cousin Slappy, Tuesday, 25 September 2012 22:03 (eleven years ago) link
i was initially under the impression it was anything but this... like every almost (every?) track was appropriated from within the fairly close rbma + nyc bass scenes - like nick hook / lunice / machine drum / munchi have all hung out with each other - i'd assumed one of them was doing most of the arranging on the album and had requested use of the tracks from the others, i guess not?
...what's ONTD
― fauxmarc, Tuesday, 25 September 2012 22:04 (eleven years ago) link
i thought it was interesting and didn't want to discuss on twitter.

Meh. Kind of weird to see Azealia on the receiving end of drama over nothing tho.
― Cap'n Hug-a-Thug (The Reverend), Tuesday, 25 September 2012 23:42 (eleven years ago) link
dude's throwing a tantrum bcz she illegally rapped over his illegal re-edit of Montell Jordan and offered him money for it, is that's what's happening?
― ┐(´ー`)┌ (sic), Wednesday, 26 September 2012 00:14 (eleven years ago) link
illegal editing?
― ogmor, Wednesday, 26 September 2012 00:19 (eleven years ago) link
it's gonna be the next proper single that's teh main beef

― piscesx, Wednesday, 26 September 2012 00:32 (eleven years ago) link
the main beef is that they announced it as real single before asking him or offering him money
but fuxache it's an edit, if her ppl have cleared the sample (!) then 25k and an artist credit is probably more than he'd get on a producer royalty after paying Jordan
― ┐(´ー`)┌ (sic), Wednesday, 26 September 2012 01:33 (eleven years ago) link
Of course, the Montell song is, in turn, a sample:

aka it's an Azealia Banks song; everything she's done just makes me want to hear the original
― cake-like Lady Gaga (DJP), Wednesday, 26 September 2012 20:57 (eleven years ago) link
oh makes sense, he originally designed it as a dance floor edit & shes rapping over his edit. lmao.

he certainly makes a much better case in that statement than he did on twitter

I feel extremely bad for Montell Jordan, Claudja Berry and all of the people at Interscope and Polydor who were very helpful in trying to make a solution to this shit, but if you get disrespected 11 times over a course of a couple of months -more than half being in one day- things will get extremely difficult.

11 times.
