Azealia Banks Rips Australia

I'm a bit late with this as I've been sidetracked, but I see the lovely Azealia Banks now has Australia in her sights. First she called out that complete tosser Russell Crowe, but now she calls out the whole of Australia. She's right of course, but Australians hate being busted.

Azealia Banks in the News Again

I'm a big fan of Azealia Banks music, not really interested in her sex tape; but I see she's apparently ended a relationship over it. Maybe someone could clue me in on what this NFT tech is, now I'm definitely starting to feel old.

Azealia Banks Hints at Suicide

Azealia Banks seems to be having some serious issues with her talk of ending it all. I hope someone close to her can get her the help she needs.

Azealia Banks Disses Sweden

Azealia Banks has found out the truth about Sweden; the country is racist and lives so far up its own arse they can't find daylight. That's the nub of it I reckon. The thing that is most annoying about Sweden is their attitude. They think they're always right and that everyone should listen to them. Hang on though, they were neutral during WWII but were happy to take German money. Hmm? They're monumental hypocrites, the best example right now being that grandstanding publicity seeker Greta Thunberg (or is that her parents?). I am always amused by Ms Banks antics, she's rarely wrong but certainly will not win any points for diplomacy.

The Musk Prayer

Read this brilliant Musk prayer following the revelation just announced that Elon Musk has invented the subway. Not the sandwich, the underground people conveyor. All hail Musk. I wonder if he's apologised to Azealia Banks yet, my guess is he hasn't.

Our Musk in heaven, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as on mars. Give us today our daily feed. Forgive us our incredulity as we forgive those who still don't believe you. Save us from climate change. For the space,the power, and the glory are yours now and for ever. Amen.

Azealia Banks Right - Elon Musk

Maybe all those people who dump on Azealia Banks owe her an apology. A few weeks ago she reported seeing Elon Musk taking drugs. Well, even though this latest episode isn't illegal, here we have Musk smoking marijuana. Now the status of SpaceX in relation to Air Force contracts is under investigation:

Azealia Banks Busts Elon Musk

Hah, so there you have it. According to Azealia Banks, Elon Musk doesn't have the funding to go private. She knows this as she's been in his house waiting to do work with Grimes, and couldn't help but overhear Musk scrambling to recover from his tweet on the subject.

Check this out: https://www.businessinsider.com.au/azealia-banks-claims-to-be-at-elon-musks-house-as-he-sought-investors-2018-8?r=US&IR=T

This should trigger an investigation into Musk's business affairs and the reason behind his tweet.

Rap Music All Good

In late September through to early October this year I drove just over 9,000 kms (5,592 mls) around the US. A lot of that time I had the radio on in the car. So I think I can give a fairly accurate description of what I endured. Most of the music was rubbish.

Once out into the heartland and away from the densely populated areas, the spectrum was dominated by rock stations playing the same old selection, Poison, AC/DC, Poison, you get the idea. And then when out in the middle of nowhere and beyond range you can turn to Sirius, satellite radio. The amount of time you can listen to Sirius is limited because if you listen too long your head explodes.

The cultural heart of music in the US appears to be Rap music. The stations are funny, entertaining, and the music is genuinely good. Everything else you can forget. So when in range I'd just turn to any Rap music station and leave it there.

That said, I didn't hear any Azealia Banks. Maybe she needs to think more mainstream and stop trying to upset Russell Crowe, that pathetic non-Australian, actually a New Zealander practically denying being one and pretending to be Australian. It was heartening to see she quickly figured this out recently and tried to discipline him. She should have had the presence of mind to point out that musically he has no talent at all. Maybe she did, I don't know, but all Kiwis everywhere should salute her for confronting Mr Crowe.

Azealia Banks Picks On Russell Crowe

You've got to laugh, Azealia Banks noticed Russell Crowe is over the hill and the biggest dipstick in Hollywood. Read about it here:-

Ms Banks, you could have called him on claiming to be an Australian, when in fact he's a New Zealander. Australia won't have him, which sucks for us Kiwis. I've tried to swap a live Russell Crowe for the body of Peter Brock, but no Aussie will look at the deal. C'mon Aussies, you get a live Russell Crowe for the corpse of a motor racing legend, what is there to lose?

Azealia Banks on Lemonade

I like Azealia Banks. I think she's very talented. Recently she's come in for a bit of stick over her attack on Beyonce's visual album Lemonade.

It appears obvious to me that Beyonce has borrowed Banks's style and imagery in her recent work. No doubt about it as far as I'm concerned.

It reminds me that Meghan Trainor's video for All About That Bass had the same visual style as the much earlier Cameo Lover by Kimbra.

File this under 'ideas are stolen all the time.'

Azealia Banks On Cultural Smudging

Interesting interview here of Azealia Banks. She rips into Iggy Azalea which is funny in itself, but also; she very intelligently describes cultural smudging. Another way of looking at it would be to describe cultural appropriation.

Her music is worth checking out. It's beautiful, confronting, brilliant. The interview is quite long, give it a chance though, you have to just listen to how the interview unfolds. The DJ on the mic, wow he's a good interviewer, they should teach his technique at broadcasting school.

But will her career implode or stall? I hope not, she's good.
