Aquababe - Azealia Banks

This is something interesting.  Azealia Banks isn't another Nicki Minaj carbon copy.  She raps her own way, and its uniqueness is what makes it beautiful.  "Aquababe" is aggressive, but half of the appeal comes from those siren calls and whale noises echoing in the background.  Think of it as rap meets the deep of the oceans.  You've got the sounds of the underwater meeting the sounds of the streets.  And then Azealia comes in.  In "Aquababe" she reminds me of the old-school female rappers, not the new ones who snort theatrics like it's cocaine.  I guarantee she's like nothing you've heard before.  Too good for words, simply put.
