Azealia Banks: Female Rap's lost Princess?

In this video I talk about Azealia Banks and ask if Rap culture is incomplete without her. I also talk about mental health and ask if there is a double standard between how society treats her and Kanye West.

Azealia Banks is a controversial artist who has been involved in very public clashes with other musicians and celebrities. Her career has suffered and few major labels would consider working with her in 2020. In this video I talk about why Azealia Banks has been pushed out of the music industry and ask whether or not it is fair given her talent.
