Azealia Banks rocks a Alexander Wang t-shirt on the cover of Paper Magazine?s Summer Music Issue, avaible on newsstands now.
Here?s what the 21-year-old rapper had to share:
On why she wrote ?212?: ?Nobody was listening to my music, I had been dropped from [the English record label] XL, my manager dropped me. My boyfriend left me. I was starting to accept that my career was never gonna happen. So the song was just me, like, ?F**k y?all. Y?all not gonna help me? I?m gonna get it myself.??
On the music industry: ?The music industry is like a machine, It?s always going, and this new generation of artists ? me, A$AP Rocky, Rita Ora ? we?re the fuel that?s keeping it going. And once you get in that machine you?ve gotta run with it.?
On the advice label chief Jimmy Iovine gave her: ?Jimmy tells you to keep the wind behind you. The music is what?s important. These people are not gonna wanna talk to you if you don?t have music; they?re not gonna be interested. And your star is not always gonna be as bright. So you really have to seize the day.?
