With every move Azealia Banks makes you start to realize that she's the type of polarizing figure who is impossible to ignore.
Love or hate her it doesn't matter. Because when she talks about dating white men, black artists selling out, feuds with T.I. and Iggy Azalea, poses for Playboy or portrays a frozen Medusa in her new music video for "Ice Princess," Banks is maybe the most interesting/entertaining artist in the business.
She lands on the latest cover of Billboard. In her interview with the publication she talks about five things she really wants including slipping under the sheets with the President of America.
Five Things Azealia Banks Really Wants
1. She Wants Control of Her Life
"There was a point where I was questioning everything," Banks admits. "Am I brushing my teeth at the wrong time? Am I drinking too much? Smoking too much weed? What have I done?'" But that's changed now: "I don't turn to anyone for advice. I do what I want."
2. She Wouldn't Mind Horizontally Hailing the Commander-In-Chief
The rapper admits she has a crush on Barack Obama. "He’s so fine. Those big-ass white teeth and ears hanging off his head? I’m like, ‘Oh my god, I want to fuck the president.'"
3. But She Really Wants to Meet a Meet a Nice Guy
While Banks says she's known to sleep with her female friends and bodyguards (“I love security guards. They’re these big meathead bald white guys with blue eyes"), she's looking for something more permanent: "I want a really smart man, who has a lot of silly jokes and stuff. I have to tone it down if I want to get that," she admits.
4. She Wants to Be Recognized in Her Lifetime
"Celebrities are celebrated, and I don’t think I’m celebrated,” Banks says. “But maybe one day. It would be nice. I just don’t want to be forgotten about while I’m still alive.”
5. She Wants to Write a Fable About Herself
And she's already deep into it. Banks says she listens to the audiobook of Ralph Waldo Emerson’s Self-Reliance and then wakes up at 3 a.m. to drink red wine and work on her passion project: a book that will tell "the fable of Azealia Banks." She adds: "I work during witching hours, 3 a.m., 4 a.m., when the dead writers, the failed writers and the failed musicians who are dead are roaming around.”
