Best New Track | Azealia Banks - Anna Wintour

Harlem's baddest bitch reemerges with clear intent on latest release 'Anna Wintour'.

Azealia Banks dropped a new track a few days ago, the absolutely banging "Anna Wintour." It's a house inspired track with a beat reminiscent of her earliest release "212" and has been produced by dance pioneer Junior Sanchez. It marks "the first formal offering" from her long-awaited second studio album Fantasea II. Azealia found a new label home last year after battling through a few frustrating years without representation - this upcoming LP will be her first release via Entertainment One. A release date has yet to be announced. In a post on Instagram, Banks stated, "I wrote this song about finding myself and finding God." She explains, "This song was written to embody the feeling felt when you connect with the universe." Check out the track and read the full statement below.

Anna Wintour - Press Shot . : I wrote this song about finding myself and finding God. Not at all specific to any religion, this song was written to embody the feeling felt when you connect with the universe. Sometime we feel afraid to take chances that will bring us out of our comfort zone’s and it’s always in those moments that God finds you and let’s you know that you are exactly in the right place .. at the right time. I am and have been since the age of 12, very inspired by @stacieorrico’s work on her self-titled debut (also executive produced by @harveymasonjr). Her ability to craft songs which teeter along the lines of Gospel/Christian Pop/Pop , is something that inspires me so much. My choice to name this song “Anna Wintour” is telling; I relate to Anna Wintour So much as a strong, powerful and larger than life soul in a petite, tidy and feminine body. While others may see Anna as intimidating , I see a woman who was born into this world with an absolute certainty about her place in it. She is a master of masters..like the life path number 11. A woman with an abundance of personal power who influences and defines the world around her. In my case, having such power can lead to self-indulgences. Meaning, i can become so consumed with a power and an ability to affect the world, that I may have forgotten or in fact - may have never learned to use my power to influence and define myself! This song is one of praise, liberation... as well as a kunty stunt. I pray you all have as much fun listening to it as I had creating it.
