Azealia Banks Calls Off Retirement; Releases New Spanish Rap Single ‘Nirvana’

Azealia Banks is a talented artist but even more than that, she’s highly unpredictable.

The Harlem rapper and singer has had a roller-coaster career already and in December, 2019, she announced that she was retiring from music. This came after years of clues that she doesn’t want to continue her music career any longer. “Azealia Banks is leaving the forest so you tree a*s b*tches can fall in silence,” she said while taking shots at some of the other female artists today like Iggy Azalea and Tinashe.

But over the last few days, Banks has been teasing new music again, including a Spanish song that she said will be out soon. Some fans were making fn of her flip-flop while others were celebrating the return.

Tonight, she has dropped the full, studio version of the track titled ‘Nirvana’ where she’s rapping in Spanish fluently over a Drill-influenced instrumental. She also infuses some English lyrics towards the end. Listen to it below.
