Azealia Banks delays debut album 'Broke With Expensive Taste', announces new single on Twitter

Azealia Banks' debut album has been pushed back once again. The "212" rapper announced a new tentative March 2014 release date on her official Twitter account on Jan. 1. In addition to the new date, Banks' label Interscope/Polydor has chosen a new single for the record.

When a fan, @LittleBambi1991, wrote "@AZEALIABANKS I heard ur album is coming in Marach and I'm okay with that but can we get a single or anything ;( x?" Banks finally revealed some new album details.

"the label changed their mind :) The first single is gonna be 'chasing time' and not 'soda'!!!!!,"

Banks didn't reveal when "Chasing Time" would drop, but that cut won't technically be the first single from the album. "Yung Rapunxel" was released in April 2013.

Banks' debut album Broke With Expensive Taste was originally due out in September 2012, but has faced multiple delays over the last two years. It was due "sometime in 2013," then January 2014 and now the record has tentatively been confirmed for March 2014.

Despite the delays and "procrastination" another fan accused her of, Banks promised the album would be worth the wait and that she has been working since getting signed in 2012, claiming to have roughly 30 songs completed.

Broke With Expensive Taste is set to have 13 songs on the standard version, with an additional three bonus tracks on the deluxe edition of the CD.
