Azealia Banks Announces Debut UK Tour

Azealia Banks is set to embark on an 11 date headline tour of the UK in September and October. The dates follow her sold out show at Heaven later this month (27th February), her NME Awards Tour appearances and also the release of her debut EP, ‘212’, on 25th March, which will be out on Polydor Records. The EP will feature the track ‘212’, as well as ‘Liquorice’ and a number of new remixes.

Last night at the Grammys, Adele’s ’21’ co-writer strongly hinted that he is working on a collaboration between Lana Del Rey and Azealia Banks. Billboard reports that Ryan Tedder, who has also written for the likes of Beyonce and Leona Lewis, let slip that he was penning a track for the ‘Video Games’ songstress and ‘212’ rapper.
