Right now you can&#8217;t buy it anywhere but its a huge club hit and Pitchfork named it one of the 10 best songs of the year.  Three days ago I had never heard of her.  Since that time, I&#8217;ve listened to this song about 15 times and can&#8217;t get enough.  Others think so as well.  Mumford and Son&#8217;s keyboardist Ben Lovitt called the rapper&#8217;s single &#8216;mind-blowing&#8217;.<br \/>\nFlavorpill&#8217;s Judy Berman had this to say about her:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Azealia Banks is its future. In a year that brought us the confounding viral success of Kreayshawn, we\u2019re clearly hungry for women in hip-hop. But Harlem\u2019s own Banks, who topped NME\u2018s 2011 Cool List and had been an under-the-radar critical favorite for a few months before that, is far more likely to sustain the momentum for long enough to release a great album. Mark our words: 2012 will be the year of the smart, funny woman emcee.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I wholeheartedly agree is female rappers are going to put out more songs like &#8220;212.&#8221;  Please note, there are some choice words in it, so if you happen to have any kids or prudes around, you might want to listen using your headphones.
