Azealia Banks covers The Strokes

Potty-mouthed Harlem rapper Azealia Banks has done her thing with The Strokes 'Barely Legal' taken from the groups iconic 2001 debut Is This It.

The track was produced by Lindbergh Palace and features Banks singing in place of her usual spitfire rap style.

Banks has also announced that her new single titled 'Yung Rapunzel' – produced by Lil Internet – will be out on March 26 ahead of her much anticipated debut album which surely must arrive later this year.

Check out the track below.

Banks rather controversially featured in a recent Hot Press survey. Following her Twitter spat with Baauer – whose 'Harlem Shake' track she covered – where she called him a "Faggot", we asked our readers:

Was Azealia wrong to use the word "Faggot"?
Does It make you less likely to go to a gig or buy a product associated with her?
Have you yourself ever been the subject of homophobic and/or racist abuse?

52.4% said that she was wrong to use the word "Faggot". 42.9% said that she wasn't wrong to use it, with the remaining 4.8% sitting on the fence.

64% said they would still buy her music and go to her shows despite her use of the word, with 26% swinging the other way. Again there were quite a few maybes, 10% in total who remained undecided on the issue.

Most interestingly perhaps in that 41% of voters have said that they have been on the receiving end of homophobic and/or racist abuse.
