i respect her struggle of bringing grandpa max martin out of his retirement home but this song sounds like a sabrina carpenter reject

I feel like this topic as to why azealia hasn't put out an album has been briefly discussed before but I think it's a bit deeper than you might think.
 
The reasoning behind the absence of any Azealia albums is because one you attach the word "album" to any project, there is instantly a higher expectation attached to it. This not only being the same mindset record labels have (i.e. Charli XCX discussed this exact same thing with her 2017 mixtapes) but also the pressure is put onto the artist as well. An album is what defines an artist and for Azealia Banks, the fact that her singular album released in 2014 was that good is why she's still being discussed in the present day. The follow up to BWET is the only thing she has going for her at this point. So, putting out throwaway mixtapes and singles that she can easily take down in the following weeks or months (and she has) over the years doesn't matter in the grand scheme of things because "it's just a mixtape" or "it's just a song". If Azealia Banks released any album with her current production "team", an album that isn't of the utmost qualityyyy, she would be deemed over and people would move on and say that she's lost it. 
 
Azealia knows deep down she can't follow up BWET with some undercooked and unfinished product, so she hasn't. The first album had a multi-million dollar production budget and it shows. I feel like she also believes that her eventual album release deserves some press, promo, whatever and she knows she can't get that being an independent artist without a team. Her attempts of signing to labels in the end is for the benefit of an album release. Knowing Azealia, she usually screws it up somewhere down the line before we can get to that but that's always been the goal. 

what will happen:
1. Azealia will somehow convince and manage to get Parlophone to spend their entire budget on single #1
2. Single #2 gets no promo thanks to there being no more budget and azealia fumes 
3. azealia attempts to collaborate with pinkpantheress (who is also signed to parlophone) but it isn't finalised (guess why) 
4. azealia somehow gets coerced into releasing a valentine's day EP instead of one of the many projects she's promised over the past decade
5. azealia gets dropped after publicly shaming the label and melting down, any future body of work that was being worked on will never see the light of day
 
rinse and repeat

Seeing as people were talking about album rankings and I'm bored AF and not doing my day job, I'll chime in  and submit myself to the pitchforks.
 
For me, I can't give it a definitive 1/2/3 etc. numbering on everything. It's more clusters of like A-Tier, B-Tier, C-Tier, etc. There's also a LOT of unreleased and leaked shit that I put on a pedestal as well - not going to list each individual track, but some of it I've organized into my own albums based on similar sound/production, or based on when it was recorded. 

A Tier/Top Faves
N1A (& some of the unreleaseds from those sessions) XCX World Heartbreak High EP Heartbreaks & Earthquakes EP Super Ultra EP Électronique (My own fan-grouping of some unreleaseds) B Tier/Much Love
TR Sucker Crash (& the outtakes/unreleaseds) Sucker Pt 2/Sucker Punch (My own grouping of the unreleaseds from near/around that time) Charli: Side B (My own grouping of the unreleaseds from near/around that time) C Tier/I Enjoy A Lot
24hr Album Vroom Vroom (& the suspected outtakes/unreleaseds from that time) "Summer Love EP"  (my own fan-grouping of some songs with a similar vibe) D Tier/It's Alright In Places
Charli (Silver Cross is GOAT though)
F Tier/I Pretend I Do Not See It
 
This is all just *my* preference/ranking and what my ears like. I have no actual judgements or flames on what others vibe to the best.

Same. One this Miss Xbox has is a good amount of range. Her voice on Sucker and on a lot of the unreleased stuff pre-TR and around TR/Sucker is so different than what we get with hyperpop Charli, and both are so different than what we got with Crash. Definitely not a typecast/pigeon-holed artist.

I'm sorry, that's actually the final version. In fact, what is missing is the demo with the full second verse.

i think its this one? https://charlixcx.neocities.org/unreleased/xcxworld/12 Die 4.mp3
its labeled as a demo but this sounds like the final version. if this is NOT it and someone has a link to the actual final version, link me plz

don’t come for me but i’ve never heard reflecting… time to go listen 
 
the PICTURES that this song paints  every time i listen i envision charli with soaked hair belting the chorus and dancing under a giant waterfall 

I’m a zephyr in a silent city strongest opening lyric EVER.

waterfall is top 3 of her unreleased and maybe even top 10/15 of all of her songs it's just heavenly
reflecting is up there too and it's so underrated
