Broke with Expensive Taste is the debut studio album by American rapper Azealia Banks, released on November 7, 2014. In 2011, Banks started working on the album despite not having signed to a record label at that time. A year later, she signed a contract deal with Interscope and Polydor Records to work on the album. However, she felt dissatisfied with the labels' representatives and consequently, she ended the contract with the labels in July 2014 and signed to Prospect Park. After being delayed for over two years, Broke with Expensive Taste was released by Banks herself and Prospect Park via Caroline Records without any prior announcements. Broke with Expensive Taste was described as a hip house and dance-pop record which incorporates elements from a wide range of genres, including hardcore punk, punk, trance, bounce, R&B and UK garage. The album received widespread critical acclaim from music critics, who praised Banks' musical diversity and opined that the album was "worth the wait"...
