Nov 1, 2012Ms. Banks is one of the smartest artists around. Using 90's-like house beats mixed up with clever rap wordplays, she accomplishes a hard-to-get feature: an EP that's strong from the funky title track all the way to "Liquorice", which celebrates men's fetishes for colored women. It's a win for Azealia!

Sep 1, 2012This is a very unique Ep. I love the style of music and the lyrics of Banks. If her debut album anything like this EP it should be a very great one. She has some great lyrics. EP album of the year. This album is a very great Hip Hop/R&B Album.

Sep 17, 2012A fresh and tasty bite that makes you want more. An exciting EP which promises a great deal of fun and delivers through every little sound. Keep an eye on her, she's going to change the game.

Jul 21, 2012Azealia Banks is an original and fresh addition to the current Hip-Hop movement. Her Rap skills are very refined, her lyrics are unique, and she has a very good singing voice on top of it. This EP is great; I definitely recommend. Download her FREE Mixtape, Fantasea, though Facebook (It's very good as well).
Favorite tracks: "212" and "Liquorice" -
Aug 6, 2013I don't really care that the EP has four tracks. They are all amazing. "1991" introduces the EP, "Van Vogue", a slower rap song comes next, Azealia's breakout hit "212" follows, and sassy "Liquorice" closes.
-
Jul 29, 2014Exuberant and sassy from start to end. An exquisite salad of perfectly-performed lyrics, good rhymes, catchy rhythms and a constant sensation of satisfaction and fantasy. A genius, a miracle.

Jun 16, 2014Azealia Banks is the most original artist of actuality. She did "1991 EP" the best of 2012 and no one can turn down her Witch-Hop. Everybody should listen all tracks and dance while learn something with the lyrics.
-
Nov 9, 2014Simple Brilliance. Azealia Banks should be the most famous in her industry. The music might not be for everyone, but the fact that she writes her own music and uses the beat so well is proof of the pudding.
-
Apr 14, 2015Azealia wins !!! This EP is amazing! Is the real rap/hip-hop.
"Van Vogue" is a iconic music, with the style hardcore eletronic hip hop, she goes away. The best EP by a female rapper ever. -
Jan 5, 2015Great first work from Azealia. She is the next step in music. All four songs, 212, 1991, Liquorice and Van Vogue have a unique sound. If you liked 212, you need to hear the rest of this EP.
-
Jul 7, 2018This is pure gold.
Amealha brings her best 90s beats with this EP. All four tracks incredible. Liquorice and Van Vogue with unique styles along with their music videos. 212 was born a hit. 1991 brings her best rap moves. -

Jun 16, 2019Exceptional & Brilliant! Everything about this EP is perfect! From the word play to the Beats.
-
Jun 16, 2012From the cover to the last second, 1991 is pure freshness. She's in her own lane and like she already said, this sh*t been hers. Favorite: Van Vogue and Liquorice.
-
Aug 12, 2012This is one of the best EPs I've heard in a while. Her rapping skills are undeniable and she's a talented singer too. Each track uses shrewd and clever lyricism and marries traditional hard-core Rap with Electronica, Dance/Pop and House. Out of this holy union comes nothing but pure excellence. Her upcoming mixtape and album should not disappoint. The '1991' EP sure didn't.
-
Aug 30, 2013Banks proves herself a fierce songstress with a talent of ingenious lyricism. The 1991 EP is bold, salacious, and superbly produced as an immaculate jewelry box of infectious gems. This ambitious debut helped pave the way for equally and rightfully acclaimed mixtape, Fantasea.

Jul 24, 2012Although on the first major publication of Azealia Banks there were only four songs, she decided to place two of them as singles. These "212" and "Liquorice" are undoubtedly compositions belonging to the hip hop mainstream, with the difference that this quarter of an hour EP has a mostly house tone, which makes it stands out from the competition - and most importantly - does it in decent style.
-
Dec 31, 2012Great debut EP from Azealia Banks, and while I'm not a massive fan of Hip-Hop I was really intrigued by this girl and there's no denying she's talented. I actually prefer both Licuorice and 1991 to the lead single 212, but all four songs are great! I'm looking forward to seeing what's next to come!

Jul 10, 20121991 is all about the bubble-popping lushness of "Van Vogue" and the hall-of-mirrors shimmer of "Liquorice." It's also about the summer, and showing more of Banks than just her breakout hit.
-
Jun 25, 2012Quick-tongued, lascivious, catchy, and delighted with itself, there hasn't been a more pleasurable record all year and probably won't be‑-not even by her.
-
Jun 20, 2012Banks continues to get away with her obnoxiousness--and while the quality of the music remains disproportionate to the hype, it does make her bratty rejection of the rap establishment feel that much more thrilling.
