Azealia Banks’s much-anticipated Slay-Z mixtape dropped unexpectedly via social media Thursday, following the release of a couple singles and an even more surprising Twitter hiatus. “Hey Guys, so i recently fired my engineer because every time i came to the studio he was under the influence and he’s spitefully leaking slay-z, but guess what,†she explained in a now-deleted tweet. “YOU GUYS GET SLAY-Z NOWWWWWW YAAAAAAAY !!!!!†Yay, indeed: The free tape, which includes Rick Ross (“Big Talkâ€) and Nina Sky (“Riotâ€), features eight tracks total. Fans will recognize the already-pushed “Big Big Beat†and “Used to Being Alone,†and can expect a diverse amalgam of dance-inducing numbers with the other six, especially “QOC.â€

As Banks said, enjoy (finally).
