Rapper's EP and Single Experience Sales Increases 1:30PM ET January 10th, 2013 Contributor : Chris G. A Rocky Williform Company
Azealia Banks appears to be the big winner after engaging in two heated Twitter feuds over the past two weeks. The Harlem-born rapper initially went back-and-forth with the Detroit-based Angel Haze, which led to Haze releasing a diss aimed at Banks. Shortly thereafter, Perez Hilton voiced his support for Haze, which lead to Banks calling him a "messy f***ot" on Twitter.
The ensuing controversy only raised Banks' profile, it seems.
Her "1991" EP re-enters Billboard's Heatseekers Albums chart at No. 32, with an 18% sales gain and selling just under 1,000 copies in the week ending Jan. 6, according to Nielsen SoundScan. And her breakout single "212" moved 3,000 downloads last week -- up by 3%.
