Azealia Banks

CRITIC’S PICK:
Fri., Oct. 31
Azealia Banks, The Eastern — Halloween suits Azealia Banks. She brings bratty electric bravado and the sort of unpredictability that makes a show feel alive. Her bars slice, her cadence stabs, and the crowd feeds off every sudden swerve. This isn’t a tidy set but a livewire ride—sharp lines, strange generosity, and those moments that feel like being on the edge of a very good collapse. If you want polite, pick another night. She’s here to provoke and electrify. Come ready for anything and leave with an anecdote you’ll repeat to slightly horrified friends. It’s volatile and kind of perfect for the date. — Matthew Warhol
