Azealia Banks: Gamma (ILI or SEE), or Alpha (SEI or ILE); or SLE-Se or SLI

Broke With Expensive Taste [Prospect Park, 2014]
The articulation of our most musical young rapper is crystalline without flaunting its precision. Her singing rolls full and easy from somewhere in her torso. The grain of her voice is both pretty and sensual. And unlike her male counterparts she doesn't equate sex with power--there's verbal as well as vocal evidence that she feels it elsewhere than her genitalia. That said, she does seem to equate rapping with power--her troubles are the usual star-time overindulgences, and just about every terrific song here is a boast one way or another. Yet just about every song is a serious pleasure regardless. Here's hoping that when she achieves the security she deserves, she uses her IQ for something more useful than battling a melanin-deprived rival who admits more vulnerabilities than she does. A

1991 [Interscope EP, 2012]
Four tracks, 14 minutes of music, topped inevitably by "212" (and if you're not among the video's 20 million hits, succumb now). All of said songs top this eye-on-the-prize Harlemite's many other YouTube offerings, some of which might in turn sound dandy mixed into the mixtape and official album we are assured will soon-come. One might bitch about the chopped-and-screwed monologue that brings total time to 16 minutes, only it's funnier and more pointed than the Clyde Smith skits it bites from Ghostface. So I hope this is the dancey hip-hop Nicki Minaj's haters claim to miss and know full well it's too effing dancey for 'em--not to mention too virtuosic, beatwise, layered, less-is-more, and much. Quick-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. A

IEI contact subtype

edit: she's rough around the edges probably owing to her difficult childhood. In her music themes of sexual power, social hierarchies, force, and dynamic emotions are all consistent with IEI

**Adam Strange** · 06-03-2018, 02:38 AM

She looks SEE to me.

Not only is she beautiful (Gamma SF), but she's clearly nuts in a very attractive way. Seems like Activity-Party Animal to me....

If not SEE, then possibly a very "Se" ESI-Se.

*EDIT* She has a "lush" beauty that IEI's do not.

**nefnaf** · 06-03-2018, 02:47 AM

Gamma doesn't have a monopoly on physical beauty lol.

She has a tendency of scuttling business deals over relatively petty personal differences - indicates

in 4th position. SEE would suck it up for the sake of making $$$

I know nothing about her beyond watching her "212" video, so I can't speak to that part. But if she "scuttles business deals over petty personal differences", that seems 4D Fi to me, which agrees with your analysis, @nefnaf.

And I agree that Gamma doesn't have a monopoly on physical beauty. I think every quadra has beauties in it. It's just that the kind of beauty is specific to each given quadra.

Here, for example, is an Alpha beauty: https://i.imgur.com/KrBzvKR.jpg
Here is a typically Beta beauty: https://i.imgur.com/2wgjlXV.gifv
Here is a typically Gamma beauty (on the right): https://i.imgur.com/cwSjvXJ.jpg
and here is a typical Delta beauty: https://i.imgur.com/01SPmfv.jpg

Actually, I should post pics of an example of a woman of every type, not just representatives of the quadras. I can include sub-types in many cases.

Here is an article with background on some of her business dealings. Despite her musical talents she's not very business-savvy.

can't say I approve of typing anyone based purely on a music video, or any scripted performance for that matter. I would never suggest a type for someone without at least checking out one or two unscripted interviews. When performing someone can easily come across like an extravert, while actually being a clear introvert per interviews. Other way around is also possible.

As for physical looks, I wouldn't say people look similar to their own quadra so much as their own temperament. Even then, intratype variation is huge.

**niffer** · 06-03-2018, 06:02 AM

I guess she does kinda look like a black Fiona Apple.

The article you linked does make her sound very IEI @nefnaf

**niffer** · 06-03-2018, 06:21 AM

I can also say her “Ice Princess” video is one of the more interesting things I’ve seen recently. LOL

**Antennae** · 06-03-2018, 11:25 AM

the most glaringly obvious Se-SEE

please listen to this before being wrong:

I don't agree with this.

SEEs don't act particularly logically and I've seen how a few of them behave in business, and the one I am thinking of had trouble not telling people to fuck off when she thought they were just stupid even if it was in her interest to be nice since she owned the business and telling customers to get lost just because they annoy you isn't the best policy if you wanna make money.

**idontgiveaf** · 06-05-2018, 02:21 PM

She's not SEE.. She didn't pass my SEE standards. I'm not like her. She might be IEI

She's a IEI-creative drama queen, she focuses more on her values unlike more flexible ESFx who actually have the capacity to be quite bitchy.

They are dry in their trolling, yet energetic.

VI isn't deterministic and really there's no way people in entertainment can easily succeed without emulating contactors.

Same.

**Pookie** · 06-18-2018, 02:06 AM

Almost every type suggested. Nice.

**Bertrand** · 06-18-2018, 02:10 AM

that's how you know you made it

**Delilah** · 06-20-2018, 06:58 AM

In a few pics she looked EIE imo, yet in some others she looked differently. She is difficult to type.

**Hays** · 06-20-2018, 07:55 AM

Fi creative?

**suedehead** · 06-21-2018, 10:37 AM

SLE

**EUDAEMONIUM** · 08-13-2021, 03:19 PM

I've always saw her as an SLE, but there's still a chance that she is a EIE.

I think she has mental problems though, she definitely has some unresolved issues to work out.

Lol definitely not SLE. She's all bark and no bite.

Committing violence isn't a requirement to be an SLE type. If that's what you mean.

I'm talking about her affect mostly.

**qaz00** · 08-13-2021, 04:22 PM

SEE

**roger557** · 08-13-2021, 04:23 PM

LSE?

Yeah she doesn't really say anything with any earnestness. That's why even when she says outrageous shit its hard to take it seriously.
@qaz00 she has had significant self destructive relationship issues in her life. While I don't think its impossible for an Fi creative to be self destructive, her antics make it hard to believe she is one.

check out this piece on her:
