About two and a half years ago, GlobalGrind did its first write-up about Azealia Banks. It came after Kanye West co-signed the rapper’s breakout single, “212.”

From that point on, Banks became one of the artists that we covered constantly, through the good times and the many, many, many bad times.

But yesterday, Azealia Banks finally released her oft-delayed debut album, Broke with Expensive Taste. Amazingly, one of the songs on the album was “212,” Azalea’s breakout single, which was released on December 6th, 2011.

Folks on social media were quick to point out that Broke with Expensive Taste came out 1,066 days after “212” dropped.

To put it all in perspective, let’s look at pop culture events that happened in between those 1,066 days.

Kim Kardashian officially divorced Kris Humphries (521 days ago).

Blue Ivy Carter was born (1,035 days ago).

 North West was born (510 days ago).
