Interview with Liam

Speaking of which...

Azaelia Banks performed Firestarter WITH the Prodigy back in the day in Sydney (9-3-2013) at least according to this setlist:

and according to this web article:

I have searched for a video clip of that performance from the web to "judge" how it went, but so far, I haven't been lucky. This is a bit odd because in 2013, there should have been numerous people with their cellies up in the air to catch that rare moment.

I am not saying that quest artists should be covering Firestarter or any other Prodigy track on their shows on a regular basis, but now and then, it would be interesting if they would ask their singer pals to visit their gigs and give their best shot on some of the tracks, just to give the tracks a new boost or angle. So, in that sense, I thought it was an interesting idea for them to ask Miss Banks to cover their tune.

she was just bouncing about on stage , screamed the odd bit in the mic

back when she was sane and didnt destroy her career with public racist meltdowns

cocaines a helluva drug

Thanks for the comment!

I did not dig up the published information on her. But now you got me interested and yes, she seems to be quite "a darling" according to Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Azealia_Banks

Like it is with the controversial comments from Crispian Mills of Kula Shaker, I am not that much bothered by how those celebs behave outside the stage. I am just keen to know if the possible quest artists' performance talent and attitude fit with the soundwall of The Prodigy. With actor Juliette Lewis, one might think all sorts of things have happened in her personal life that cannot stand the light of day, but OMG, her voice fits so WELL for those AONO tracks! Too bad she has never been invited to hop on stage with the guys!

But as you described descriptively, Miss Banks's contribution was not that relevant on that day in Sydney. I can rest my case and move from searching the missing video clip to do something much more constructive. So thanks tonyjaa again!

after quite a long search I managed to finally find a video from that performance

Thanks.. So, Keef did the all the work in vocals as usual. Banks just screamed some backing lines here and there. Local pub has more gifted singers. I did not miss much not being there then.
