Azealia Banks has parted ways from Lady Gaga's management company - the third manager she has ditched since November 2011.

Banks signed up with Troy Carter, who clearly knows a thing or two about turning a female artist into an international megastar, in April this year. Shortly after, she cancelled the majority of her festival appearances in order to finish recording her debut album.

Banks spoke of her excitement at the signing with Carter earlier this year, suggesting she was looking forward to having money to back her career. "A whole new set of resources to take advantage of," she tweeted at the time. "We're gonna vamp this up and make it official... No more ghetto mixes and closet recording... I have a budget now!"

However, it seems things have not worked out with Gaga's management and the '212' is said to have appointed boyfriend Dave Holmes as her latest manager. Holmes is also the manager of Coldplay.
