For a little while, Azealia Banks had it all: she was a critically acclaimed up-and-coming rapper, she was hot, her song “212” was one of the hottest jams of 2012 (and it still remains my JAM), and she was bitchy-ass Karl Largerfield’s muse, performing at Chanel shows and shit. Then she started acting like a crazy bitch, didn’t release anymore music, and became a never-was before she could even become a has-been.
Well, Banks is back on the scene again, but it’s not so much for her music as it is for her ridiculous attempts at trying to constantly feud with Iggy Azalea. Banks has nothing but extreme hate for Iggy who she calls “Igloo Azalea” (an attempted diss about Iggy being white), so instead of working on her own career, she just sits around ranting about Iggy’s to anyone who will listen. Yeah, cool story, bitch.
Here’s the thing: I think “212” is one of the best songs by a female rapper EVER (and I know my female rappers) and I actually think it’s better than all of Iggy’s songs (don’t get me wrong, I like Iggy, she has a ton of quality jams, but yeah, I prefer Banks’ voice and “212” is just everything. It’s amazing), so if Banks put half as much effort into making more sweet jams as she did into obsessing over Iggy’s giant white ass, maybe people would give a fuck about her opinion. But right now, they do not.
Banks allegedly did a radio interview?recently (I say allegedly because I don’t 100% believe it wasn’t just her making insane podcasts from her grandma’s basement while wearing a tin foil hat so aliens can’t read her brain and steal her mermaid powers), and had a lot of dumbass racially charged shit to say about Iggy’s Grammy nominations:
I feel like in this country, whenever it comes to our things, like black issues or black politics or black music or whatever, there’s always this undercurrent of kinda like a ‘fuck you.’ That Iggy Azalea shit isn’t better than any fucking black girl that’s rapping today…The Grammys are supposed to be accolades of artistic excellence. Iggy Azalea is not excellent.
She continued to rant about black people and the Grammys and how the Grammy reject black people, and I’m just sitting here like: Has this bitch not heard of Beyonc??! Because Beyonc? just became the most Grammy nominated female of ALL TIME! And she stole the crown from Tina fucking Turner, who is also black.
Has bitch never heard of Jay Z, Kanye West, still black Michael Jackson, Quincy Jones, Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey (she’s half black), Usher, Aretha Franklin, Stevie Wonder, Alicia Keys, Janet Jackson, Rihanna, or any of the other black people who have made the Grammys (and the?music industry)?their bitch over the years?!
Iggy Azalea being nominated for a fucking Grammy isn’t racist, but you giving a fuck that she’s white and she raps is.
Iggy responded to Banks via Twitter and dropped some serious truth bombs:
There are many black artists succeeding in all genres. The reason you haven’t is because of your piss poor attitude…your inability to?be responsible for your own mistakes, bullying others, the inability to be humble or have self control.
you created your own unfortunate situation by being a bigot and don’t have the mental capacity to realize yet. Probably never will.
Ohhhhh snap, get it, Iggy!
Of course, Banks had to respond via Twitter and make an even bigger, bigoted ass out of herself:
Dear LordT (sic), I Pray for this Clueless White Girl…None?this will make sense to her until she herself has children with a black man and has to deal with having black children in America.
Itchy Areola, you are so stupid and selfish to make any of this about yourself in particular.
She then posted a pic (she tagged Iggy in it) of a minstrel (a white person playing music while wearing black face).
Selfish to make this about yourself?! You were talking about her! You never fucking stop talking about her! Azealia Banks, you need to calm the fuck down and get over Iggy Azaela.

Bitch you dont know female rap artists if you think 212 is one of the greatest rap songs from one. Lol. Other than that we see you team Iggy. That bitch is weak. Ill give it to Azaelia. She made some funny ass disses on twitter. Including on TI and Action Bronson. You need to do an update. Azaelia Banks is a hating as bitch too but Iggy is just plain wack, a frontin ass Aussie, and is definitely only hot right now cuz she’s a white bitch that loves to shake her ass in a genre that is predominately full of black bitches shaking they ass.
