NY Post: It’s one Azealia versus another.
Throughout her career, Azealia Banks has proven herself quite adept at starting beefs. Her latest target: Iggy Azalea.
As Gawker points out, the Harlem-born rapper, 23, took to Twitter on Wednesday to slam the “Fancy” emcee, 24, for only caring about black culture when it benefits her.
Azalea, who seemed to think Banks was referring to Michael Brown, not Eric Garner, responded hours later, saying that “trolling” her wasn’t helping any. The rapper also advised her fans to speak out about things they saw as unjust and linked to a Bustle — yes, that Bustle — article about “productive ways” to help.
Azalea is the latest musical figure whom Banks, who just released her debut studio album last month, has trashed on Twitter over the last few years. Previously she’s feuded with T.I., Angel Haze, Pharrell, Lily Allen and Diplo, just to name a handful.
Okay, wow. That was exhausting. I got so many problems with this Azaelia Banks chick cause no one knows who the hell she is, but first I just wanna say that if you don't think some of the shit she said is absolutely hilarious, then you're lying and you're wrong. Right off the bat calling her Igloo Australia cracked me up. Don't really know why. Maybe because it's such a lame insult that it turned out to be hilarious. And then basically saying if that a white chick wants to fuck black dudes, she has to be publicly supportive of rioting in the streets. And there is 200% chance I start using the jar of piss insult on people. "Oh you don't like me? I'll piss in a jar, add mayo and eggs and throw it at your head. How do you like that?" And seriously media? Stop putting Igloo in the same category as Nicki. C'mon.
As funny as that stuff was, this chick definitely pisses me off. And it's mainly because I have no idea who she is. I'm not even a huge fan of Iggy. Fancy is my shit, but she gets on my nerves a little bit. Just gets a lot of credit for not being that great. That being said, she has no reason to get attacked by this chick just for not tweeting about Ferguson. Hey Azaelia, did it ever cross your mind that she might just be a white "rapper" and not actually trying to be black? Or that she might just have a different opinion? Or God forbid, just flat out doesn't care?! I mean, I'm sick of the Ferguson shit. Maybe she is too. Plus she's from Australia. Kinda pissed Iggy took the high road cuz I wanted to see an epic fight, but I did think it was hilarious that she threw in the subtle "YOUR government" since she's not actually from the U.S. and probably not even a citizen yet. "Oh you have problems in Ferguson, Missouri? Sucks. I'm from Australia and don't really care. Trying to shake this fear of 5 pound spiders and poisonous snakes that I have." I guess that could sound ignorant. Just ignoring other countries' problems. But hey, it's what George Washington wanted. At least someone still respects the founding fathers these days. Even if they are from Australia.
