Mentally disordered hip hop artist Azealia Banks is back in the headlines again — not for her music but for her bizarre rantings on social media.
2 days ago, Banks posted a ‘selfie’ of herself wearing white foundation makeup and blue eye contacts on Instagram.com. The caption read: “#whiteface.”
Many of Azealia’s followers took her latest social media antics as a joke or another desperate plea for attention. But the mainstream media took it further by analyzing Azealia’s prior rantings and attaching significant meaning to them — as if what she says really matters in the grand scheme of things.
When the backlash reached Twitter.com, Azealia responded with a racist rant:
“Lol u crackers wish I cared enough to be doing whiteface. I’m becoming the ICE PRINCESS YAAAAAAS. I use the word crAcker just as much as I use the word n*gger… Don’t get mad now… You lot are all so easily moved… DAMN… Yall really r hype. This is not white face this is my Ice Princess makeup. Calm tf down LOL… And sidebar.. When snoop did whiteface YALL all thought that sh*t was hilarious and funny right? #MISOGYNOIR at its finest!!”
And when that wasn’t enough to send her trending on Twitter, Azealia came for the gays:
“Gay media has to stop using homophobia as a means to try and victimize itself and scar the names of its opponents… Phobia would imply that I am scared of gay men or dislike them because of what they choose to do sexually… I promise, no one gives a f*ck what u decide to do in your private lives. But I also promise, that no matter how bitchy and clever you think you are.. That I will out-bitch you… But I’m just going to ignore yall from here on out cause YALL are really just reaching and looking for any reason to insert ur selves In the Azealia Banks story… The gay white media is so evil, ugly and delusional.”
In another Instagram post, Azealia wrote “Ahaa bitch. You mad cause I own everything LOL” — to which one of her followers replied, “You own everything but still dont have a hit or an album LOL.”
