Iggy Azalea ‘Doesn’t Care About Black People’ According To Azealia Banks


You might hear about Iggy Azalea embroiled in more public fights, but scrappy New York-born rapper Azealia Banks’ quarrels are innumerable — even if she hasn’t quite snagged Iggy’s pop crossover status to make every single one headline news.

Azealia’s newest slam on the other Azalea is related to the Eric Garner decision — something that she saw a pretty heavy disconnect between when it came to Iggy’s response to the incident and Banks calls Azalea’s appropriation of black culture.

Bank’s tirade against Iggy didn’t stop there. She also moved in on some of the most familiar claims launched against Azalea’s career — that she’s the music industry’s move in on what Nicki Minaj already was able to accomplish as a black woman: a female pop-star/rapper.

After Iggy logged on to find more than 10 tweets directed at her from from Azealia, she threw back her own wallop of 160 character slams, as well as noting that she didn’t feel Banks’ intentions were to bring light to the issue, but just to tarnish Azalea herself. In fact, much of Iggy’s response centered on how she felt that the other Azealia’s attack on her had more to do with press than Eric Garner, saying that there were better ways to help than mobilize Twitter followers — and even provided some ways that her own followers could.

Banks, however, was back at it again a few hours later, bringing up an old Azealia Vs. Azalea battle from back when Iggy made the XXL Magazine list of most promising hip-hop artists over Banks in 2012, reported MStarz. At that time, Azealia called out some of Iggy’s lyrics that she thought were racist, the exact point she brought up as the Twitter war to a close last night.

Do you think there’s any truth to Azealia Banks’ comments about Iggy Azelea?
