While the bulk of her cause has been sullied by a never ending stream of feuds, Azealia Banks has done a pretty good job of establishing herself as a ‘music led musician’, in an age where most of her contemporaries truly are models with mics.
However, while the last year has seen her brand go from strength to strength thanks to a consistent supply of engaging material, this week has saw her parade rained on when long running nemesis Iggy Azalea fired shots her way via ‘Shut Your Pretty Mouth’ magazine.
This, months after Azealia sparked a mini race row over a lyric in an Azalea cut, in which she referred to herself as a ‘runaway slave master‘.
Now peep Banks’ response to Iggy’s new diss below…
Ouch.
Perhaps teasing the fact recent interviews with Iggy have been unable to avoid their pair’s on/off war of words, their new battle comes after the launch of the latter’s stellar new single ‘Work’ but before Azealia revealed the coming year would see her collaborate with Lady GaGa and perform at this year’s Glastonbury Festival.

Well, she’s right.
She hasn’t mentioned iggy in ages, iggy slanders her in an interview so she has every right to respond.

i thought she was saying ‘im a runaway slave’…..then saying ‘master’ as if she was talking to someone.
I thought it implied she was the slave? I think people took iggys lyrics the wrong way.

She is white, whites can never do any wrong.
Look at Mel Gibson, an old crazy white guy who accused his gf or wife at the time of sleeping with “n*ggers” as he calls us. He dropped the “N” word several times in a phone call that was heard worldwide, yet he is still loved…smh. Even Whoppie Goldberg’s ass defended his racist rant! I swear, I can’t stand self hating blacks!
If a black heterosexual celebrity dropped a gay slur, all hell would’ve broke loose.

Um, okay. I am not going to judge, as it is wrong to. But, if you are supporting the endangerment and genocide of an entire race, or at least half of an entire race, then you are just a guilty as the people killing said race, therefore you are committing a sin and therefore you might, probably, will go to hell. Unless you are an atheist, in which then someone will piss on your grave. Either way, please continue.

I am not realy into Iggy music but she’s really talented. I am more into Azealia music, lyrics and production. But I need for both of this ladies to get their act together, especially Azealia, she’s my favorite female rap artist at the moment and she’s working with some of the biggest name in the industry (Beyonce, Kanye, Gaga) and giving the opportunity to perform in some of the biggerst stage (Glastonbury, v festival) she should get it together…

Blow it up into something it’s not she was talking about rebelling against that
Because her family was racist , when she moved to America she made many
Made many black friends and if she was racist do you think she would collaborate with T.I
