While one breaks records, the other is just…well…broke (with expensive taste).
Interestingly, though their chart stats and overall relevancy sing two very different tunes, one thing Azealia Banks and Rihanna have in common is an apparent absence of “give a damn” – often evidenced by their willingness to use social media as a battleground to wage war against other artists.
Now, just days after announcing a permanent departure from Twitter (and dissing K. Michelle along the way), Banks took to Instagram to diss footage lifted from Rih’s “sold out” ‘Anti’-tour. Criticizing the singer’s dance moves as ‘lazy,’ the ‘ATM Jam’ maestra dispensed a lengthy weigh-in on the Bajan beauty (much to the displeasure of her faithful #NAVY).
If you’ve missed any of this ongoing action, catch it below:
It all started when our TSR friends captured this:
Fans immediately went on the defense, causing Banks to elaborate on her “diss”
It saddens me to see someone [Rihanna] with such a huge platform just be so lazy and complacent with their craft. Just lifting styles off of other girls’ backs without even putting the proper love or energy into it. Vogue is an art and it should be respected as such. It should not be used in some fake way to make yourself seem cultured.” – Azealia Banks, 2016
Since then, the rapstress has been on the receiving end of fresh insults from the singer’s faithful fan group. See highlights below:
Bawhahahahahahahaha lets be honest with ourselves Navy. fRih won’t clapback cause Azelia don’t play
Rihanna doesn’t need to clapback she’s on another level…
Bitxh get your bi-polar ass out my reply section. Ugh you just love me don’t ya. Not even a week and your already in my comments.
Get over yourself… Its a simple reply.
No huntea you need to get over me lmao! I done told ya kindly i would appreciate it if you stayed out my reply sections whether they be shady or not. I don’t like or care for a fake bitxh. Now go drink bleach sis. You’re definitely somebody society won’t miss. Oop guess you can play victim and crywolf about being bullied online ?????
Scratch that! Go bathe in bleach seeing as you ‘claim’ to be bi-racial yet say racists shít and have an ignorant ass opinion on black people’s modern day problem/struggle with society. Because you know s****** would be an easy way out for a racists fuxk like you.
Oh please. She wasn’t on another level when she was poking fun at Ciara
@Hail Beysus
FINISH HER!
But I CANNOT WITH HER CLAIMING IGGY WAS USING HER FOR RELEVANCY AND THE HEAUX OUT HERE DOING THE SAME ISH WITH RIHANNA LMFAOOOOO!!! The self drag!!!
I see NOOOOO LIES AT ALL IN HER ACCURATE STATEMENT ON THE MESS OF “Anti-FULLYSEATED” TOUR ! ???????? yeah I said it ! AZEALA YOU BETTA READ ???
@HailBeysus lmao u ain’t lying! She learnt her lesson after she severely tried Teyana Taylor and got read down like the King James Version. The Slavi love to gas her up like she’s a down-chick, but have we ever seen Badgal-fRIH-fRIH in a fight? Nope! and I betchu she won’t try aZOOlia
@Annalise lmfaooo right!!! The fact the Gavvy stay saying ‘Rihanna is authentic and true to herself.’ KIII that bitxh only started her ‘Bad Girl’ image to shed the Fistopher beating! That heaux ain’t about her bad girl image.
LMAO exactly! And I see the @Maid is still cleaning up dust in your reply box after you scalped her bald! CLEAN UP ON AISLE FIVE!
And in the same breath lost her shoe deal and turned around and praised her vogue Brazil cover when it debuted. Rihanna paid her dust is what happened.
@Rihboy KIII thanx for reminding me! As I recall, the ACTUAL reason why she lost the shoes was because she posted that HILARIOUS picture online of her beating Rihanna up, and the whitewashed adidas executives started wetting themselves. LOL you really think Teyana gives a hot damn?!? Chile GONE! Teyana comes from a wealthy background but is still a down-ass b***** (unlike badgirl-frih). Rihanna and her nazi got shuck and started complaining to adidas, like the bunch of punk ass lowlives they are – No surprise there!
… And NOPE coconuthanna did NOT pay her dust KIII, she went back + forth on Twitter until she realised she was out of her depth. Then she and her band of slaves ran to the feds and adidas complaining about threatening behaviour, all because of one photo! LMAO what a bunch of punks!!??
Death shes so bitter jealous and miserable
But I see no lies……
This girl is truly pitiful. Does she have any industry friends?
LMFAO. Why is this news?
—
1) Azealia Banks has “criticized” almost every music celebrity in modern existence.
.
2) Rihanna is not your typical pop-star nor has never been a “dancer” and as a huge fan, I can readily admit that. She certainly has rhythm but ‘complex, highly choreographed, dance routines’ have never been her strong point.
—
When Banks can find even a quota of musical relevance or industry significance, then we can have an open debate about what is what. Until then, she will forever remain pressed, shaken, stirred and bothered!
Can we all admit Azealia is right! Rihanna didn’t spend much time getting this tour together, it shows. And granted she’s not a strong dancer but she could put more effort into the cute little dance moves that are does decide to do on stage.
“How’m ah s’pose ta eat peeg’s feet wit no cawllud greens?” Rihs set was A MESS!!!!!!!! A DISASTER!!!!! Smh culd roc nation not afford a Fing BUDGET???? It looked like a B’sides free concert show. No creativity art or anything. I guess they tried sumthing with Man down but still stale asf, the choreography was also a joke & also getting uglier too in the face area.
Bought to be all the way honest. When I saw this part of the performance I thought it was a fake video of a drag queen performance and, was mad it was put under her anti tour name.
BALDY clinging to the Navy? Did the Beyhive kick you out or something? Lol hehe. Watch it mention Tinashe…..
Anyways, Rihanna doesn’t need to reply as she knows if she does than she will give her more publicity on what she does for a living and that’s “Beef on Social Media”.
–
Has Mona Scott-Young tried to reach out to Azealia Banks? Reality TV is where she belongs.
If that was Ciara talking about Rihanna Rihanna would’ve broke her neck writing a clapback. Ciara has so much power over Rihanna. She makes Rihanna so bothered.
Your endless trolling has become boring. Go back to your #JACKIE alias sis. You were funnier then.
Did I hit a nerve? We all know no one can get under Rih and intimidate her like Ciara can. That’s why she spied on Ciara singing for her fans. Lol
Rihanna hasn’t uttered that trannies name in over 3 years. Not even Future and Rihanna could save “Ciara” (the album) demise.
My thing is if people don’t like her,then why do yall keep blogging about her? Obviously Azealia does not care what people think of her. She has nothing to lose nor gain. Entertainment news must be must be getting slow and boring nowadays if yall blogging about what someone has said on social media. Wow has it really come down to this? It’s a shame that the music industry has come down to nothing but crap. F–k it, I guess it’s best to either become a Socialite (Ciara), a controversial Twitter star (Azealia), or a reality star (Kardashians) in order to become famous.
She’s a mental case
I see no lies in what Azealia said.
She told no lies…. I wonder if shes that lazy in bed.
I don’t like her, but I detect no lies…
But the bigger kii here is fRihanna setting the AntiSoldOut tour back by 8 dates for ‘production reasons’! ?????
She told the true it ain’t no lies
@CiciFinnaFlopAgain. Of course Rihanna hasn’t uttered Ciara’s name again because Ciara keeps paying her dust. Bloop!
Jackie why did you feel the need to create another account just to troll. Your main one is already a joke enough. Also, lay off the meth kiddo
But I’m not Jackie. Seems like you need to take your own advice
And the illuminati doesn’t exist
Now Azelia, you know I fvcks with you. I fell in love with you during the Hot 97 interview where you wore your heart on your sleeve and diligently and eloquently spoke on modern issues facing people of color and their artistry. However, your squirrel ass has passes the line of demarcation. We all know Rihanna cant dance. So what? I got my ticket to see her TOMORROW in Miami still, because I love her music. That’s what it’s all about. Maybe if you focused more on your music too, then maybe you will have a wider fan base then…your cats
It’s comical how you Rhitards think it’s funny when Rihanna blasts folks on social media but when it’s the other way around you want to turn into crybabies. You can’t have it both ways, Rhitards
@IspeakTruthNoFallacy,
Keep making a fool out of yourself. I am not Jackie but what can I expect from a bunch of Rhitards?
You’ve already denied that you weren’t, yet you felt the incessant need to post another comment. It seems a bit suspect to me.
I had to keep repeating it to you because you Rhitards are retarded
LMAO so the Nazi were all on Azealia’s bandwagon when she was disssing formation (just days after she praised Beyonce on twitter), and now they are having meltdowns over her comments on coconuthanna’s awful dancing. This time she’s right on the money, cuz Rihanna must be one of the few black girls that can’t dance.
But…but…but when she was throwing shade at Beyonce the Navy was here for it.Now that she’s dragging Pon De Forehead, they wanna feel some type of way!? Lol The Navy is the most hypocritical Stan base of ALL TIME !
Besides, Rhianna shades other celebs on social media all the time. So with all due respect, have a stadium full of EMPTY ass seats.
The question is… Did Azoolea lie?
I agree with Banks, sorry Rihanna fans.
RIHANNA CANNT SING,
1)SHE CANNT DANCE,
2)SHE CANNT WRITE HER OWN SONGS, 3)SHE CANNT PLAY A MUSIC INTRUMENT
ONLY THING Rihanna IS GOOD IN IS SINGING OTHER PEOPLE(writers) NUMBER ONES. FACTS.
Well at least Azealia Banks has more talent in her pinky finger than rihanna has in her entire body. #justsayin
Talent where?! She exploits the gay community and then turn around and use homophobic slurs towards them. When the gay community birthed her. ???. She’s a house h**. But they are starting to see through her 2 dollar Harlem a$$.
Vogue belongs to the gays. Azelia herself vogues and fka twigs as well. Neither own the art of vogue. It’s been done by many for years. She just really makes no sense these days. Poor girl got scrapped from the album and now she is acting like a brat. To bad her career will be over by the time it’s time to play catch up. Reality tv is looking like the next move for her. She is extremely comical.
This b**** is mad because she was scrapped from Anti.This fake ho can be seen partying with Rihanna and Travis Scott last year.
It’s sad that she is constantly on Rihanna’s ass and Rihanna pays her dust while topping the charts. She’s hoping she responds and she won’t, Azealia needs to build her own career and stop trying to get other people to do it for her.
I’m not the biggest fan of rihanna performances at all. But my issue with Azelia is that she is always attacking who’s hot at the moment. I’m trying to figure out is she a rapper or a blogger? She has done nothing credible for the music industry, but yet she’s always running her mouth. Im sorry her thumbs. She’s so quick to speak on black women but yet tears them down the first chance she gets for a little buzz. She made a whole album about killing Iggy’s career and still has not accomplished that. A Banks shut up and get your career going before you comment on some ones dancing. Rih has clearly proven herself in this industry while you continue to try to prove yourself on Twitter and IG.
she’s not the best dancer. ..
She told no lies though. She also said Work Video was a rip off of Baby Boy.
