7 Feuds That Move Us To Cancel Azealia Banks

Look, I don't write about Azealia Banks a lot as it is, but I think the internet needs to move to cancel her on the count of her being a "fame seeker." 

Maybe I'm being a little harsh. I mean, I've said the same thing about fame seeking for Rita Ora, but there's something to be said about Azealia Banks, because of the fact that she's constantly starting beef where it doesn't need to be.

I've got 7 good staples here as to why Azealia Banks needs to be discontinued, and why, after this post, we should probably quit giving her any press.

Now granted, a lot of us don't exactly have a soft spot for Elon Musk. But just because Banks was practically stalking him and Grimes at his house, he somehow got dragged into some beef this month. One that resulted in people talking about his junk size. It's now said that Grimes and Elon, who were seeing each other, have stopped following each other on Social Media accounts, so it could be safe to say that after all the text messages that Banks shared on her IG story about Elon from Grimes may have ended their relationship. I mean, not too many people would get upset about the size of their nether regions being blasted out for the world to know, but Grimes revealing that Musk now is a pot smoker may have upset him. Either way, it's an invasion of privacy, and it just keeps getting weirder day by day.

The darling of the rap world, Miss Cardi, got into blows with Banks online (because that's where Azealia does all of her fighting, behind her keyboard and in hiding), calling Cardi the  "poor man's Nicki Minaj." Luckily, Cardi had the perfect response, a video of Banks dancing to her song "Bodak Yellow" in a club. You get her, Cardi.

Speaking of Nicki Minaj, Banks declined to join Minaj on tour, something that Nicki took some offense to, and posted on Twitter about it. Though I will say, inviting that in public, saying "#ManTheseBitchesDelirious," Banks jumped on top of it, claiming she didn't believe in the hierarchy of the rap game. *Sigh* that could be why you still have to start beef with people to get noticed, Azealia.

A battle of the Azaleas at best, Iggy shared with fans that at one point she had contemplated suicide, in which Banks encouraged further by commenting on Instagram. Talk about a load of crap! You should never joke about someone's pain like that, but since Banks has no class, I can't say I'm surprised. I guess Iggy eventually forgave her for it, as they tried to collaborate later on a track, according to Billboard.

It seems if you are a female rapper in this industry, you have to pick a fight with Lil' Kim. It's like a law or something. Azealia flip-flopped from loving Kim to slamming her about not writing her own raps. Instead of engaging on social media, Kim released a statement via a publicist, basically mimicking Mariah Carey's famous "I don't know her" line. It seems even in beef-casting, she could barely get Lil' Kim to care enough.

From spewing some transphobic comments about how Zayn looks like he used to be a girl, to insulting his heritage and saying that he pretends to be black, she said mostly everything she could to Zayn without many retorts. All because when she tried to tweet at him prior, he said "My @'s too good for you. No lies ... I see you reaching but I don't care." At least he had some sense. She did issue an apology, but it seems like that's all she does these days.

Much news has come to light about the specific incident that occurred, but the gist was that Russell Crowe became irritated and "choked" Azealia, and spit at her, calling her a racial slur. Initially, RZA said that Crowe did not spit at her, but later changed his story in an interview. Crowe apparently threw Banks out of the party after she threatened to cut the throats of the other party goers, and RZA described her behavior as "obnoxious erratic individual," according to The Fader. And let's face it, looking at her history of beef, it's not like that's out of the question. Out of all of Banks' public issues, this might be the only one that is warranted for the press. Banks still stands her ground saying that RZA did not back her up in any of this, and she even said she hoped he dropped dead.

There are many other feuds that Banks has had, including ones with T.I., Beyonce, Eminem, and more, but truth be told, they just get more idiotic as time goes on. Does Banks really deserve this much thought? Probably not. I can't even name one song of hers, but I can name most of her feuds with other celebrities. All that says to me is maybe she should focus as hard on her music as she does on her fights, and maybe, just maybe, she'd get somewhere. #CancelAzealiaBanks
