New York hip-hop artist Azealia Banks has once again raised eyebrows over dicey comments, taking direct aim at an unnamed female this week.
Banks hopped onto her Twitter page last night (March 5) to blast a certain lady but would not specify who.
“Tried to take more than you were being offered and got your hand cut off!!,” she tweeted.
“IM TOO DIVA FOR THIS SH*T! *yanks wig off* *flips over make-up table* *storms off*”
“LOL I feel like every label with a new female rapper says start drama with Azealia Banks”
“Like these b*tches know they have no wins otherwise…. So they try and antagonize me. LMFAOOO”
“They try and make me look like the angry black girl … When I’m actually HEAD NEGRESS.”
“These b*tches giving up their p*ssy and have nothing to show for it!!!!! LMFAOOOOOOOOOOO”
“All that f*cking and sucking, n*ggas STILLL won’t even write you a verse !!!! LMFAOOOO” (Azealia Banks’ Twitter)
Some websites have already started to speculate who Banks took aim at.
A potential candidate would be UK rapper Shystie, whose video for “Control It,” featuring Azealia, was released on Sunday and subsequently taken down the following day. Azealia expressed her feelings about the video on Twitter, saying that she did not feel it because it was unoriginal and rushed. However, Shystie herself has not said anything publicly in response.

A few days ago, Grand Hustle affiliate Iggy Azalea called out Banks for dissing her last year.
She first calls out Azealia for saying that she is ‘seriously trivialising aspects of black culture’, and then adds that nothing Azealia says is to be trusted, continuing, “She says that **** about ****ing anything. She called Perez Hilton a ******, I think she trivialised gay culture… ****ing whatever. She’s biased about everybody and everything, even towards the people who help her.” She adds, “She even talked **** about the fashion industry after they basically gave her a career. I don’t think anything about that girl man, she ****ing talks **** out of her arse and that’s her business.” (Fans Share)
Last summer, Azealia admitted she did not like resorting to Twitter to air out her personal issues.
“Of course, because it’s e-thugging… Who wants to look like that? But how else am I gonna reach y’all? I don’t have a T.I. to get on a radio show and defend me; I’m the one behind me. Y’all expect me to agree like, “Oh yea, I’m wack. I only have one song.” That’s one song y’all n*ggas don’t f*cking have. You might win some, but you just lost one.” (VIBE)
