Recently, Azealia talked about falling back from taking legal action against actor Russell Crowe following a recent alleged assault.

Though she wants others to hear her story, Banks is no longer planning on pressing charges against Crowe. “Realistically, to be honest, I really don’t want to. Because I just don’t want this in the media. I want my music out. I just want to f–king put my music out,” the controversial recording artist explains. “I just want my music to shine. I don’t want to be dealing with another episode, another thing, another whatever.” (Us Weekly)

A day prior, rap veteran RZA issued a statement on what allegedly went down between Banks and Crowe.

In a recent interview, Banks recalled her horrific experience and how she became a victim at Crowe’s recent Los Angeles hotel party.

Now Azealia, 25, has told The Sun of 52-year-old Aussie Russell: “I think he’s a racist, misogynist pig. “This is a stain on me. My ­femininity feels stained. I feel stained as a woman, I feel mishandled, I feel mistreated, I feel dirty. I feel very f***ing low.” Azealia said: “Russell had moonshine on the table, and then Russell calls for whisky, so then they just start mixing them up. (The Sun)
