New York rapper Azealia Banks isn’t holding back her truth. The hip-hop artist has shared her thoughts on today’s female rap game and some of the biggest feuds going on.

In a new interview, Azealia shared her issues with Nicki Minaj and Remy Ma‘s publicized rap beef.

“Even if you look at the whole Nicki Minaj and Remy Ma debacle. These are like the two mainstream band stand black female rappers we have and you guys pit them against each other and egg it on and then brought Cardi B up afterwards? Come on, negros. Come on, negros. Come on. I don’t know, for that to just have happened was kind of like stupid – men in hip-hop should have coerced them to work together. It looked really bad. It just looked bad and it kind of brought Nicki’s value down. Even if it brought Remy’s value up, it didn’t bring her the right value. It brought Remy’s value up in the chitlin circuit. Remy’s so talented. That was just like the easiest thing you could have f*cking done – and whoever convinced you to do it was against you. I’m sorry. Because now you’re the girl who wrote ‘Shether.’ … I ‘know’ Remy Ma’s music. I know her catalogue. I know her as an artist. Even if you didn’t collaborate with Nicki Minaj, I didn’t wanna see a fight. It just looks bad. It looks bad and it looks bad on female rappers. It looks bad on black women. Charlamagne should be f*cking ashamed of himself for egging it on. Papoose, you should be f*cking ashamed of yourself for letting Remy Ma do that. Like, she just got out of f*cking prison and you’re gonna just like stick her right back into the fighting thing. No. Absolutely f*cking not. Remy Ma didn’t even need to be on ‘Love & Hip Hop.’ Cardi B needs ‘Love & Hip Hop.’ Remy Ma does not need ‘Love & Hip Hop.’ You get it? And it’s almost as if there was a greater strategy to do this and pop Cardi B in there.” (The Black Media)

Reports this week claim Remy and rap veteran Lil’ Kim have a diss song called “Wake Me Up” aimed at Minaj.

Sources close to the deal tell TMZ … Columbia Records exec Shawn Holiday signed Remy to a multi-million dollar deal, and Remy immediately started working with Nicki’s arch nemesis, Kim.

The track is riddled with subliminal shots at Nicki:

— “That crown I’m gon take that sh*t. Cause you a clown and homie don’t play that sh*t.”

— “I heard he lay that d***. You let them filet that fish. You just met him how he bae that quick?”

Sounds like Remy’s taking shots at Nicki’s relationship with Nas … which, publicly at least, took off pretty quickly. (TMZ)

Last month, Remy raised eyebrows after linking up the Queen Bee for a studio session.

Recently, female rapper Trina explained why she could not co-sign Remy and Nicki’s publicized feud.

“I don’t get into all that – people always try to put women against each other. It’s more of that than trying to unite together because people definitely love to see more of a unity than a separation but in this generation, we don’t have that. We have too many envious, hateful people that would rather see a divide. I don’t know why. I see so many dudes that work together and don’t even like each other – why separate the women from doing that? I don’t like that. That’s something I don’t like.”
