Azealia Banks

A few years ago the queer community was in love with Azealia Banks, her hit tune ‘212’ was blasting out across the dance floors of LGBTIQ clubs around the world.

The rapper has always been fond of a dramatic outburst burst and has previously been criticised for her use of the word ‘fagot’, but over the last fortnight the diva has really gone to town.

Azealia calls a flight attendant a fagot

On September 22nd Banks had a run in with a flight attendant on Delta Airways. The singer was trying to get off the plane quickly when a French tourist reportedly blocked her way. The singer was lot impressed and ended up wrestling with staff for her bags before calling the attendant a “fucking fagot”.

Azealia says the LGBTIQ community is made of weaklings

In a series of tweets the singer says she’s part of the LGBTIQ community and the fact that so many people took offence to her outburst on the plane shows that the community is made up of weaklings.  “All I had to do is say one word and I moved a whole community. What weaklings” Banks wrote on her Twitter account.

Azealia says the gay community should be able to take her criticism

Undeterred by a barrage of criticism the singer adds, “You guys can handle TEN HARD INCHES OF COCK, call a woman a c**t, yet can’t take the word f*****t LOLOL.”

Azealia says she want to pepper spray gay men in the face 

“Imagine the pain young gay fans feel when they hear the vile things you say @azealiabanks.” asked one of her fans, to which Banks replied “oh well imagine how I wanna spray a gay man in the face with pepper spray everytime he calls me a bitch a slut or a hoe. Kiss my ass. Goodnight.”

Azealia tells a fan she hopes he dies.

When another fan criticised her comments Banks offered two options on how the fan could die.

“Keep f**king with me if you f**king want to. One day your hemmroids [sic] are going to burst and you’ll bleed to death bitch.’” the singer wrote before adding.

“Yea keep trolling for d**k on grindr. You’ll be murdered and stuffed under a truck somewhere soon.”, the second comment was later deleted.

Azealia says the gay community are like the white KKK

Facing continuing online criticism for abusing the airline attendant Banks hits back on her Twitter account. Banks, who identifies as being bisexual tells the LGBTIQ community to harden up.

“LGBT community (GGGG) are like the gay white KKK’s,” Banks wrote in a Twitter post that has since been deleted. “Get them some pink hoods and unicorns and let them rally down rodeo drive.”

So, are we still loving that ‘212’ song?
