Azealia Banks and Lana Del Rey do not like each other. Their feud has gotten ugly in recent years, with Azealia even threatening to burn down Lana’s house using her witchcraft. She has also criticized the singer for working with A$AP Rocky, who she accused of beating women. Needless to say, they’ve got their own opinions of each other.
This week, Lana Del Rey announced her new album and, in doing so, she needlessly shaded a number of successful female artists for their lyrical content.
“Question for the culture: Now that Doja Cat, Ariana, Camila, Cardi B, Kehlani and Nicki Minaj and Beyoncé have had number ones with songs about being sexy, wearing no clothes, fucking, cheating etc – Can I please go back to singing about being embodied, feeling beautiful by being in love even if the relationship is not perfect, or dancing for money – or whatever I want – without being crucified or saying that I’m glamorizing abuse?” asked Lana in a lengthy post.
People have been going after Lana for hours, urging her to delete the post and accusing her of bringing down other women in an attempt to make her own point clearer. Now, the same critics are bringing Azealia Banks into this mess, hoping that she ends up commenting on it.
One of the top trends on Twitter is “Azealia” and it’s just because people want the rapper to chime in on what’s happening.
“What time does azealia usually wake up let’s get this party started,” wrote one fan. “Waiting on Azealia Banks’ take on Lana’s post lmao,” said another.
People are ready for the tea. Azealia is awake, updating her Instagram Story a few hours ago. Will she touch this topic though? We’ll see…
