Azealia Banks rarely makes headlines for her music anymore. Instead, she typically becomes internet fodder for whatever outrageously controversial thing she said or did. 2021 is proving to be no different.
On Tuesday (January 12), Banks horrified her fans when she posted a video of herself digging up her dead cat. That on its own would’ve warranted the countless “WTFs” that followed, but it’s what she did after unearthing the corpse that really pushed people over the edge — she cooked it.
In the clip, Banks continually stirs a boiling pot of water and the carcass until its skull is visible. She captioned the post, “Lucifer 2009-2020. My Dear Kitty. Thank you for everything. A legend. An icon. Forever a serval serve.”
Banks has raised concerns over her mental health in the past. Last August, she sounded the alarm after she shared a series of Instagram post suggesting she was feeling suicidal.
“Yea, I think I’m done here,” she wrote.” This pandemic, extreme lack of social interaction, no intimacy, combined with constant public ridicule is making life harder than its worth. I’m not begging for attention or asking for sympathy/empathy……I’m just ready to go. Peacefully of course. My soul is tired. I’m ready to go.
“I will document my last times and release a film for you all to finally understand me, from my perspective. I will try my best to finish the project I promised beforehand. With whatever strength left.”
Azealia Banks Gives The OK Following Suicide Scare: 'I'm Fine, Better Than I Was Before'
As Banks’ name started to trend on Twitter, she quickly resurfaced only to condemn those who were concerned about her with, “What is this obsession u bitches have with my dispair? Don’t show concern for me when I’m down. That’s because I’m down. Support me when I’m up, bitch. Support me when I’m feeling good.”
The Harlem-born rapper is trending once again and yes, not for anything good. Check out some of the reactions below.
Noah, get the boat.
Lmao
I recommend Noah instead locate a shot of Thorazine and a padded room for this attention seeking buffoon.
What the actual fuck
UHHH….WTF IS WRONG WITH YOU
Azealia do everyone a favour and OD. Thanks
THIS needs to be the reason for news and social media to forget about this bitch once and for all
When the cure for SoS (stuck on stupid syndrome) is discovered, one vaccination should be set aside for this troubled attention seeker.
That said, look at the bright side, the cat perished before being put in the pot of scalding water. In China, cats and kittens are put in vats of boiling water while still alive, they then skin the cat once boiled alive as if it were a lobster.
Fuck you’re dumb. So you know all about cooking cats how??? Ya know she probably was just boiling the skin off of the skeleton, like taxidermists do on game skulls. Just wait, y’all gonna look stupid as fuck when she makes some dope fucking art with its skeleton in honor of El Gato Diablo.
You know alot about cooking cats, bro. I don’t know how to feel about that.
People on the net are meme’ing and it’s clear she’s mentally ill, it’s not even funny. I don’t care about her music but get her some help or next time she might actually hurt herself or someone else.
You named your cat lucifer? Dig up and cook ya precious pets corpse? Who the hell does that shit? This woman should be locked up for serial killer tendencies!
You are ignorant
When you say you do you mean you
Just wanted say f@ck you for embedding ads right in the middle of the article…ill read this shit about some rich crack ho somewhere else lol
Agreed bro literally can’t even read the dumbass article
she needs a level headed boyfriend is she always alone when she does this crazy shit?
Naw Man!! I wouldn’t wish no man for this evil chic!! What man would want a chic that dig up a dead cat and make a soup out of it!! Unless he’s evil as hell too!!
well a friend at least. when i look at something like that i think fuck give this woman help what has she done not to deserve it? it shouldn’t be about whether she deserves a friend it is the right thing to do. a friend isn’t going to say to her you deserve this you don’t deserve that that’s not what friends are for. maybe there is an issue with drugs here or even sexual activity. jesus years ago now i got so violent i smashed all the windows of our house and i attempted to kill my father. but when i made changes such as being anti-drug and celebate i feel better. good luck azealia.
Ethan Granzow below is the only one defending this bullshit. Must be Azealia’s only fan left or Azealia herself.
She’s practicing the dark arts, palo to be exact… Which is something she should not be broadcasting on twitter smh
Bitch is cray cray
Satan
Support me look at me me me me me fucking me and me me me
Damn this chic will do anything for attention… I guess since music career sucks she has to do something to keep people talking about her…….Where’s her friends at, they need to make sure she gets help, make sure her mind is clear for her child or children if she has any….
