Azealia Banks already facing fallout from her latest Twitter beef.
Weeks after suggesting that Sarah Palin should be gang raped, and days after endorsing Donald Trump, Harlem musician Azealia Banks is making waves on Twitter yet again. This time, Banks engaged in a Twitter feud with former One Direction crooner Zayn Malik, after she claimed that the singer borrowed inspiration for his “Like I Would” music video from one of her visuals.
The feud, which resulted in Banks’ name trending worldwide on Twitter, began innocently enough, with the rapper referring to Malik as “a cutie pie” in her initial post.
“Damn Zayn be mood boarding the fuck of out me .. I’m not mad about this though. Zayn is a cutie pie,” Banks wrote in the caption to a photo showcasing the similarities between her music video and Zayn’s.
Things took a swift turn for the worst when Malik received word of Banks’ allegations and issued an indirect response to the singer/rapper.
“No lies … I see you reaching but I don’t care…My @’s too good for you,” Zayn Malik wrote in two separate tweets.
After calling out Malik’s fans for harassment, Banks went on to refer to the singer as a “token sand nigga,” “PUNJAB,” and “faggot” in a series of tweets.
“Token sand nigga pout: ‘I was the least celebrated in the white boy group because I’m brown’…’Trying to make myself known but I’m still known as the token sand nigga from 1D’…LOL @ZAYNMALIK IS A FAGGOT,” Banks wrote in several tweets.
XXLMag.com reports that as a result of Banks’ rant, the musician has been dropped from the U.K.’s Born & Bred festival.
A handful of tweets from Azealia Banks versus Zayn Malik (and fans), can be found below.
What in the F is HHDX’s obsession with Azealia Banks twitter rants? Nobody buys her albums or listens to her music. Never news about her music, it’s always about her twitter rants. At this point in time we all know that we can just follow her twitter if we’re interested in knowing what she’s ranting about today. Is she paying you all to add stories about her? Is it the same writer adding these stories (are you a big fan of her or something)? Who in the hell actually cares? Why do I keep coming to this site? This site is awful the stuff you post is garbage. (Like your Steph Curry MVP story….HOW IS THAT HIPHOP?)
I dont know anything about her music,but I find it very interesting to come on here to read about her Twitter rants..I love it,if you hate it, just skip over it
You’re complaining about Steph Curry being mentioned on a hip hop site? With all the rappers namedropping him in a song…now youre ranting in a story that’s about her Azaela Banks ranting. The irony….
I’m not ranting about the fact she is ranting. Thats fine, everyone should be allowed to speak their minds. I’m ranting that this website updates us with her twitter feed almost weekly. They reach and put non hiphop related stories on here all the time. It is littered with bullshit stories and poorly written articles. I’m so skeptic of the pro hhdx replies here i am thinking you are on the staff. Somehow this site got im my cycle of sites i check, i need to get this out of my loop as it has been pretty poor the past year+
I love her!
Bro… what a fuckboy!
I love you too!
I love you too!
Sad thing is her music is somewhat good and you can listen to it unlike the rest of the LOT. Her Twitter rant shows her messed up brain, she’s even racist towards her own kind. She’s going to be outta here soon, just like Iggy.
Is she a rapper? I never heard any songs from her. Does she have any?
She’s needs to make music with Armand Van Helden! Hip Hop and House music are great combination.
Im in love with Azealia. She is so fiesty lol I bet she is everything I want her to be in the bedroom.
Well, he did copy her style. lol
i’ll love to find out how crazy she is in bed….bet she got some fire ass pussy
How exactly are you going to be a black woman that supports Donald Trump? Talk about voting against your own interests. Sorry but after reading that shit she isn’t in a position to be calling anyone a sellout or Uncle Tom.
How can you be black and vote for Hillary??? You’re an idiot.
Why because Trump is telling us get off our ass and get a job? Or deporting illegals who stole our jobs? The clintons are behind the mass incarceration of African Americans
I hate to break it to the pair of you but I think Hillary is a twat as well. Disliking one doesn’t make a person a fan of the other. I’m also not American or Black, genius.

stole who’s job? majority of americans wouldnt want to do the jobs that are being “stolen”
She is disgusting. She really throwing around the term sand n@@@@? If you support this racist attention who re you should be ashamed of yourself.
She is a vile, cheap, foul mouthed piece of trash. Those would seem her more endearing points. She is also a bigot, a racist & a xenophobe. One hopes this has a negative affect on her career & that there are some principled people in her management, record label & support structure that will abandon her. She deserves zero support from anybody. Her fans should depart her & Twitter should ban her. Social media should not give her a voice!
She’s a voice of our generation! She needs even bigger platform to spread da message to the world! Her opinion are always on point!
