Before deleting her Twitter account entirely, the always controversial Azealia Banks had some choice words for Cardi B, who just nabbed the #1 spot on the Billboard Hot 100 for her hit single “Bodak Yellow.”
In a series of since-deleted tweets, Banks took a few shots at the Bronx rapper following a Twitter user’s comment that Cardi is black. Banks evidently believes Cardi is the “poor man’s” version of Nicki Minaj.
“She’s only black when black want to include themselves in a success story,” Banks wrote on Monday (September 25).
“I wanted spicy Latina and she gave me poor mans nicki,” she added. “Because I thought she was going to be a Latina hottie and not a poor mans nicki. It went the other way now I’m over it.”
These sentiments are in stark contrast to the many Hip Hop artists who have commended Cardi on her recent success. Cardi’s boyfriend Offset, Missy Elliott, Pusha T and the self-proclaimed Black Barbie herself are among the many publicly celebrating her accomplishment.
Cardi is the first solo female rapper to score a #1 hit in 19 years. The last woman to earn the honor was Lauryn Hill in 1998 when she released “Doo Wop (That Thing)” minus The Fugees.
Banks will have to get used to Cardi … at least for now.
This girl is a professional troll. Please stop giving her press smh.
She’s right*
Why won’t this bitter ass broad just go away?
“Before deleting her Twitter account entirely” – for the umpteenth time. she’ll be tweeting again within a week or so. also, doesn’t she have another Russell Crowe party to get thrown out of or some shit, get the foh already bish
When was the last time the words “azelia banks” and “music” were in the same sentence? She should have a podcast or something since her music career is over… too many burned bridges.
Azealia Banks must be a poor man’s Khia then.
She doesn’t make Latin music that’s why? People don’t call her out on her racism enough, deep down she’s probably really disgusted by her dark skin thats why she’s overly defensive because of it. Insecurity haunts the shit out of her when she’s alone.
HOW much is her label paying y’all to promote this garbage? This is not music…it’s a jingle.
Who is this chick Azealia Banks…. The only time I hear about this girl is when she is hating on somebody…. She really needs to sit her ass down somewhere and figure out her life. The time she’s putting into sprew’n all her hate she might want to put into her own eff’n career instead worry’n bout somebody else’s. I don’t not like this chick…. with her whooped down self!
I’m not saying she’s right because Nicki is a poor man’s lil Kim or Remy but bodak yellow is overhyped. Beat isn’t original and ass and lyrics are below average. Who ever making these strippers famous. STOP IT. cardi b will be forgotten in a year.
She has her nerves…at least Cardi B is not bleaching her skin… As a dark skinned Black woman…This bitch is trying to call somebody out and she’s promoting self hate…. Now I understand why she is always hating on somebody…You need prayer… nothing and nobody should have made you BLEACH your fuck’n skin…. No respect…. What you are doing is sending a real msg….. You, just like your music and opinions, are WEAK!
FOH. Banks IS the poor man tho
Jealous people should just commit suicide
And your the average chickenhead who drains cocks for rent money
yeah mon she on some voodoo shit for real
Bitch need 2 quit hate’n and worry out her damn self!!
Miserable hater!
When did Lloyd Banks get a sex change? He didn’t? So you’re telling me that’s a woman? I call BULLSHIT!!
Lloyd Banks look like Droopy Dog or a garden gnome with his stupid ass face
I don’t listen to any of these rappers, but I feel like Banks should just keep her thoughts to herself.
FACTS!!!!
Cardi B is the right mans Iggy Azelia. All these girl rappers want respect but dress like Kim and rap like Foxy. For all the hate Nicki get she created her own lane.
Only female MC ive seen make their own lane was young MA and since shes not eye candy waving tits around and talking about dick while stroking in both hands at the same time she aint selling…
Djf, you Just fell off with that one. And I hate on you usually for fun, but that opinion is plain dumb smh
naaaaaaaaahhhh Young Ma created her own lane by biting Bobby Schmurda song
Lmao now thay you got me thinkin about it your right just listened to a couple of his tracks and oooouuuuu after and damn lol almost as if shmurda wrote it and no man anybody saying nicki made her own lane was probably dropped on there head too many times after conception much like yourself she did what every female with good looks does when she wants something opens that mouth and legs realll wide
Azeaila Banks is the poor mans Azeaila Banks
But she’s like the poor mans Chanel West Coast lol
Wow so Nicki has never had a #1 record? There is hope for humanity.
Banks just Loves to hate. She has fucked up her career and now all she does is troll Anyone who gets some success, is More talented etc etc ….. Gyal needs therapy.
why wont she go away
Yo! Why you so salty ma? Let Cardi get her shine, you had your chance and you played yourself. You old can’t rap ama do a jazz album glow hatin mad we don’t like you tired looking ass chic! haha
I wish Russell Crowe clapped this bitch in the hotel room, she needs to disappear, always hating
U may hate her, but she’s speaking the truf.
I think Azelia is a poor man’s poor excuse for a man. “She” looks like a tranny. Carro already has more money than Banks ever will. LOL
I checked. Nicki Minaj has had multiple number one songs. If your looking for number one solo songs anaconda was a single solo female rapper song and I know y’all remember that shit getting played out.
Ok just to keep it 100. The De Flysuits family must offer a retraction to the previous post. Checked billboard chart history. Anaconda was number 2 at its peak.
