News Posted October 9, 2018 Posted October 9, 2018 To the surprise of no one, Azealia Banks is beefing with another pop star. After her feud with Grimes indirectly cost Elon Musk billions of dollars and his chairmanship at Tesla, the outspoken rapper now finds herself warring with Lana Del Rey. Banks took umbrage with Lana Del Rey’s recent comments about Kanye West — you know, the epic Twitter takedown in which Del Rey chided Kanye for supporting Donald Trump by saying: “I can only assume you relate to his personality on some level. Delusions of Grandeur, extreme issues with narcissism.” Yeah, that one. In response, Banks accused Del Rey of being a “self serving” “white female liberal”, who engages in race-baiting to score an “immediate victory.” “To me this just looks like the typical White woman taking using a weakened target to ‘pretend’ to be an ally,” Banks remarked. “Especially because you know that a white woman vs a black male will result in an immediate victory for the white woman due to societal circumstances. You wouldn’t dare challenge a black woman on her opinion because you don’t have that (much of a) social prejudice in place between women as there is between sexes.” Banks also criticized Del Rey for continuing to work with ASAP Rocky (who himself was charged with assaulting a female fan in 2013). “You approve of ASAP rocky because his victims weren’t white. You’re exactly the kind of thought police Kanye is fighting against…,” Banks contended. Now, Del Rey has issued a stern response. Tweeting directly at Banks, Del Rey wrote, “U know the addy. Pull up anytime. Say it to my face. But if I were you- I wouldn’t.” “I won’t not fuck you up. Period,” Del Rey added. “U coulda been the greatest female rapper alive but u blew it. Don’t take it out on the only person who had ur back.” @shopcheapyxo u know the addy. Pull up anytime. Say it to my face. But if I were you- I wouldn’t. — Lana Del Rey (@LanaDelRey) October 9, 2018 I won’t not fuck you the fuck up. Period. — Lana Del Rey (@LanaDelRey) October 9, 2018 Banks. u coulda been the greatest female rapper alive but u blew it. dont take it out on the only person who had ur back. — Lana Del Rey (@LanaDelRey) October 9, 2018 When Banks hit back at Del Rey over her physical appearance, Del responded, “I’ll send you my surgeon’s number and a good psychiatrist I know in LA – your psych meds aren’t working #uneedanewcocktail.” I’ll send you my surgeon’s number and a good psychiatrist I know in LA – your psych meds aren’t working #uneedanewcocktail — Lana Del Rey (@LanaDelRey) October 9, 2018 You can read Banks’ original tweets about Del Rey below. “You would never in your white mind try to battle ME on my ideas … I suggest you apologize to Kanye for trying to selectively make him complicit in 45’s abuse of women simple for agreeing with parts of his ideology while you frolic through society with other black male abusers,” she tweeted at another point. Wow okay Lana, this would be cute if you were consistent with your outrage and refused to collab with ASAP rocky who has physically assaulted women too. To me this just looks like the typical White woman taking using a weakened target to “pretend” to be an ally. https://t.co/34VEqiiy2t — CHEAPYXO (@SHOPCHEAPYXO) September 30, 2018 Especially because you know that a white woman vs a black male will result in an immediate victory for the white woman due to societal circumstances. You wouldn’t dare challenge a black woman on her opinion because you don’t have that (much of a) social prejudice in place between — CHEAPYXO (@SHOPCHEAPYXO) September 30, 2018 Between women as there is between sexes. Don’t use Kanye for your own vapid attempts to seem politically aware when there is SO MUCH MORE bootleg witchcraft you could be doing to TRY and take down 45. Kanye is not your enemy or THE enemy. In fact your selective outrage — CHEAPYXO (@SHOPCHEAPYXO) September 30, 2018 Makes YOU. The enemy. You approve of ASAP rocky because his victims weren’t white. You’re exactly the kind of thought police Kanye is fighting against…. — CHEAPYXO (@SHOPCHEAPYXO) September 30, 2018 You would never in your white mind try to battle ME on my ideas … I suggest you apologize to Kanye for trying to selectively make him complicit in 45’s abuse of women simple for agreeing with parts of his ideology while you frolic through society with other black male abusers — CHEAPYXO (@SHOPCHEAPYXO) September 30, 2018 Like ASAP ROCKY Who have kicked random women in the face at concerts Simply because they paid their money to come see their idol and in a moment of excitement.. reached out to touch him bc HE didn’t have adequate security that night. You white female liberals are so self serving. — CHEAPYXO (@SHOPCHEAPYXO) September 30, 2018 Incidentally, in the same tweet storm, Banks also said Kesha was lying about being raped by producer Dr. Luke (Banks and Dr. Luke have collaborated in the past). “Dr Luke is not a rapist and I’m tired of being blamed of working with a rapist,” Banks wrote, adding, “Kesha has no evidence and a judge that said she LIED… and you all galvanize behind her. Foh!!!!! “Because if she was truly raped that would have been her first defense. I met DR Luke… HE IS PUNY compared to Kesha. You can LITERALLY blow on him and he will be sent flying. There’s no way little Luke raped big Kesha and didn’t get trampled. Plus I know her exes.” Another instance of a white woman using her inherent “victimhood” to con her way through life. I don’t give a fuck about Kesha. When has she EVER stood up for any black woman who was going through someshit?????????? — CHEAPYXO (@SHOPCHEAPYXO) September 30, 2018 Kesha is on video under oath admitting dr Luke never raped her… but for your own stupid sakes you continue to care about women’s rights with some vapid ass attempt to “cancel” dr Luke while you all shake your bussies to his music in the gay bar. FOH — CHEAPYXO (@SHOPCHEAPYXO) September 30, 2018 I would NEVER collab with a rapist. Dr Luke is not a rapist and I’m tired of being blamed of working with a rapist. — CHEAPYXO (@SHOPCHEAPYXO) September 30, 2018 Plus I’m tired of being expected to support white womens lies on the basis of being scared to seem like EYE have a character flaw for working someone who is NOT A RAPIST while these white women show no support for black women. Fuck that — CHEAPYXO (@SHOPCHEAPYXO) September 30, 2018 Cancel me again. I don’t care. — CHEAPYXO (@SHOPCHEAPYXO) September 30, 2018 Everyone gave me a HARD TIME with that Russell Crowe shit despite there being evidence and WITNESSES to confirm that they spit on me. Kesha has no evidence and a judge that said she LIED… and you all galvanize behind her. Foh!!!!! — CHEAPYXO (@SHOPCHEAPYXO) September 30, 2018 When I was date raped a few months ago EVERYONE SAID IT WAS A PUBLICITY STUNT. Yes that’s why I choose to speak out. A white woman lies and you automatically believe her but for whatever reason masculinize black women to the point that we MUST be lying when we’re MOST VULNERABLE https://t.co/9f0nfMBSSH — CHEAPYXO (@SHOPCHEAPYXO) September 30, 2018 You think some stupid ass social media support of a lying privileged white woman is enough to SAY that you care for women’s causes? I wish you all had this same energy for the COUNTLESS NON FAMOUS POOR BLACK TRANSWOMEN THAT GET MURDERED EVERYDAY — CHEAPYXO (@SHOPCHEAPYXO) September 30, 2018 Because if she was truly raped that would have been her first defense. I met DR Luke… HE IS PUNY compared to Kesha. You can LITERALLY blow on him and he will be sent flying. There’s no way little Luke raped big Kesha and didn’t get trampled. Plus I know her exes. https://t.co/06H8uoU6OL — CHEAPYXO (@SHOPCHEAPYXO) September 30, 2018 Source Quote
