Twitter Users Come For Azealia Banks For Her “Switching Up” On Cardi B In Her Twitter Posts

Azealia Banks is certainly not shy about speaking her mind and will stand by what she says. Banks recently got into a Twitter argument with two users who had an issue with the rapper speaking complimenting Cardi B’s song “Bodak Yellow,” even though Banks has dissed her in the past.

“Yo Bodak Yellow is really still a top-tier female rap record,” Banks’ tweet read. “It’s so f**king, NEW YORK.”

Twitter user @kvngsir” decided to call Banks out on her switcheroo act.

“You’ve dragged her for years, but all of a sudden you’re a big fan, switching like…,” the Twitter user wrote.

An hour later, Banks clapped back with, “It’s mad funny how fans be thinking they know what goes on behind the scenes. Or think artists care about what y’all think about industry we work in. I’ve always thought Bodak Yellow was fire. Plus, Cardi B’s personal, mental and cultural glow-up is solid.”

A different user, @britspepsi, then responded by posting a video of Banks theorizing that the music industry made Cardi B with the intent to prevent Black women from gaining any power in the industry and wrote, “This is you. Basically calling Cardi an industry plant.”

@kvngsir commented that the video wasn’t the only one where Banks denounced Cardi B.

The “212” rapper’s response to @britspepsi surprisingly wasn’t bashful. In fact, she gave Cardi B more props.

“[Sic] She was an industry plant, lmao,” she said. “But sis took advantage of the opportunity and rode that bitch the fuck out, assembled the right team, seized the moment and made herself a cultural mainstay. U have to respect it.”

The conversation then switched to Australian rapper Iggy Azalea, in which Banks has been vocal about not liking her and even accused her of cultural appropriation.
