Azealia Banks is known for her unapologetic rants on Twitter, often targeting various white rappers, and her latest comments sparked a reaction from Wale. She’s built a reputation for voicing her thoughts on the industry, whether people agree or not. Despite being a talented artist, her outspoken nature often overshadows her music. Recently, she made waves by criticizing Eminem. This has many wondering if the Detroit rapper will respond the same way Wale did. While many might choose to ignore her, Banks’ fiery commentary always seems to land her in the spotlight.

Despite being a talented artist in her own right, Banks’ sharp commentary tends to overshadow her music. While her tweets frequently address larger societal issues, they often come at the expense of dragging other musicians, sometimes unfairly. However, her bold and controversial remarks are what keep her relevant in the conversation, whether people agree with her or not.

Recently, after a Twitter user praised Eminem, Banks wasted no time in voicing her criticism of the Detroit rapper. “Nobody wanna hear that school shooter music,” she tweeted, expressing her disregard for Eminem’s brand of anger-filled lyrics. She added that his music didn’t resonate with her or many others, stating, “This is hip hop, we don’t care or relate to white male anger and raps about wanting to kill your mother.” While she admitted that “Stan” was iconic, she criticized Eminem for sticking to dark, personal themes in his music. “One would think that at this point in his career he’d challenge himself to write even just ONE song that wasn’t about his mental illnesses,” Banks remarked. She concluded with, “Eminem is always going to be that mad white guy nobody wanna f**k,” and boldly declared, “But Vanilla Ice was and is still the best white rapper of all time. Argue with ur mom.”

Though many rappers have clapped back at Banks in the past, Eminem is unlikely to engage. He is focused on his family and enjoying grandparenthood. While Banks’ criticisms are nothing new, they’re often delivered with a fierceness. This sets her apart from the typical rap feuds.
