- someone earnestly in the first 20 replies, just watch.

I've found on FB (and occasionally on here) that some people defend Azealia Banks for any and everything she says/does. She could punch Obama in the face and they'd be like, "Well, what did Obama say first, though?" They like that she's a fighter, without acknowledging that maybe she just gets into all these spats because she's batshit crazy.

One would hope that no one would try to defend this behavior. But someone weirdly will, somehow or another.
12900215, Check me out at post #7 lol. Not defending her actions in the vid tho

12900133, She's probably right about dude violating, but she's also a little cray
Posted by flipnile, Tue Sep-22-15 02:01 PM
I wonder if she could have handled that shit differently.

She seems like the type to lean over and honk the horn from the passenger seat at a car full of gangsters (because they took to long to pull off at a green light), call them names out the window, then cry as you're thusly being pummeled by four dudes at once.


Edit: Her accent is FUCKING ANNOYING.

Posted by micMajestic, Tue Sep-22-15 02:42 PM
that to a man?

I've been on flights where people on connecting flights try to squeeze past. Shit is super annoying, which seems to fit Azealia's motif. But I've never though to impede the person from passing by.
That's the video that would allow me to properly assess the situation, not her acting out in the aftermath.

em a chicken wing at least.

IF you are in a rush, stand up and get as far to the front as you can. If other people are standing tho, you just got to wait.


If you really, really, really, need to get off the plane and squeeze past standing folks, you need to ultra apologetic before you squeeze by.

imho
12900289, Yeah what she said (if anything) before she tried to squeeze by makes

somewhat of a difference. And no doubt she seems to have a lot of difficulty with social interactions. But I just wonder if dude saw this skinny black girl trying to pass him and felt comfortable about getting aggressive with her.

12900392, I would have read her for filth had I been on the plane.
Posted by Moonlit_Force, Tue Sep-22-15 05:01 PM
Even after witnessing that the guy was in the wrong she would've been read.

Homegirl needs a reality check.

And I say that as someone who enjoys the hell out of her music.
12900727, I agree with Case.

It's an incredibly lousy rationale, and it may be completely disingenuous.

you know how white people do.
I can imagine some snobby ass French people "on a holiday",
taking there time blocking the fucking way,
especially when they see some little black lady waiting.
White people think their time is more important than yours...
12900348, That's pretty much where I'm at with it too
Posted by micMajestic, Tue Sep-22-15 04:01 PM

I'm not trying to give her a pass for all her bs, but I've experienced THIS so often that I have to wonder if it was a factor in how things played out.

12900359, Is it not standard protocol to wait your turn to exit the plane?
Posted by PimpTrickGangstaClik, Tue Sep-22-15 04:10 PM
People in the back wait until all the people in the front have gotten their stuff and moved through the aisle.

I probably would have given a little passive aggressive hip check if someone tried to skip the line
12900369, If I'm pull hella bags off the overhead, I let everyone pass...

I don't block the people that got their shit together already.

what does it cost you to step aside?

You fly coach/business class.. you wait your turn to get off. Plain and simple. If you're so high and mighty, bite the bullet and fly first class.
12903562, she told somebody on instagram,

followed by "keep trolling for d*ck on grindr. You’ll be murdered and stuffed under a truck somewhere soon."

Posted by dafriquan, Tue Sep-29-15 06:05 AM
As much as I like her music, she might be a three letter organization plant to delegitimize black and queer folk movements for equality. Either that or we are just enabling her infantile outbursts. Just because she occasionally says something we agree with about race or gender does not make up for the fact that she is wrong as hell most of the time.

Her music would have to be mind-blowing for her batshit-diva persona to even be halfway acceptable.

"Fucking faggot"? Really?

12903707, Does she not have anyone on her team to tell her to chill?
Posted by bwood, Tue Sep-29-15 06:56 AM
Her manager or publicist or someone in her squad never tells her to take it down a notch and fall back for a minute. Does she not have people like that around?

Azealia Banks Investigated in Alleged Security Guard Assault at Los Angeles Nightclub
The LAPD has opened a criminal battery investigation

http://pitchfork.com/news/62042-azealia-banks-investigated-in-alleged-security-guard-assault-at-los-angeles-nightclub/


Azealia Banks is being investigated by the LAPD for criminal battery after allegedly assaulting a security guard at a Los Angeles nightclub, TMZ reports.

The incident took place at Break Room 86 in late September. Security guards claim that Banks tried to pull a fire alarm after she and her friends were asked to leave the club for acting "unruly," according to TMZ. "A security guard grabbed Banks as she was messing with the fire control valves, and that's when Banks and her crew jumped the guy," TMZ reports.

A video released by TMZ captured the incident, and can be viewed here.

Earlier this year, Banks was involved in an altercation on an airplane. Yesterday, Banks cancelled her upcoming tour.
