Hip-hop has seen an encouragingly large amount of female artists break into the mainstream over the last few years and Azealia Banks believes she's at the forefront of the movement, talent wise.
The Harlem spitta made the bold statement on Saturday morning (June 22) via Instagram. Reposting a comment exchange she had with a fan who accused her of being talented but unlikable at times, Banks offered a detailed counter in the caption.
"Sad thing is I’m the most intelligent and THE MOST talented female rapper and have been for years," she wrote. "You all will find out when it is too late and I’ve married a Russian and get to raise my kids in a fancy Siberian underground bunker while you all scramble to get indoors for 6pm curfew under us martial law . Lmfao... fuck y’all ... don’t hate me hate your mother for not sending you to private and catholic school. Hate your very limited use of vocabulary. Hate the Board of education for failing you. Hate yourself for smoking hookah and paying fashion nova $90 for $15 clothes........ Azealia banks is not your enemy."
