Rapper Azealia Banks needs her mouth washed out with soap because of all the filth that comes out of it – especially in her latest Twitter rant against former Alaskan Gov. Sarah Palin.
Banks tweeted the following – and warning – it’s graphic.
“[Palin] needs to have her hair shaved off to a buzz cut, get headf—-d by a big veiny, ashy, black d— then be locked in a cupboard…Let’s find the biggest burliest blackest negroes and let them run a train on her.” She also said it should be filmed and put online.
Banks joins the company of former MSNBCer Martin Bashir in the ranks of people who have wished vile things to be done to Mrs. Palin. At least Bashir, however, issued a full apology that noted that his comment was absolutely inexcusable.
Ms. Banks's disgusting and vile rant was in response to Palin allegedly saying, “…black people willingly accepted slavery.” The only problem is that quote came from a satirical website. She has since deleted the tweets.
Banks’ tried to play off her Palin remarks by referencing that she has a white boyfriend –and then sort of offered an "apology."
"In my honest defense, i was completely kidding. I happen to have a really crass, New-York-City sense of humor," wrote Banks, in a meandering apology that attempted to define Palin's “je ne sais quoi," aimed for solidarity against "censorship" and clarified that her "joke" tweets referred to group sex "NOT" rape.
Then, in a kicker to her "sincerest" apology, Banks added: "If Bristol Palin listened to my music she probably wouldn’t have all those (expletive) kids!!!"
Palin refused to accept Banks' apology, saying she was sick and tired of the unanswered threats and attacks against my family and me." She issued the following statement to People magazine:
So, for the first time I'm going to enjoy the only retribution some protected 'celebrities' seem to understand – I'm suing Azealia Banks and can't wait to share my winnings with others who have gone defenseless against lies and dangerous attacks far too long.
This isn’t the first time Banks has made controversial comments.– She once told Playboy that white conservatives are racist people who live on farms, that African-Americans are owed reparations for slavery, and that she hates “everything about this country.”
Banks also once infamously tweeted that she “might have to kill one of these crackers in their sleep,” after a grand jury decided not to indict former Ferguson police officer Darren Wilson in the death of black teenager Michael Brown.
