Rapper Azealia Banks Is Playboy’s New Cover Star And She Says She Hates “Fat White Americans”

You won’t be surprised to hear the issue of race came up. She told the magazine:

Asked why she always brings up the topic, Banks retorted: "Because y’all motherf---ers still owe me reparations! [laughs] That’s why it’s still about race. Really, the generational effects of Jim Crow and poverty linger on. As long as I have my money, I’m getting the f--- out of here and I’m gonna leave y’all to your own devices."

In fact, the Harlem-raised singer says she hates the United States of America — and a very specific group of its citizens. "I hate everything about this country," she railed. "Like, I hate fat white Americans. All the people who are crunched into the middle of America, the real fat and meat of America, are these racist conservative white people who live on their farms. Those little teenage girls who work at Kmart and have a racist grandma—that’s really America.

Picking up on many of the themes she discussed at length in this radio interview from December which brought her to tears, she talked about how black people in America had been ripped “from their land, from their customs, from their culture”. She added, “There’s still a piece of me that knows I’m not supposed to be speaking English, I’m not supposed to be worshipping Jesus Christ. All this shit is unnatural to me.”

Banks, 23, who's famously ignited feuds with fellow stars like Iggy Azalea, Lady Gaga, Eminem, and Nicki Minaj, targeted yet another young pop star in her latest rant. "It’s always about race," she complained to Playboy. "Lorde can run her mouth [on Twitter] and talk s--- about all these other biitches, but y’all aren’t saying she’s angry. If I have something to say, I get pushed into the corner."

Now that she's all grown up, Banks has been questioning all things she's learned throughout her life. "In my adulthood I’m having to destroy all these things society really wants you to think. The history textbooks in the U.S. are the worst if you’re not white," she explained. "'The white man gave you the vote. He Christianized you and taught you how to speak English. If it weren’t for him, you’d still be living in a hut.'"

Banks claimed that she, personally, should be educating young minds. "I could write a book about why black people shouldn’t be Christians. Young black kids should have their own special curriculum that doesn’t start from the boat ride over from Africa," she wrote. "All you know as a black kid is we came over here on a boat, we didn’t have anything, and we still don’t have anything. But what was happening in Africa? What culture were we pulled away from? That information is vital to the survival of a young black soul."

The sole hip-hop superstar that Banks wants to emulate is none other than Jay Z. "That’s the only person I have my eye set on," she shared. "The race thing always comes up, but I want to get there being very black and proud and boisterous about it. You get what I mean? A lot of times when you’re a black woman and you’re proud, that’s why people don’t like you. In American society, the game is to be a nonthreatening black person. That’s why you have Pharrell or Kendrick Lamar saying, 'How can we expect people to respect us if we don’t respect ourselves?' He’s playing that nonthreatening black man s---, and that gets all the white soccer moms going, 'We love him.'"

Banks, in turn, said Jay's fellow collaborator Kanye West is at fault for playing along. "Even Kanye West plays a little bit of that game," she said, while mocking Kim Kardashian's husband: "'Please accept me, white world.'" Unlike West, "Jay Z hasn’t played any of those games," she noted, "and that’s what I like."

If she's so concerned about the culture she was ripped from, nobody is stopping her from going back to Africa and living in a hut.

She hates white people because they are racist.

Duh ladies, she is Hip Hop's Queen. Hello, have you all been living under a rock!







Have no clue who she is!

Re: Rapper Azealia Banks Is Playboy’s New Cover Star And She Says She Hates “Fat White Americans”

She doesn't like America? Well, as my 92 year old grandmother loves to say - there's a PLANE leaving EVERYDAY - GET ON ONE!!

I'm sure she would have no problem pushing her crap music in Hanoi or Moscow.
