Listen to the new Azealia Banks song and read her bizarre tirade against the Stone Roses

by Tyler Munro

Crazy person Azealia Banks is at it again, this time taking to Twitter to talk a little trash about… the Stone Roses. She’s deleted the posts, but since this is the Internet we can share her incoherent ramblings with you today (via Pitchfork). Here’s what she had to say about the reunited Brit-rockers, with whom she shared the stage with this weekend at Australia’s Future Music Festival.

Fuck those old saggy white niggas stone roses. I wish them nothing but excrement and death. Wow! I must really fucking be a superstar… You’ve got an established band trying to sabotage my lil rap bitch shine. Wow a bunch of old white men trying to bully a young black girl…. What the fuck else is new in this world ???

Remember when Azealia Banks was new on the scene and endearingly vulgar and charming? Can we go back to that? Because with every delay of Broke with Expensive Taste seems to come another silly beef or outburst, and at this point her shtick is wearing pretty thin. Not that there isn’t light at the end of the tunnel, of course: here’s her new single, “Yung Rapunxel,” an aggressive, scream-filled track that perfectly fits its obnoxious and borderline terrifying artwork (up top). This track was originally due out on March 26th, meaning she’s actually ahead of schedule for once, though we can’t actually confirm that this’ll be on her new album if and when it drops.
