When a largely queer userbase sees a thread devoted to a woman who just spent all of last week sh*tting on trans women, we sort of have a moral obligation to tell the people continuing to support her that they're trash for doing so.

Imagine selling out trans women (and all of the other disaffected minority groups that she's attacked) for some "bops." The fact that you don't care says a lot about what kind of person you are.

I'm not too worried about the problematic things that artists say. If they make good music, I'll listen to it and enjoy it. If they physically harm another person, like sexual assault or domestic abuse, that's a different story. I will never, not even for a second, sell out trans women or forget what they've done for the LGBT community and continue to do. Azealia has given her time, money & opportunities to a few trans women she's known personally. Her original CheapyXo partner who recently passed was a trans women she helped from being homeless and jobless. Azealia says a lot of unruly things, but actions speak louder than words.

"In isolation" as if it her music isn't representative of her perspective, doesn't have her name on it, and send her coins every time you chose to ignore her bigotry while streaming.  The mental gymnastics y'all AB fans will resort to to try to justify supporting her is unbelievable. And I know you specifically have been in these threads repeatedly just in the last few weeks calling her Trump-supporting *ss a "queen."

Sis it's called ironic humour, she doesn't even have 10k on insta, she's hardly a queen. I doubt many people here are actual AB stans, unless people are actually paying for her soap bars or for her shows give them a break.

She's a huge troll. She hates on almost every group conceivable at the flick of a switch. She called Irish women ugly vitamin deficient inbred oompa-loompa looking spray tanned crazy looking b*tches  with scurvy (did she lie.. ??????)  and then proceeds to tell us to all go die in a famine. Like it's offensive. She is offensive and her comments are awful but if you know what she's like, you expect this kind of sh*t from her so it's less offensive ane more funny tbh. I think the way she body shames  trans women is downright awful and it isn't funny but she's said so much you just get to a point where you shrug it off as just being the "Azealia" thing to do. She almost has made bigotry a brand. Doesn't make it okay but it's her... it probably stems from mental health issues, which still doesn't excuse it but it does stop people from taking her seriously. Basically she's a JOKE..... that makes bops.

So:

1. She had a trans friend, so she's allowed to attack trans women online and 

2. Unless someone physically or sexually assaults another person, they get a pass for every bigoted thing that comes out of their mouth.

I genuinely can't imagine living my life like that. A white gay putting his superficial enjoyment of house music over the protection of the rest of the community, convincing himself that he gets to forgive someone for berating trans women online and threatening to kill other people online because he likes her music... a walking cliché.

Perhaps you are unaware of her history of physical violence.

For example, the time she slashed her sister’s throat, arms, and hands with a box cutter:

Attcackig a security guard, and flight attendant:

But like, she makes bops, so who cares if she slashes her sister’s throat with her chicken killin’ knife? lol

If I canceled every artist for every problematic thing that they've said that has bothered me, I wouldn't even stan gaga anymore. You calling my enjoyment for her music a 'superficial enjoyment of house music' really shows how much knowledge you lack on her music and house music, and also how much you've stereotyped white gays into something so universal like enjoying  house music. Get over yourself.

I’m well aware but if you don’t like someone you really don’t have to come and bash everyone who likes her music on this thread by being rude. You know you can separate someone’s behaviors from their art. 

The fact that you get more hot and bothered by people being "rude" to her than her actual actions is astounding lol 

apparently she gets a pass for being extremely rude and disrespectful because she makes music? Awesome lol

She fought her sister sooo long ago and they're both fine with each other to this day. Not to mention her untreated mental illnesses at the time. And both of the air flight attendant instances were because people were mistreating her, and there's witness accounts to that.

[Wolf Boy 3,270]

Let me guess, it will sound like vogue/house music from 1992?

[DpHitch1992 1,158]

Hopefully this is a sign for a fantasea 2 release! Her attitude might be terrible but her music definitely isn't! 

[Boyboi12 2,125]

I been dying to hear this record  I can’t wait. 

[Lottie Winters 1,628]

Queen of music! Coming back to save the gays from mediocrity and coformity with iconic heavenly bops.

If anyone out there is still concerned about or questioning her contributions to queer culture look no further than her discography, bussy soap, and her iconic periscopes where she wears a busted weave smoking bluntz with her moisturizing gloves on previewing her new music. Love and light!

[Ziggy 11,938]

Waiting for her to cancel this like Fantasea Pt. 2 

[Reginald 13,841]

 SEX KITTEN 

[Dominic 11,922]

Riiiiiight. I hope it's more like 1991, that's if it even gets released.

She doesn't get a pass. No one is saying what she does is okay we're just recognising she's awful while still appreciating the sonic quality of her music. Maybe we should feel bad for liking the art of someone that messed up and hateful, what does it say about us? Tbh I don't feel the hateful attitude come across in her songs so it's easy to ignore she's actually like that.
