I honestly would be the last person to defend Azealia Banks who artistically died to me around 2014 and then several times again BUT

cancelling her or any artist last minute especially when she’s actually been pretty quiet lately makes them look more ignorant and messy than her. extremely unprofessional. maybe next time have some spine and principles BEFORE you book an artist?

First, she says she was never even aware she was booked. They didn’t even connect with her. I know that’s not convenient for this thread, but hey :oops:

She’s been tearing Jk Rowling apart these last few days as well. She’s complicated and she says a lot of insane and offensive stuff, but I don’t get how some of the things said about her online, and even in this thread are okay. Respond to insults with even nastier insults? Wishing her failure, and misery? Because of trollish tweets? Meanwhile Trisha Paytas, and HRH Beauty are uplifted and celebrated? It’s odd. Azealia is an ally regardless of what everyone says. She’s had problematic takes, but she’s still a huge supporter, and an icon. She’s given Disease more promo than interscope has.

Labelling everything as trollish tweets is not an honest argument imo. She has a long history of hateful tweets that won't be washed away just because she simps Gaga now or because she called out JK Rowling. 

Honestly, all I see is virtual signaling because her behavior is finally catching up to her, losing a festival spot is a prime example of that.

I don't subscribe to the belief that people can't change but she keeps having problematic behaviour:

This is very recent.

Even if she's trying to be edgy/funny, not everybody will take it like that :noparty:

she's had MANY chances at redemption, she can rot

you mention trisha paytas not getting the same heat, that's because trisha has stopped being a troll a long time ago and is focused on raising a child instead being a fool on twitter

mother, what must i do?

I commend Azealia for thinking and speaking individually. She literally has a trans sibling. If you think she doesn't support LGBT+ you lack nuance. She's definitely a flawed individual but she is smart and says a lot of based things. So tired of this political climate where you're not allowed to say anything out of the ordinary, gone are the days of common sense and self-criticism. I am well aware I'm not allowed to have my own thoughts on this forum hence I never joined for years.

Girl she is allowed to say it and we know that because she HAS said it. Doesn't mean anybody is obliged to continue working with her if they're repulsed by her behaviour

You're 'not allowed to have your own thoughts' on this forum so didn't join... but here you are posting on it anyway freely expressing ur thoughts...

Freedom of speech does not mean everybody has to just shut up and accept ignorance views. What makes ur views so special nobody is allowed to push back at them?

Redemption is something a person generally has to earn through action :vegas:

While I don't think she has done anything that would make her completely irredeemable, considering she hasn't done anything good either, nor changed or even attempted to change her heinous behavior, I don't think her redemption arc will be coming very soon :alsemanche:

Men are naturally more dominating, aggressive, and logical thinking because we have balls.

You're right! But I was genuinely uneasy commenting because I thought I'll immediately get banned into oblivion. Not everything she says is ignorant. And her bitterness is understandable, in my opinion she is one of the few pop artists who are not out of touch with reality and stuck to her values and was therefore shunned out because she wasn't following the labels playbook like most of them do.

 

Edit: glamorising obesity is ignorant so again, Azealia's rough statement is actually based

Letting obese people be part of a MV ain't even "glamorizing" obesity... Except if you think that you either hide them or don't which would automatically somehow promote obesity... Which makes no sense.

I'm afraid you felt for the fake points from people who just want to bash obese people and make it okay.

Dude that could be said even about the most ignorant person ever.

She discriminated many times and none of her valid Twitter points were really new on the platform tbh.

She has a trans sibling yet voted Trump despite the man surrounding himself with the worst transphobes who already start their plan rn...

If it's not "out of touch"...

Nah she was shunned because she discriminated many times on top of other ugly moments and even most of her die hard stans were over it lol...

Not because of any "values".

If not being nasty a billion times in a row is "the label playbook" then that's really the bare minimum tbh.
