Ketchup I'm hot, dog Frankfurters, you're Nathan But relish hatin'

Why does the UN need to raise money for ebola? Can't the gov just print the damn dollars themselves and get this done already.

The beats are like scripts, and the raps are my monologue.

I have never felt the pain of not being white the way I've felt it since I've been a public figure/part of this entertainment industry.

Your problems with me are not my problems, those are your problems.

I've been making music for a while. And I could read about myself on the Internet for a while.

I don't turn to anyone for advice. I do what I want.

I'm also not going to explain something just because I said it in a rap. Take what you want from it.

If you're mad at someone for being excited and inspired by your art then you're doing it wrong.

White boys do eat pussy better than everyone else, though, I will say that. Maybe it's those thin white-boy lips!

I don't want to be nice. Nice girls can only get what they're offered.

I’m not trying to be, like, the bisexual, lesbian rapper. I don’t live on other people’s terms.

Sometimes I feel like I float in and out of different personalities.

I'm tired of having to consult a group of old white guys about my black girl craft. They don't even know what they're listening for or to.

When I rap, it's just an extension of how I speak, and that's how I talk. If you don't like it, don't listen.

Yes! I hate everything about this country. 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.

You got a lot but you just waste all yourself. They'll forget your name soon and won't nobody be to blame but yourself.

Nowadays when I walk around, I get noticed, which is kind of weird.

Black culture is cool, but black issues sure aren't, huh?

Life is the same. It would be the same thing if I were still working at Starbucks, having to deal with a manager, and a shift manager. This is a job.

The Grammys are supposed to be awards for artistic excellence… Iggy Azalea’s not excellent.

No offence to Nicki Minaj, but her career has essentially been a Lil’ Kim tribute

Azealia Banks: Biography and Life Work

Azealia Banks was a notable Rapper. The story of Azealia Banks began on May 31, 1991 in New York City, U.S..

Azealia Amanda Banks is an American rapper, singer, and songwriter. Her debut single " 212 " became a defining song of the 2010s and appeared on Rolling Stone 's list of the " 500 Greatest Songs of All Time " in 2021. Banks is also known for her controversial social media presence and outspoken views, which have received significant publicity.

Philosophical Views and Reflections

In July 2024, Banks attended a rally in support of Trump's 2024 presidential campaign in Florida, despite having previously offered her support for Ron De Santis and his campaign . The day before the election, Banks stated that she would be voting for Kamala Harris due to concerns over Trump's close ties to Elon Musk , who she said "belongs nowhere near American politics". However, on November 6, she claimed to have "lied" and voted for Trump—a decision she later regretted.

Banks has been defended to various degrees by multiple outlets, with Crack labelling her "misunderstood", and Dazed pointing to her struggles with bipolar disorder , with both publications tying in the struggles many Black artists face in the music industry. In June 2025, she won a Sinai Award from online magazine Tablet for being one of the "12 people who made the world freer" that year, as the "original uncancellable rapper". Spiked has also praised Banks for her opinions on Zionism and Israel.
