Leave it to Azealia Banks to take getting nominated for a BET Award as a reason for slander. The outspoken rapper took to Twitter to criticize the BET Awards and its Best Female Hip Hop Artist category.
The problem, for Banks, is that Nicki Minaj has won the aforementioned category five years in a row.
“I really hate getting nominated for @bet awards. They’re so bogus,” tweeted Banks on Monday morning (May 18). “The female rap award at the bet awards goes to nicki every year, it’s not even a real award anymore lol it’s a bit of a running joke.”
Banks also went on to be critical of “urban” and “Black” media for inevitably covering her struggle.
“3,2,1 all the urban media sites gonna run a headline saying I’m throwing shots,” she wrote. “Black media is so stupid and pointless. What a sh*tty cycle.”
This is where we mention that Iggy Azalea doesn’t have any trouble beating Nicki Minaj for awards. Is that Black media’s fault as well?
Does Banks have beef with the Billboard Music Awards, too?
