In a social media storm that fans won’t forget soon, Wale and Azealia Banks reignited their ongoing feud, sparking fiery exchanges on X, formerly Twitter. It all began on a seemingly innocent note when Wale tweeted, “I’m not sellin my soul . I’m not playin them other games either .. ain’t no ‘era’ I ain’t never stopped…hope this helps wit the nostalgia bait.”
But Azealia Banks, never one to hold back, fired shots at Wale’s rap career. “Nigga, the only hot song you ever made is ‘ridin in that black joint,'” she declared. Her remarks didn’t stop there as she criticized his style and persona, attributing them to his African roots in a way that was anything but flattering.
Wale, responding with a lighthearted tone, knew how to turn the tables. He mentioned a festival where both T-Pain and himself were performing. Laughing off Banks’ comments, he quipped, “Ngl … the chicken butcher lady sayin my only hit is off a video game I never played before is funny af.”
Not one to back down, Banks’ fiery response included personal digs about Wale’s alleged ‘period panty fetish’ and his lack of a distinct musical identity. She recalled past encounters and took the chance to ridicule his past performances and collaborations.
Wale’s response highlighted Banks’ tendency to criticize everyone around her. He fired back with, “My favorite thing on this app is you telling everybody what they should be doing…life is hard af, and yet you find time to tell everybody everywhere all the time how to do things.”
Banks didn’t appreciate the critique, and her response was even more venomous. She accused Wale of pandering to white producers and poked fun at his impact in the music world.
Their spat is a continuation of a decade-old disagreement when Wale and Banks clashed over her comments on Black men ‘selling out’ Black women. This latest exchange seems to be another chapter in their long-running saga, filled with heated words and sharp retorts.
This public spat leaves little doubt that the fierce rivalry between Wale and Azealia Banks is far from over.
