Azealia Banks Says ‘I Really Want Fake Tits’ After Playboy Nude Photos Go Viral
Azealia Banks Goes Nude, Talks Practising Witchcraft & More In Playboy Magazine
Rapper Azealia Banks opened up about her body issues after releasing her nudes through Playboy magazine and says that she plans on getting breast implants one day.
On wanting to be like Jay Z:
Thatās the only person I have my eye set on. The race thing always comes up, but I want to get there being very black and proud and boisterous about it. You get what I mean? A lot of times when youāre a black woman and youāre proud, thatās why people donāt like you. In American society, the game is to be a nonthreatening black person. Thatās why you have Pharrell or Kendrick Lamar saying, āHow can we expect people to respect us if we donāt respect ourselves?ā Heās playing that non-threatening black man sh-t, and that gets all the white soccer moms going, āWe love him.ā Even Kanye West plays a little bit of that gameāāPlease accept me, white world.ā Jay Z hasnāt played any of those games, and thatās what I like.
On religion and practicing āwitchcraftā:
I donāt want to say, but Iāll tell you about one form of the religion. Itās called 21 Divisions. When they brought the slaves over to the Caribbean, they syncretized all their African gods with Catholic saints. So in 21 Divisions there are black gods and goddesses, and my mother practiced that when I was little. Whenever problems happened, we turned to 21 Divisions to fix it. Itās funny, because my friends on the block in Harlem, their mothers would be like, āOh, you f-cking with that witchcraft. You working roots.ā You can cleanse people with root work or do bad things to them. But 21 Divisions is celestial.
I donāt understand how someone could be an atheist. Think about God as software, right? If you were to look at Godās face, your head would explode. Because your head is a calculator, and the amount of information that would be embedded in his face would fit only on a Google-size data center. Your head cannot handle that much information. Stop looking for God.
On currently not having a lot of sex:
I should be getting d-ck all the time. I like to f-ck. [laughs] But I canāt just meet a guy and f-ck him. Iām too afraid of getting herpes or some shit. I like to feel them out, and then I start talking about my black female problems, and we get into a conversation about race, and then we disagree and donāt have another date. Whatever. Iāll just hang out with my mother. Itās okay, because p-ssy is way more sacred than penis.
March 18, the Harlem native posted a note on her Instagram talking about her petite frame writing, “I would just like to say that I’m SO happy I haven’t had any work done on my body yet. Now-a-days literally everyone has felt pressure to do their nose, or get fat transfer or get ass implants. I’m absolutely not knocking it as it my dream to have big squishy silicone tidies, But… (LOL) I love my slim physique because it looks lean and healthy. It looks youthful and I think it’s good for girls to hold on to their youth for as long as long as they can (I really want fake tits).”
The outspoken rap star posed nude for the April issue of Playboy and decided to give her fans a first look of her nudes on her Twitter account.
The rap star known for shaking up the social media world with her boisterous attitude about racism and “no f**ks given” attitude about her views concerning Australian rap star, Iggy Azalea, she opened up about her sexuality, abuse, and why she hates “fat white Americans.”
Check out what the “212” rapper had to say:
What’s the longest relationship you’ve had?
Four years. It started when I was 17. He was 43. There’s something very wrong with a man that age who wants to date a 17-year-old girl. I didn’t know how to shave my bush and shit like that. I had a hairy pussy. I didn’t know how to wear perfume. I had neon pink barrettes in my hair. And as “212” started to pop off and my career started to happen, he became jealous. He choked me and beat me up, and of course you should not be fucking with a man who puts his hands on you, but I was stupid and young.
Is there someone whose career you’d like to emulate?
Jay Z. That’s the only person I have my eye set on. The race thing always comes up, but I want to get there being very black and proud and boisterous about it. You get what I mean? A lot of times when you’re a black woman and you’re proud, that’s why people don’t like you. In American society, the game is to be a nonthreatening black person. That’s why you have Pharrell or Kendrick Lamar saying, “How can we expect people to respect us if we don’t respect ourselves?” He’s playing that nonthreatening black man shit, and that gets all the white soccer moms going, “We love him.” Even Kanye West plays a little bit of that game-“Please accept me, white world.” Jay Z hasn’t played any of those games, and that’s what I like.
Do you want to leave the U.S.?
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.
If people don’t like you, does that mean they’re racist?
No, not at all. There’s misogyny, and then there’s something called misogynoir [a term coined by writer Moya Bailey to describe “the unique ways in which black women are pathologized in popular culture”]. We have all these stereotypes in society: The gay man is a faggot and he’s over-the-top, or you’re an untrustworthy cracker, or you’re a loud black bitch. All these things exist for a reason, you know what I’m saying? Yeah, I am loud and boisterous.
This has been an issue ever since hip-hop spread outside New York City. It’s a black art form that’s subject to being critiqued by people who don’t understand it.
When you rip a people from their land, from their customs, from their culture-there’s still a piece of me that knows I’m not supposed to be speaking English, I’m not supposed to be worshipping Jesus Christ. All this shit is unnatural to me. People will be like, “Oh, you’re ignorant because you don’t speak proper English.” No. This is not mine. I don’t even want this shit, so I’m going to do whatever the fuck I want with this language. I’m going to call you a fag or a cracker or a bitch.
