Azealia Banks hasn’t been able to make her career work, so instead she’s decided to become the Stacey Dash of the music world. Banks took to Instagram following the election to congratulate Donald Trump, whom she’d endorsed earlier this year, then abandoned. “First off, I would like to apologize to Donald Trump for all the stupid jokes I made. (I was kidding). secondly, I would like to apologize for all the other times I was dumb enough to let the liberal media sway my opinion of you. Thirdly I’m fucking proud as F–K of you,” she wrote, before adding that being a Gemini from New York, winning the presidency, and beating the media were reasons she’s so proud. The rapper then took to Facebook to rant about Beyoncé, Jay Z, Hillary Clinton, and Pharrell: “I’m really laughing because jayz and Beyoncé really were up there shucking and bucking for Hillary and she STILL lost. She had Pharrell old jiminy criket looking ass up there with his sambo hat on going hard in the paint. Bitches was not in formation.” As one fan wrote on her Facebook post, “I think is time for you to stop hating and do something with your life.” We couldn’t agree more.
