Azealia Banks Attacked On Twitter Over 'The 8 White Identities'

Jan. 5, rapper Azealia Banks continued to address racism on her social media and posted a list of "The 8 White Identities" listed as:  "White Supremacist," "White Voyeurism," "White Privilege," "White Benefit," "White Confessional," "White Critical," "White Traitor" and "White Abolitionist."

The rap star tweeted that she was being "attacked" through her social media accounts for her strong stance on racism and opinions tweeted, "White people on Twitter are attacking me like black people are the only group of people who feel a way about whites" she explained that African American weren't the only race with the same feeling as her, "I promise you: EVERYONE FEELS VICTIMIZED BY THE WHITE MAN, Indians, native Americans, Asians, Latinos...... It's not just me lol."

 In December 2014, the "212" rapper addressed her concerns with smudging in Hip Hop in a tearful interview with Hot 97. She slammed Iggy Azalea's recent Grammy nomination for best rap album and says that the new star doesn't hold up to high standards to be nominated, "That Iggy Azalea sh*t is not better than any f*cking Black girl that's rapping today," she said.

"The Grammys are supposed to be accolades for artistic excellence. Iggy Azalea's not excellent...All it says to White kids is, 'You're great; you're amazing. You can do whatever you put your mind to and what it says to Black kids is, 'You don't have sh*t. You don't own sh*t, not even the sh*t you created for yourself," she told the radio hosts.

The 23-year-old compared the Hip Hop being the only thing she has to hold on to since African Americans still can receive reparations for slavery, "The basis of modern capitalism is slave labor...the selling and trading of slaves," she said tearfully. "There are still huge corporations that are still caking off this slave money...At the very f*cking least you owe me the right to my f*cking identity and to not exploit that sh*t. That's all we're holding on to with hip hop and rap."
