The beef between Nicki Minaj and Megan Thee Stallion has become such a Black cultural moment that rappers who aren’t even involved are throwing in their two cents. And no one gives two cents like Harlem rapper Azealia Banks.
Now let’s get this straight, Banks shares her opinion on pretty much everything, so her commenting on the beef that everyone has been talking about for the last week isn’t surprising. But what she specifically has to say has people’s ears perked up.
On Thursday morning, the “Luxury” rapper posted a series of videos on her Instagram story, where she was heard weighing in on the nasty feud between Minaj and Megan. While she made multiple points for why she thinks the two talented MCs are beefing, the most noteworthy was when she brought up Jay-Z. And trust us, it’s not for the reason you might think.
To begin, Banks said, “Originally I was just going to stay out of this because it’s another day, another female rap beef. Who really cares? But I think there’s some interesting parts to this that everyone’s missing. This isn’t about Meg collaborating with Cardi. This is about Jay-Z. … Jay-Z has this way of presenting himself in the culture as a Daddy Warbucks type of figure.”
She goes on to make the wild claim that “six or seven times out of ten,” women who choose rap as a career probably don’t have a father figure. This is why Banks thinks that Minaj (and other female MCs) look at Hov for guidance and mentorship.
She later added, “Jay-Z has kinda positioned himself in this way where almost every type of female urban artist feels she needs his approval of sorts. I could just low-key feel she’s felt slighted by Jay. Just by his association with Meek Mill. But at the same time, Minaj wants to wiggle her way in bad. That’s what this beef is about. She wants to be a Roc Nation girl so f***ing bad.”
Banks later explained that Hov hasn’t “co-signed” a female MC in a while, and the fact that Megan is with Roc-Nation pissed Minaj off.
