"someone should kick your ass, and punch you right in your stupid smiling cracker face."

Looks like she also has a problem communicating with others...

Banks has also had minor online spats with Kreayshawn, Dominique Young Unique, Lil' Kim, Nicki Minaj, Jim Jones, Angel Haze, Baauer, Diplo, Rita Ora, ASAP Rocky, Lily Allen, Lady Gaga, Pharrell, Action Bronson, Lupe Fiasco, and Perez Hilton.

Mitchell Sunderland

Mitchell Sunderland, blogger and Vice associate editor, wrote a piece titled "My Bizarre Twitter Beef with Azealia Banks and Her Homophobia." In response to the piece, Banks tweeted at Sunderland, "do you know that your mother pushed you out of a pussy?" The two engaged in a heated exchange and traded barbs over a period of days, with Banks stating, "and even if i am a homophobe… so wat? i still make more $ than you.. still have an extra hole.. and still own everything."[83][84] In response, Queerty posted an article titled "Azealia Banks Says She’s Too Rich To Care If You Think She’s A Homophobe".[85]

She's also very fond of the "C" word, but brushes it off because for her, it means something entirely else.
