*Azealia Banks called Kanye “Ye” West a “fu-ing idiot” in a new wide-ranging interview about her new deal with Parlophone Records.
“I feel like Kanye has made it so garbage to be an entertainer with any opinion,” she told U.K.’s Guardian. Both artists reportedly collaborated in 2012 on “a handful of never-released songs”per the publication.
Banks believes Ye went too far when he revealed during a 2020 presidential campaign rally that he pressured his ex-wife Kim Kardashian to abort their first child.
“You’re a fu—ing idiot for basically sacrificing the mental health of your daughter,” said Banks of Ye and Kim’s nine-year-old daughter North West.

“Just because you can’t get attention from Kim Kardashian, you turn it on your fu–ing daughter. Kanye, you’re an abusive asshole and you’re a pussy for picking on that little-ass girl,” Banks said. “You are the last person we need to hear from about Black fatherhood and the Black family unit.”
Elsewhere in the interview, Banks noted her disdain for Los Angeles because the so-called progressive city is too “woke.”
“Every which way I turn [in LA] there’s a Black Lives Matter sign,” she said. “There are no Latino Lives Matter signs. That’s not to negate any of the very real issues that Black people in America face, but in a rich state like California, in a neighborhood like Silver Lake – here’s Jenny with her fu–in’ like (uses Valley girl accent) biodynamic wine bar and her vegan cafe. She’s got a Black Lives Matter sign in the window, but sis, did you pay attention to papi who delivered the milk? Did he get a free cup of coffee? I had to go because I can’t do this – either COVID was gonna kill me, or depression. I’m going to fu–ing Miami.”
Banks feels life, for her, is “way safer” in Florida where people “mind their fu–in’ business,” she said.
