Azealia Banks is at it again, setting her sights on Beyonce’s new whiskey brand, SirDavis. This time, the New York rapper took to Twitter to express her disapproval of the name, describing it as “ghetto.”
Banks began her Twitter rant on Thursday night, saying, “I’m sorry Beyonce I love you down, but ‘SIRDAVIS’ is a horrible name for a luxury spirits brand. It’s so ghetto. It’s giving 1980’s hood francophile ‘Latoya, Shaniqua’ teas. Change the name to ‘Renaissance.’ That’s actually a marketing slay.”
She continued to criticize the name, adding, “Renaissance whisky gives me classy successful handsome older black man with the good cologne & the good teeth / spent $500,000 buying out some superbowl box seats / expensive legacy d**k. ‘Sir Davis’ is giving southern comfort / e&J with some matted dreads and dry knuckles.”
This isn’t the first time Banks has gone after Beyonce. Previously, she accused the singer and her husband, Jay-Z, of launching a “smear campaign” against her for her criticism of Beyonce’s country music phase.
Banks didn’t stop there. She also jumped into the ongoing drama between Ice Spice and Cleotrapa. She tweeted her support for Cleotrapa, stating she didn’t like how everyone was trying to make her look bad. Banks even invited Cleotrapa to perform with her on Halloween at Terminal 5 in New York City. She promised Cleotrapa her own space to glam and complete respect.
The feud between Ice Spice and Cleotrapa centers on accusations of bad treatment during their tour. Banks’ intervention adds another layer to an already heated situation. This latest rant is just one of many from Banks, who is known for her outspoken and often controversial opinions. It’s unclear what her next target will be, but it’s safe to say we’ll be hearing from her again soon.
Azealia Banks never shies away from controversy, and her latest target, Beyonce’s whiskey brand, is just the latest chapter in her ongoing saga of outspoken opinions. Whether it’s about liquor branding or supporting fellow artists, Banks continues to make her voice heard.
