Azalea Banks is coming after Matty Healy.
The 31-year-old “212” superstar shared her thoughts about the 34-year-old The 1975 singer, who has been dominating the headlines lately for his rumored relationship with Taylor Swift as well as his recent controversial podcast appearance where Ice Spice was mocked.
Taking to Instagram, Azalea wrote:
“Does Matt Healy know that no one actually thinks The 1975 makes good music and that he’s a lame poser with a trash cliche band name that actually means nothing and he’s clearly so pressed that a Black girl who knows nothing about him or his music is making more moves and money than him.
Does he know that Black women are more coveted in today’s industry because there’s BIG BUSINESS in female rap. He is so obviously weak in the knees, thin-jawed and drug addicted that it’s easy to catch his crusty a– lackin.”
She went on to say:
“The outrageous small white opinionated male musician thing works for Ariel Pink and Ariel Pink only. The 1975 better go somewhere with their post-The Academy Is bulls–t. (We love The Academy Is) but y’all are clearly reaching for a Death From Above 1979 aesthetic that you’re just never gonna get.”
Azalea pointedly told Matty:
“you’re not a star, nor are you good at whatever this crappy a– mid-2000′s indie pitchfork darling fantasy you’re trying to sell, Ice Spice has MILES more originality. than you will ever. The 1975 is on nobody’s radar babe, maybe fat emo teenagers but no we are not checkin for you boo.”
She wrote on another slide:
“Matt Healy is one shared needle away from tetanus.”
In a follow up, Azalea had a message for Taylor:
”Taylor, this guy is gonna give you scabies. He’s not on the level of powerful puss u worked HELLA Hard To build. Ugh, so many much cooler. People in music to work with. You should really Tap James Mercer from The Shins…James Mercer is honestly one the best lyricists ever. Yessss.
Taylor Swift with ‘Black Wave’ ‘Australia’ by The Shins vibes is the TEA sis. Ugh this dude is a full incel. You cannot be letting him climb the rich white Coochie mountain sis.”
