Recently professed actress and singer Azealia may be pushing a new image, but she continued to prove that old habits die hard on Saturday [June 25], when she reignited her beef with T.I. by ripping into the Atlanta rapper over his anti-Trump crusade. In an Instagram post that conotes that Tip is iliterate, Azealia warns fans against listening to a word he says concerning the election, or anything for that matter. "Someone PLEASE take the thesaurus away from t.i...," she wrote, introducing his criminal record, alleged threats against women, and endorsement of Iggy Azalea as a "run away slave master," before countering his #FuckTrump2016 hashtag with #trump2016. "No one should be looking to t.i for insight of any kind," she said.
Azealia's rant was in response to a comment T.I. wrote under his Instagram posting of a screenshot of a New York Daily News article about an old rape lawsuit resurfacing against the Republican Presidential nominee. "If y'all vote for him U voting for the upper echelon of the scum of the earth," he wrote. She expressed resentment over being scrutinized for inflammatory remarks she has made over the years while male rappers in the industry get away with being poor role models. She then proceeds to continue to badger him, expending a considerable amount of focus on his role in the Roots remake, saying "No respectable black person in 2016 should be playing a slave on film."
It isn't the first time Azealia and Tip have found themselves on opposite ends of a public spat. Tempers first flared between them in 2012 when T.I. came to the defense of Iggy Azalea after the former Miss Bank$ sparked a feud over XXL's selection of his Aussie artist for the cover of their 5th annual Freshman Special issue. They got into again in 2014, after a tirade in which Azalea degraded his wife, Tiny, and invited him to scrap.
She concluded her message Saturday by rehashing old wounds and admitting to finding joy in trolling her adversary. "Sorry, this is sidebar and I'm TOTALLY being a petty hater (lol) but t.i is literally an idiot, i love picking on him, and he and everyone else needs to know that I am 10x more intelligent than he is or ever will be," she said. "He owes me a major apology for threatening me and for running his mouth off."
