The passing of DMX has found many sending their condolences to the rapper’s family while speaking highly of his legacy. Azealia Banks took to Instagram to speak about the less-highlighted aspects of rapper’s lives, focusing on mental health and issues with substance abuse.
The rapper talked about how record labels are careless and don’t offer their artists help to get better. Banks said, “I've had times in my career when my fans were telling me to go get help Azealia. I couldn't f**king afford it.” Banks then talked about drugs and used Travis Scott as an example of labels profit off the abuse issues of rappers.
Banks went on to say, “All I'm saying is this s**t has to f**king change. You look at these rap n***as right now like look at f**king Travis Scott, okay.” She continued, “Nobody's stepping in to f**king intervene with Travis Scott, you got enablers, you probably got f**king, tour managers, going to get the f**king lean and going to get the Percocet so this n***a can sit in the studio and make more money for y'all crackers.” Banks also spoke on DMX, saying the rapper cried out for help while the record label he was with "f**ked him out of his money."
