Azealia Banks has slammed pop stars Taylor Swift, Miley Cyrus and Nicki Minaj on Twitter, saying they make "basic" music.
The 27-year-old singer, in a Twitter rant, asked if Cyrus is making fun of herself with her music and called Swift and Minaj "basic", reported Digital Spy.
"It's so funny to wake up and see nicki and Miley or nicki and taylor fighting when you ALL make basic music. All of y'all are whack and make boring music and rip all ur styles off the downtown NYC girls," she tweeted.
Several micro-blogging site users replied about all the times Banks has called herself a fan of Minaj, with one attaching screenshots of her past tweets.
Banks replied that she thinks Minaj is an "incredible" artist, it's just Banks is "better".
