It's no secret that power couple Jay-Z and Beyonce aren't one of Azealia Banks' favourite duos. Now that the latter is gearing up to unveil Act II of her RENAISSANCE album series, the "212" hitmaker is making it known that she's not supporting Bey exploring genres outside her usual repertoire. "Wow, we didn't even try to put even a little effort into a more artistic title?" Banks asked on her Instagram Story. "Sis, I live for Whiteyonce Donatella Bianca Bardot DOWN, but I'm kind of ashamed at how [you] switch from Baobab trees and Black Parade to this literal pick me stuff."
The New Yorker then called the "Halo" artist out for previously supporting the embattled Dixie Chicks, "who would never do the same for [her]." According to Banks, Bey too often shares her "platform with White women who are so jealous of [her] but have such a long history of sabotaging other Black women's careers." In particular, the infamous social media troll is taking issue with the "White woman cosplay" we've seen the Houston native in lately, such as her platinum blonde hair and themed outfits.

As for Beyonce's husband, Banks had a message for him too. "Ugh, I'm so saddened by Jay-Z and his over strategizing everything [Bey does] to the point where it's clearly his influence and not the real Bianca Bardot... Someone tell Jay-Z his strategies are corny and Beyonce has better ideas... We would like to see her outside without him and his pound puppy dreadlocks breathing all over herrrrrrr."
